I hate the rustbuckets MORE now. I hate their idiot colorblind bandwagon fans, I hate the revisionist history involved with XL* (and XLIII*, for that matter -- they got a huge referee assist in that game too), I hate the rapist, I hate Rooney and his racist rule, I hate their stupid lopsided helmets, and I hate the favoritism they get from league and media.jkitsune":2ck8r4en said:I hate the Steelers a little bit less now that we won XLVIII, but XL itself still makes me nauseous.
I sports-hate the digits.
I hate-hate the rustbuckets.
I suppose I should say something about the game, eh? It nauseates me too. I tried to watch it one time, because I remember how we dominated them. Just like against the Donkos, the rustbuckets couldn't get a 1st down until the game was a third of the way finished. We manhandled them. But once I started watching, there was the phantom OPI, the bad spot on Mack Strong's 3rd down run, the uncalled horsecollar tackle on Shaun Alexander, the phantom TD...
When I watched the game at a sports bar, the rustbucket fans who were there had enough sense to know we'd been screwed. When I shook their hands to congratulate them, many of them had their heads hanging, and there was no bravado at all, no boasting, no bragging, nothing. That really didn't get started until later.
I still daydream about tieing Mike Perierra to a chair, making him watch the game again, and tazing him in the nuts on every bad call (and non-call) in the game he said was well officiated.
