Super Bowl XLIII

Eagles 25, Cardinals 32: After jumping out to 24-6 halftime lead, the Cardinals laid down a little bit and let the Eagles think they were on the verge of some kind of epic comeback. But it was all for naught as Arizona had a beautiful seven minute drive in the 4th quarter that pretty much iced the game. You already had the feeling that Mr. Vomit wasn’t gonna do it this time, and he pulled through.

The real story of the postseason is the emergence of Larry Fitzgerald as perhaps the top wide receiver in the game right now. He had a monster game yesterday, catching 9 balls for 152 yards and scoring 3 touchdowns. Supposedly this locks up a Hall of Fame induction for Kurt Warner, but who gives a shit about that? Canton sucks anyway.

A lot of people thought that the Eagles were gonna coast through this one. Jason Whitlock was one of those. Let’s see if he writes a retraction because clearly McNabb is a loser. You think he’s gonna lay low this summer, especially after flukeboi Eli gets his $100 million dollar extention? Enjoy the offseason contract drama, Philly.

Ravens 14, Steelers 23: Yet another AFC borefest. I could only watch this game for a few minutes at a time – I could barely stomach the offensive ineptitude. Anyway, Fetch’s hero Joe Flacco went 13-30 for 141 yards and 3 interceptions, one of which was returned for a touchdown. Ben Roethlisberger didn’t totally suck. He went 16-33 for 255 yards and 1 TD toss.

I’m not gonna lie. I want Arizona to win this Super Bowl. I can’t stand the thought of the Steelers and their filthy, ugly fanbase having more Super Bowl rings than the Cowboys (and the 49ers, I guess). Also, I wouldn’t mind the thought of old man Rooney keeling over because Whisenhunt beat his main man Tomlin. Not that I want him to die, per se, but I think his kids are squabbling over ownership rights and if he passed early there would be a huge inheritance clusterfuck and then maybe the franchise could be contracted. Maybe.

The early line is Steelers -7. Who you got?

Bonus NBA coverage
Miami 104, OKC 94: Dwyayne Wade went off with 32 points and 10 assists and Udonis Haslem had 15 boards to lead the Heat to the win. Kevin Durant had 31 points and went 3-5 from outside the arc, but it wasn’t enough. The Thunder were still probably celebrating their victory over the suck-ass Pistones on Friday.

Suns 117, Raptors 113: Yawn.
