Because they cheated so much?
I can't believe what this team got away with last year

I can see most agree with me. There should be an Asterick by there name because of the questions and stink around this team!

WE didn't cheat!!! Of course there were some bad calls, but that happens in most games, with most teams! The Steelers were gonna make it to the Superbowl either way (Cuz in the Playoffs we either kicked a**, or got lucky cuz the other team blew it A.K.A. the Colts). If anything the Superbowl was boring, but we didn't cheat. And even if Ben's touchdown didn't "break the plane" we still would've won! SO GET OVER IT AND GET USED TO IT cuz the Steelers are gonna be back for Superbowl XLI!!!!

Another Seattle whiner? How original.
Look at the records. Pgh. had the most wins of any team for the last 3 years combined AND THEY JUST KEEP GETTING BETTER. 98% of the veterans are back.
If you think last year was a fluke wait till the dust settles on this season. They are still hungry. And what better motivation will they have than the possible retirement of their Hall of Fame coach after the season.
Holmgren took himself out of the Super Bowl with his crying about perceived bad calls. He was out coached by a class act and organization.
Fergeddabout. Seattle won't be a factor this year. They will have a real schedule to contend with.

No! The reason why is because in every sport there are going to be mistakes by officials, luck (both good and bad) and good play and bad play. Did the Steelers get lucky? Maybe! Did the officials blow some calls? Probably! Those things happen. Should we put asterisks next to all games that are controversial? I think not. For one thing, there would way too many games with asterisks, devaluing the hard work put in by the winners.

They didn't cheat. Its the refs that did the bad officiating on some questionable calls. I admit that was the worst superbowl I have ever seen. Afterwards I felt like the whole thing was unresolved somehow. It wasn't clear cut to me. I was rooting for the seahawks (who aren't even my team but I really like them) and I think they got kind of robbed... But hey The Steelers won the superbowl. It can't be change. You kind of just have to be happy for them. I kind of feel bad in a way that the game was a mess. Because they did have a heck of a season and it was kind of cool for Bettis's last year. You just forget about it and root for your team the next season.
GO BRONCOS!

In the eyes of every non homer steeler fan it'll always be the most tainted championship in the history of the NFL.

no, i admit they did get some VERY good calls. if they didn't get the calls they may not have won and the seahawks did get robbed but they were good enough to get there. ok maybe half an asterick

refs are part of the game. if you think they are soo bad that you accuse a team of cheating, then maybe you should become one and then you can come on here every week and try to explain why you make dumb a$$ calls yourself
