I respect a team that knows who it is. Decades pass, coaches change, but you can count on the Steelers to operate a power run game, play great defence while blitzing like hell, be one of the toughest teams around, and win games. The Pittsburgh front office deserves credit for having the guts to hire Mike Tomlin over steady in-house talent Ken Whisenhunt. Whisenhunt is certainly no slouch himself as he’ll be on the opposite sideline in Tampa. I also respect the fact that the organization has long stayed away from prima donna players and off-the-field drama.
Don’t get me wrong, I’m still not a fan, but I have to admit that no matter what happens on Super Bowl Sunday this year’s Steelers are a more deserving champion than the Cinderalla Cardinals. Arizona rode a weak schedule and a hot QB-WR tandem to the big game and they may well win the way they’re playing, but the Steelers have been tough all year against a killer schedule.
In trying to be fair and balanced, I should also point out that the Steelers have hideous uniforms and that it just seems downright wrong that their goofy-looking QB gets to date women like this and this.
