truth on hold Posted February 6, 2006 Author Posted February 6, 2006 The worst call was the phantom holding call on Seattle on the pass to the 1 yard line. The interferece call was at least in plain site, although a very ticky tack call. 596139[/snapback] the whole thing looked stage, including the bettis retirement speech. throughout the night an eery feeling grew that i was watching a movie where the end had already been determined rather than a fair contest with the outcome in the balance
IDBillzFan Posted February 6, 2006 Posted February 6, 2006 You know, if you had Pittsburgh -4, you wouldn't be complaining about this. You'd be embracing it.

Catholic Guilt Posted February 6, 2006 Posted February 6, 2006 Every time there seemed to be a big call to setback a team, it was against Seattle. Offensive pass interference takes away TD. Ben Rothlisberger TD allowed despite replay. Holding call on big Peter Warrick return. Terrible holding call on Stevens pass to 1 yard line. No call of Porter horse-collar. Would have been a huge bailout personal foul 1st down. Brutal personal foul call against Hasselback who actually made a clean tackle. Even the Hassebeck non-fumble, it was as if the refs WANTED it to be a fumble. Big Ben calls time out with play clock at zero, they give him timeout anyway.
BuckeyeBill Posted February 6, 2006 Posted February 6, 2006 Will it tarnish the victory? That's stupid! No way! Ask any Pittsburgh fan and they could care less what everyone things. They are world champions, they deserve it... everybody knows they deserve it. Congrats Steelers.
