a few things:
jaz, congrats. i was gonna be all resentful and stuff, but i figure that it would be best if i didn't mention the fact that the steelers most likely would have lost if they had to go through foxboro. or that the team they beat in the superbowl, the seahawks, were largely untested throughout the year and, thus, this game was won at the outset. also, there was the fact that the referees clearly had money on pittsburg. there's also the fact that cowher wanted to win this to give the trophy to the owner, something he did... after 14 years! and that jerome bettis displayed poor class but stealing the moment to announce his retirement. but, im not gonna do that. your boys played some serious football in the postseason and definitely deserved to win. it was a nice moment to see the raw emotion in cowhers face after the win. so enjoy man. its a nice feeling.
but, did mike holmgren stand up cowher at the end of the game for the handshake? they showed cowher on the field yelling 'wheres mike?' and they had the camera on him for what seemed like a minute. each passing second brought about a more angered look. then they cut to commercial. next thing the viewers see is cowher on the podium. they never mentioned what happened though...
