May I just say YES! regarding the Steelers’ victory in the Superbowl last night?
Having spent four years in Pittsburgh for college, I have to say I have become a Steelers sympathizer/fan. (My dad’s team is the Jets, however, so when they’re in the post-season, I have to admit I’m rooting for them.) I’m not really big into professional sports but having played organized sports throughout my childhood and teen years, I definitely get caught up in the adrenaline rush of a really big, fun sporting event pretty easily. And last night, sitting in a room of college alumni and Steelers fans here in New York, I definitely caught the fever. That fourth quarter was probably the most exciting quarter of a super bowl I’ve seen in years, moreso because of all of the Steelers fans in the room and their expressive reactions.
I haven’t yet heard if there were riots in Pittsburgh this time…hopefully not… heh…

/ 2 February 2009OMG that game was nuts. I was a HUGE Harrison fan for MVP until he started beating up that Cardinal… :( But then Santonio Holmes stole the show, and it was kind of like, okay, he should get it.
We watched with several CMU alums and one girl screamed so loud when they won that I thought I was going to go deaf…
