Your Super Bowl Champions: The Pittsburgh Steelers

Congratulations to the Pittsburgh Steelers, as they are Super Bowl Champions. They defeated the Cardinals, 27-23, thanks to a Ben Roethlisberger touchdown to Santino Holmes with less than a minute left in the contest.

The Cardinals came back from an 11-point deficit to take the lead in the 4th quarter; however, Roethlisberger engineered yet another drive to win the game for Steeler nation.

Arizona fought valiantly after being down at halftime as Warner was excellent, and Larry Fitzgerald suddenly became a factor; alas, the playmaking of Roethlisberger was too much for them to overcome. Both teams fought -- and I mean hard -- on Sunday evening, and I'm sure this game is destined to be a classic.

The championship for Pittsburgh is their sixth in NFL history -- a record.

And yes, did Bruce Springsteen put on a show, or what?

Your NFC Champions -- The Arizona Cardinals

Could the improbable now become possible? Yes, it looks my prediction about the Cardinals was wrong as they are headed to the Super Bowl after their 32-35 victory in the NFC Championship..

Philadelphia was off big time until the second half, while Arizona has started off well -- especially Larry Fitzgerald -- and still have a good size lead heading into the first half. The Eagles put up 13 points in the third quarter, but the Cardinals held on and Donovan McNabb could not finish the potential comeback.

Again, can anyone believe the Cardinals -- a team, for the most part of their history out West that has been mediocre -- in the Super Bowl? If the Rays got to the World Series, the Cardinals can win the Super Bowl -- right?

Can You Believe This? The Eagles & Cardinals in The NFC Championship?

Everyone, raise your hands -- I mean raise them real high -- if you any of you picked either the Eagles or the Cardinals to play in the NFC Championship. I sure as hell didn't.

The Philadelphia Eagles beat the New York Giants 20-14 this afternoon up I-95 in New Jersey, and then Cardinals whooped up on Carolina Panthers last night, 33-13.

I'm stunned. Between the Ravens win and what happened this weekend, I don't know what to expect next week. I really hope Pittsburgh loses; however, I don't see that happening against the Chargers.

It should be one hell of a game for Baltimore next week, assuming Pittsburgh wins.
