On the way back, Pack!

Aaron Rodgers came out focused. He got the Packers off to a fast start. You have to make Pittsburgh play catch up. Ben did a great job of coming back and keeping it close. I'm very happy for Aaron. I've always been impressed with the way he has handled himself, even with the Favre situation a few years back. He waited his turn as the backup and never complained or said anything negative. He has always been a class act, so I'm happy that he was awarded with the MVP.

I'm in a limo right now. We finally got out from the Super Bowl. It's a great stadium, but entering and exiting was tough with 100,000 people. Thank God it wasn't raining or snowing. Although my shoes got muddy. I'm going to have to send Jerry the bill. The game itself was so much fun, though. The atmosphere inside was great. There was a lot of energy and the Black Eyed Peas put on a great performance. Lots of celebrities too. They put the camera on guys like Ashton Kutcher and George Bush, and they even showed my teammates Ronnie Lot and Steve Young on that big screen!

We gotta game! Have met some great fans, they remember those Super Bowls in the 80s, and that's a gratifying part of today, bringing all generations of fans together. "Can you play again, Roger?" Heard that a few times tonight! How great would it be to play in this stadium?

Anyone watching the Ronnie Raygun documentary?

What an awful president he was.

I am not a fan of either team, but I must say that I am GLAD that the Steelers lost! The refs did all they could to give them that game, though. I don't know which penalty call was worse, the phantom face mask called on GB, or the personal foul on a GB player that pushed a Steeler player AFTER several Steeler players tried to push him towards touching a live ball during a punt return (no personal foul on that, though). Refs couldn't come through for them in THIS Super Bowl..

It’s obvious a few of the players could use a raise, maybe just enough to get a hair cut.

I almost turned off the TV when Fox went on it's uber-patriot trip at the beginning. I was done watching the game just after the 3rd quarter started. The commercials sucked. I repeat, they SUCKED. X-tina's SSB "rendition" was pretty embarrassing. The whole thing was pretty bad. The halftime show was OK.

Congrats to the Pack and their fans on a great season. They will be especially tough next season at full strength.

Sorry Steeler fans (great tradition there too) but God is a Green Bay Packer Fan. That's the 13th major title for the Pack, with lots of wins going back before there was a Super Bowl. Titletown indeed!
06:51 AM on 02/07/2011
Except Pitt. Has six sb rings who many does pack have? Congratulations to pack this year.

Yeah, you darn Packers fans are 4 ahead on the title count of us Bears fans. Oh well, I guess second all time will have to do for now.

     The disgracefully staged propaganda event between our puppet president and foreign-owned aristocratic media  was followed by a display of a battle of titans with both opponents making a good showing for their team.   The half time program is a metaphor for the fear, anger and mayhem of the American people trapped on their sinking ship of state with the captain providing heilcopters for first class and  nobody providing life rafts for the commoners.

A winning team (the packers) don't need fans like you.
