    C'mon, Harrison did a punk move. He should have been ejected.

    The Steeler cockyness nearly cost them the game.

    He's going to get fucking riped for that. He deserves a suspension to start the season off, on top of a huge fine.

    Fucking prick move.

    Yes, heinousness.

    What he did was despicable and way over the line. Two punches, two late hits, holding him down, taunting, you name it. Hell, he did enough for five unnecessary roughness calls.

    You would never agree because you're a Steelers fan and you obviously love Harrison, but it is what it is.

    Thanks for the $100 bucks, but I'm done watching this sport. Might as well watch the WWE. Cardinals were the better team. 2nd time now I've watched a rigged Superbowl favoring Pitt. Enjoy your Pro Wrestling boys, I'm off to Pro Hoops and Pro Baseball

    there were a few bad calls and overall the officiating definitely favored Pittsburgh, but if you could survive XL, you can survive this.

    Super Bowl XL was much worse.

    The calls in this game were mostly defensible.

    Well, we lost Bynum for the year it looks like. Unless we draw Boston we won't beat CLE or ORL without Drew. Still got the Dodgers though, Dodgers division sucks :beer:

    Giants are looking good this season. If we steal Manny, I think Frisco has it zipped up.

    I would be in a deep depression right now if that was the Jets. I would be proud of my team no doubt. Prolly would shed a few tears. I also would wonder how the Jets played Pittsburgh in the Super Bowl with both being AFC teams. Okay, that was a dumb joke.

    The only thing that would make this vid better, is if #47 or #5 would have kicked him square in the balls "accidently."

    It's not indefensible...but at the same time did it not occur when Harrison was a blocker on a kickoff coverage unit?

    Dude, get your head out of your ass. Yea, you guys won. But you can't defend Harrison on that if you know anything about football. He is breaking almost every rule in the book on that play. Holding, unsportsmanlike conduct, personal foul, illegal block to the back, late hit, etc. etc. Enjoy your win (although if I was you I wouldn't even enjoy it considering how classless your team played, you guys didn't deserve to win), be happy for your players but don't defend thuggery in the NFL you homer. You stay classy, Pittsburgh (barf).

    And what in the hell are you doing on a JET message board after your team just won the Superbowl? Shouldn't you be at a party, or at least, you know, on a STEELER message board.

    What the hell? That entire video occurred after the play was blown dead.

    Steeler message board crashed....

    And yeah the more I look at the replay the more I don't like the play. But the rest of the team played classy.

    No you see Mewelde Moore running around to get under the ball and players still running to make a play.

    Again I agree there was a lot that crossed the line in this video...and Harrison will get fined from the league.

    you're right about when the play ended. I got that wrong, although one could say that the argument that what Harrison did is part of the normal flow of the game makes it even worse.

    Maybe next year Pacman can knife a wide receiver and then say he was just doing his job and trying to prevent the guy he was covering from making a play.

    Here's what someone else said on another board:

    "Yeah lets eject players for blocking. The play was still going on and players are allowed to use their hands in order to keep an opposing player from advancing down the field in that situation last time I checked. Later in the game I saw him tackle a perfectly innocent guy who happened to be carrying a football. Ban him for life!"


    The whole thing just stinks worse because of people trying to defend it.
