Urgent: Need help
I need your guys' help. Remember back after the Superbowl WIN vs the Seahags? A very nice write-up was made and every time a Hag fan came in here crying and whining about officiating, we hit them with a reply that had the "the refs didn't give up the longest run play in Superbowl History.." .. " The refs didn't throw the ball that led to Hines Ward's TD catch on a trick play" etc etc, and it was followed up with a bottle of Seahawk "Whine"
Anybody got that somewhere or can find it? Thanks.

Here you go.
20 Reasons Seattle Can't Blame the Refs (final copy)
________________________________________
1. On plays when there wasn't any penalties...one team made plays...one team didn't.
2. The Refs didn't give up the longest run in SB history.............................Seattle did.
3. The Refs didn't get fooled on a 43 yd trick play, Randle to Ward for a TD, Seattle did.
4. The Refs didn't miss two field goals....................................................Seattle did.
5. The Refs didn't drop 4 very catchable balls in key situations, that was Seattle's TE.
6. When the same Seattle TE finally caught a pass, he took 3 steps, was hit by the Safety and fumbled. But luckily for Seattle, "the Refs" ruled it incomplete.
7. The Refs didn't carelessly let the 1st half clock tick from 48 seconds ALL THE WAY DOWN to 13 seconds before FINALLY running their next play................Seattle did.
8a. And now, 54 yds from a FG, 13 secs left, Seattle foolishly heaved it deep, trying for a TD rather than a shorter play & timeout to set up an easier FG try which then missed by just a few feet.
8b. 2nd half, 50 yds from a FG on 3rd down, Seattle boneheadedly does the same thing again, they fling it deep, ignoring trying to get a little closer for the FG which again missed by just a few feet.
9a. 3rd & 28, Pitt's QB makes a play scrambling/completing a 37 yd pass to Seattle's 2.
9b. 3rd & 18, Sea's QB misreads the zone defense & throws an interception at Pitt's 5.
10. Speaking of 3rd downs, Pitt was great then with plays like the 37 yarder above, QB runs when nobody was open, a nifty shovel pass, a shoestring catch by Ward, etc.
...However...Seattle was only 5 for 17 then with plays like the INT above, dropped passes, wrecklessly going deep in short yardage situations, etc.
11. Even Pitt helped Sea. when WR Ward dropped an easy TD in the endzone.
12. Even Pitt helped Sea. when CB Taylor dropped an easy INT early in the game.
13. Even Pitt helped Sea. when QB Big Ben tossed a gift-wrapped INT, with a Pittsburgh WR wide open in the endzone for a TD that would've put Pitt up 21 - 3.....21 - 3 !!!
14. & on this play, the Refs helped Sea too, for no flag thrown on #94 for blocking Pitt's QB blatantly in the back, giving Sea. the ball at Pitt's 19 instead of the Sea. 45 !
15. The mean ol' Refs helped Sea. again with no flag thrown on Sea's center for leveling Pitt's DE after the play was over. Hmm, ESPN recalls these plays, somehow Sea doesn't.
16. Who failed to step out of bounds to stop the clock late in both halves.......Seattle.
17. Who kept punting deep through the endzone giving Pitt the ball at the 20, Seattle.
18. Late in the game, needing a TD and FG, no particular order & currently in easy FG range on 4th down, who again went for the TD, losing the ball & game...........Seattle.
19. Who outrushed Seattle & contained their star RB Alexander (the NFL's leading rusher), just enough to force several 3rd downs...Pittsburgh.
20. "Seattle...the sum total of all the above, your bad coaching decisions & clock mismanagement, breaks on big Pitt mistakes, breaks from the Refs...& your inability to make big plays adds up to...NO EXCUSES !!!"
Congratulations to the World Champion Pittsburgh Steelers & nice job rolling through the #1...#2...#3 seeds IN THEIR OWN BACKYARDS & overcoming the worst officiated game in the playoffs, at Indi, by overcoming adversity & making plays.

Re: Urgent: Need help
This is the only one I could find on the web. I've also got a jpeg that shows the whole bottle but I'm not sure how to upload it here. If you want to shoot me a PM with your e-mail address, I'll send it to you

Re: Urgent: Need help
That's it. Cracks me up everytime. Some dumbass is pulling the ol' switch-er-oo on me because I told him that that SD didn't even deserve to be there. He said if you want to play that, then Pittsburgh robbed the Superbowl, and didn't deserve the Title 3 years ago and that...brace yourself... the refs jobbed the game.
I was sick and tired of beating the dead horse with this, so I pulled out the big guns. Good stuff. Thanks.
