OT - Super Bowl XLIII 

Post#1 » by mkwest » Sun Feb 1, 2009 10:05 pm

Who are you pulling for today?

I'm going with the Cardinals. Warner has been the man, Fitz is that dude period. The Cardinals have been the underdogs and met every challenge with a victory so far. The fact that this organization is at the big dance is an accomplishment in itself. It gives me hope that the Clippers will one day have that opportunity.

I stopped watching football years ago, but I usually cheer for the underdog. I remember Arizona being one of the worst teams in the league back in the days. So I guess I'll go for them. Won't be watching the game though. :P

Super Bowl Sunday is a holiday second to only Christmas in my family. I was raised in a football family (my dad played and then coached for years), and I don't even know what the world looks like during the game. Never in my life have I seen daylight during the big game!

As a 49ers fan, its rough for me to root for another NFC West team, but I am picking the Cardinals. I've always considered them the Clippers of the NFL, like mkwest eluded to, so its hard to not wish them the best :). I think this game will be decided by the last possession, a field goal kick to put the Cardinals over the Steelers 24-21.

I'm also going for Cardnals. I'd like to see them win something, I'm also surrounded by Steeler and Eagle fans. It get's kinda annoying to me
I've been an LA Clipper fan since 1998 and that will never change. I hate our new logo and jerseys!

Great game, great fourth quarter. Too bad the Cardnals couldn't pull it out.

It was an exciting finish to the game. I was glad to see Arizona make it a game in the 4th. They dug a hole for themselves with all of the penalties, but giving up the Harrison touchdown totally cost them.

Amazing game. Not just that it was close, but I don't remember a recent game with so many big plays. Heck, there were 2 HUGE potentially game-changing penalties in the 4th (the running into the kicker, and the hold that resulted in the safety.)
