Like almost half of America last night at around 6:30 I made my way to the room with the big screen T.V. to watch the big game. Their was food galore to pick at when I got hungry and company to enjoy this festive event with. The clash was between the Pittsburgh Steelers and the Arizona Cardinals. For the record I was going for the underdogs: the Cardinals. Personally, Im a huge Patriots fan but since they werent in the big game I went with the next big choice. Over the next three hours I watched and cheered on a team that looked like it had no chance in the world to win this thing. The score had been 17 to 7 Pittsburgh leading. And then like magic the Cardinals made some amazing moves and they were back in the game with less than a minute to go with a lead of 23 to 20. I was shocked and thought how cool is this, I might have the chance to see the greatest Super Bowl upset and comeback all in one game. However, that was not to be. With 35 seconds left in the game Ben Roethlisberger made an amazing pass to Santonio Holmes to put the Steelers in the lead and secure their 6 Super Bowl victory(most of any team in the NFL). While I was disappointed in the end result of who had one, I was the most satisfied I have been in a long time with the level of competition in the big game itself. Both teams gave it all it had and in the end put on one hell of a show. Congrats to the Pittsburgh Steelers on a job well done, and to the Arizona Cardinals who never gave up even when things looked bad.
