And U Call It A Win ??

So the Pittsburg Steelers won, haan!! Is there anybody who cares if the Seattle Seahawks did not take home the victory? They played well and gave their best. If you had a closer look at the game, the Steelers got their first touchdown by sheer luck or call it sheer badluck for the Seahawks. I for one, think that is not fair and puts a lot of unwanted pressure on the opponents. Six points, a touchdown, are jumbo points in a Final game. Its not a child's play. Common. Why do we have replays? Why to we have huge screens and all this gone-wasted-not-utilized technology for? Can't we have a fair game? To come to think of it, if Steelers would not have got those brownie points, we might be telling a different story. Thats American football raising some eyebrows here in US. Frankly speaking, wasn't a great game. There you go again...with the another not-so-fair-for-the-game cricket news. Pakistan was declared a winner by the Duckworth/Lewis method. Why? If the game was not feasible, let the situation be like that? Allow the players to get a bonus chance to win themselves and for sure not a bonus win going by some crappy rules.

It is in the interest of the game and the loyalty of the game fans that we have it played Fair. So whats a fair game? Atleast those people who made such profound rules did not really think about it. What the heck? The rules are their to support a fair game and not the opposite, right? Ultimately, what counts is the WIN, and not the effort. How many people really care to atleast genuinely appreciate the effort the runners up (not losers, it takes a big deal to make an entry into the finals) put into the game?

I do. No kidding. And thats why this rule-lambasting! Lolz.

This has been a season of bad refereeing in big football games - Texas got a free touchdown early enough to make mighty USC buckle up, now the Seahawks get a nasty decision......I guess thats just what it is and theres nothing you can do about it.

I don't think the SeaHawks were even comparable to the Steelers - for the amount of yardage they had, they couln't convert squat...I guess Colts or Broncos woulve made atleast 14 more points with that much time in the red zone.

Atleast there is no Duckworth Lewsisgiri in football ...lol

An Indian female football fan !!! Now thats a rarity. And a Pittsburgh hater too (I maybe stretching it a bit here). Welcome to the club nonetheless.

hey Suji! :-)

As it goes in reality, Steelers won.
Nothing else matters.

Such finer details are
often disputed
always ignored when they mattered
and finally,
actually matter the least

What if tomorrow you get to know that the whole thing was fixed from the very start :-)

Solution: Cheer with the world :-)
