nicknc33,

I like your defense of the 'Hawks, but I can just see that if the Seahawks beat the Steelers there will still be a large group of folks whose first response will be "How did the Steelers lose to the Seahawks? The NFC sucks!" (because we all know that at least half of the AFC would kick the Seahawks ass). But I say screw them all! After the Seahawks win the big one in two weeks, anyone who still maintains that they weren't the best team in the NFL will be revealed as utterly full of crap! "Just win baby!" that's what its all about!

Go Seahawks! 24-21 over the Steelers!

I want the Steelers to win, but best of luck to Rodney Bailey since he is a Buckeye. The reason I want the Steelers to win is because when they play the Bengals and the Bengals win, we will have more glory. It is just like rooting for the Longhorns in the NC game. Because when Ohio State beats em next year MORE GLORY!

Good week for Cowher so far...

Cowher's daughter Lauren scores 1,000th career point

It's been a good week for the Cowher family. Fox Chapel senior guard Lauren Cowher scored her 1,000th career point Monday -- a day after her father, Bill, coached the Steelers to their sixth Super Bowl appearance.
With Bill and his wife, Kaye, looking on, Lauren reached the milestone early in the first quarter. Her younger sister, Lindsay, a freshman forward, assisted on the layup.
Lauren is the fifth girl in school history and first since her older sister, Meagan, in 2003-04 to hit the century mark.

"It was nice, because when Meagan got her 1,000th point, I was the first one who embraced her," Lauren said. "It was the same with Lindsay. It was kind of neat."
Lauren scored a game-high 16 points and now has 1,012 points in her career.
Bill reverted from coach to dad mode yesterday.
"It was deja vu," Bill said. "Lauren assisted on Meg's, and Lindsay assisted on Lauren's. It's very ironic how that unfolded."
However, Lauren's highlight came during a 41-36 loss to Seneca Valley in a Section 3-AAAA game.
The fourth-place Foxes dropped to 5-4 in section and 10-7 overall, while second-place Seneca Valley improved to 7-2 and 13-4. The top four finishers in each section make the WPIAL playoffs.
"It would have been better if we had come out with the 'W,' " said Lauren, borrowing a line from her dad's news conferences. "It was a good day in the house yesterday. Now, we're in the same situation (the Steelers) have been in before. There's no margin for error."
Fox Chapel tied the game, 32-32, at the beginning of the fourth quarter before Seneca Valley pulled away. Chelsey Pavlick scored 11 points, and Kelsey Spencer added 10 points.
"It's a big win for us," Seneca Valley coach Todd Schoeffel said. "And I'm really happy for Lauren. She's had a nice career at Fox Chapel."
After Lauren scored her 1,000th point, the game was stopped, and she was presented with the basketball. Some fans broke into chants of "Here we go, Steelers, here we go!"
Later, Bill was seen proudly holding the basketball while sitting at the top of the bleachers with Kaye. He also signed autographs for fans during breaks in the action.
"It was a great honor for a kid that's worked as hard as she has," Fox Chapel coach Jeremy Bennett said.

I understand what you're saying, however to me that's just another case of the Seahawks not getting credit. I guess they were just handed the last 12 games and a trip to the Super Bowl. This team plays excellent team football and deserves to be there.

I'll bet you think they deserved credit when they "beat" the Giants at home, too when the Giants' kicker missed 3 field goals that would've won it. :biggrin: . Seriously, though, the Seahawks didn't do anything to impress me on Sunday. The Steelers, on the other hand, have looked good the past two weeks.

Actually, I thought that Giants game was hysterical-of course I'm glad they pulled it out regardless of how ugly it was. But can you really hold the 3 misses against the Seahawks?
Nothing to impress you? Nothing at all? What about the way they shut down Steve Smith (with the exception of the "punt return")? The way they put up 34 points on Carolina's D? The way Alexander gained 132 yds and 2 scores? The way Hasselbeck completed over 70% of his passes and spread the ball around all day? Come on, there's got to be something....

That is a very good Seattle team and they will be up for the challenge, but in the end, as much as I hate Pukesburgh, they are on absolute fire. Those blitz packages are fookin nuts and are are a nightmare for opposing QBs. I will go on record saying that Troy Polamalu is the best defensive player in the NFL. A USC product and a Squealer:smash:, the worst of both worlds. As an objective football fan, I just think the innovative coaching and playcalling that they have going on and confidence is just too much for Seattle. I call Squealers 27-17. At least my pops will be happy. With that said...Go Seahawks. :biggrin:

I gotta go with the Steelers and Tiffin University grad Nate Washington. Maybe he can catch a TD in the Super Bowl! That be rad. He did catch one pass for a first down on the Steelers first TD drive. Also whats with the Steelers and northwest ohio guys anyways? Ben Rothlesburger from Findlay and Nate from Tiffin. You can't walk through the Findlay mall without seeing Rothlesburger shit plastered everywhere. He has reached God status. lol
