If the Pack wins, Rogers is MVP, and Favraro is finally put out to pasture. ---

The Steelers are sure as hell making a game out of this even with their mistakes. This just might be the first Superbowl to go to OT. ---

This would be a nice time for a Steelers takeaway. Kind of surprised the Packers started out with a pass play there ---

Argghhhh! they went for two! If they had kicked the extra point, and GB scored a field goal, and nobody scored again - I would win a quarter on my football squares!!! 😃 ---
