I posted this on the Steelers board. Just wanted to share it here. This game has the makings to be one of the best Super Bowl games of all time. May the best team win.

I have as much confidence as any other Super Bowl year that the Steelers will prevail. That said, I have this oddly calming feeling that should they lose I would be "OK" with it.

Let me explain myself. I've been married to my wife for 10 years. For the first 7 of those she was a Packer fan having been born and raised there. I enjoyed watching and rooting along with her. My first live Steelers game was a trip to Lambeau in 2005 where Steeler Nation was well represented I should add.

With her family still there we've made a number of trips back including one for Packers training camp meeting several players including a then very personable 2nd year Aaron Rodgers.

My wife since divorced the Packers realizing she was truly a Brett Favre fan but that's another story. By then I had come to respect the team and it's passionate faithful "working class fans."

Should the unthinkable happen tomorrow I can honestly believe I'll be able to sit back and say that the Steelers would have been bested by a talented and worthy opponent. They still wouldn't have Six Lombardi trophies and there would always be next season.

GO STEELERS!!!!

Good luck to you packinsteel.
I know quite a few of us on the board noticed her Favre love and for the most part we were fine with that.
I for one was sorry to see her leave the board after his demise.

Today Ed, you are the enemy. Until around 9pm Lambeau time anyway.

Good luck to you...but not too much!

And by the way, we will happily accept Heather back into the fold now that "the ol' Gunslinger," has holstered his six shooter for good. (albiet for a few more possible sexting pics)

I'll pass that along Tripp but doubtful she'll be back anytime soon.

As for today, honorable men in battle. May the best team win. Enjoy the game.

Hey PackinSteel, say hello to your wife for me. Miss her. She's always been one of my favorite posters.

My wife just rolls her eyes everytime I tell someone I hope it's a good game--I told her what my definition of a good game was: GB jumps out to a 21-0 lead in the 1st Q, on the way to a 42-0 spanking of the Steelers.

Anyway, I hope it's a good game... :smile:

I just hope she's not a Big Ben fan now.

Good luck to both fan bases -- just a little more to PACKER fans.

27-17 Green Bay. Woodson with a huge INT. Mark it.

William Henderson didn't have to run people over. His preferred method was levitation.
