Well...I did think it was cool that they got the longest play in history tonight, that was pretty cool.
But, I was waiting to see cool commercials, and they stunk.
Your right...all I wanted to see was Bruce Springsteen, and I thought it was cool to see Clarence Clemmons and Little Stephen on stage with him.

Actually I do think that it is cool that the Steelers won. I am from Pennsylvania. This is their 6th Superbowl , nobody else has ever done that.
I had a guy who stayed here at our B & B, who was friends with Joe Namath and he helped him get recruited.
So, even though I am not a football fan, I did think some of it was neat.
I liked the fireworks display too.
But....I feel like those commercials cost 1 million per second, and so you expect AWESOMENESS and they weren't, usually the Superbowl 1/2 time has such cool commercials, and we were all sitting here wondering what the big deal was with the 2 3D ones, because there was nothing to them.

I thought with the exception of Harrison's interception return right before halftime that the first three quarters were pretty boring and that the Steelers would blow out the Cardinals. But that fourth quarter turned it into one of the most exciting Super Bowls ever. That makes two years in a row that the Super Bowl lived up to its billing.

Helluva game! I was rooting for Arizona, and when Fitzgerald got that TD I thought they had a chance to win it, but I tip my hat to Big Ben for going down that field and getting the winnig score. I didn't think the game could be as good as last year, but it might have surpassed it. You couldn't ask for a better game, although I could have done without some of those penalties.

great, great game. it was heartbreaking, but i'm proud of the cards. they had a chance there in the 4th quarter,...i didn't know which way it was gonna go.
good job steelers, and congrats...BUT... a few dirty blows. not cool.
anyway, i loved the 3-D commercials. i can't wait to see the new G.I. Joe movie and the 3-D monsters vs. aliens. those commercials were pretty sweet.
i had heard that the budgets for the superbowl commercials were cut back because of the economy. if that was the case, good. the game was more exciting than the advertisements...good stuff.

All of Australia was supporting Arizona, because Ben Cousins is the first Aussie to play in a Superbowl. He was a really famous and popular Aussie rules footballer before moving to America to throw on the padding and helmut.

As I mentioned in the Springsteen tthread, I thought the Superbowl was an incredible game. I really thought Arizona showed tons of heart to keep coming back. In the end, I was impressed that the Steelers were able to make plays necessary to win the game. So congrats to any Steelers fans on here and great game to any Cardinals fans.
Springsteen is and always will be an entertainer. Ronnie, The Boss has probably been doing that stage slide for over 30 years, but unleashing it right into the camera was still very cool to watch. And I'm so ready to go see "Monsters vs Aliens" after that 3-D preview.
I thought the commericals were lackluster at best. Some were decent, but none left a truly lasting impression.

Probably the best commercial was the Budweiser spot of the horses eloping; it was rather amusing when the circus horse threw off her rather overweight rider to run off with her beau. Besides that it was hit and miss. Other than that, a very well played game that you expect from a Super Bowl (which has been largely the case this decade after the 80s and 90s were mostly yawners), although apparently there is a curse from the Pottsville Maroons on the Cardinals, and perhaps the best way to ensure another chance at the world title would be to just give in and let them have the 1925 title.

The only thing that looked 3D to me - was the ping pong paddle thing at the beginning.
I never understand when they show a man pull his pants down and sit on a Xerox machine- why that is funny.
Especially in a kids cartoon movie...I really can picture them doing that in a Walt Disney movie that Walt Disney actually made. NOT!
The G.I. Joe movie looks like it's the same thing as Transformers 2- they could morp all these movies together to be 1 giant movie.
