I may not be an expert on football, but watching the Super Bowl at my brother's house seemed to - most of all - have been a potentially great (i.e. close and exciting) game marred by horrible officiating. He is an expert in football, and he was apoplectic.
The Steeler's first touchdown - questionable. The Seahawk's first touchdown called back for pass interference - not questionable, but a bit of a BS call. The Seahawk's second touchdown called back for holding - where? - a horrible call. The Seahawk's QB called for clipping when he was really tackling - bad call. We agreed that if the Seahawk's QB's loss of the ball in the 4th quarter (it popped out when he hit the ground on a run) was called a fumble, we'd turn off the game. Fortunately, the call was reversed on review.
Annoying, at best.

Here are some quick tips for adding simple Textile formatting to your comments, though you can also use proper HTML tags:
*This* puts text in bold.
_This_ puts text in italics.
bq. This "bq." at the beginning of a paragraph, flush with the left hand side and with a space after it, is the code to indent one paragraph of text as a block quote.
To add a live URL, "Text to display":http://windsofchange.net/ (no spaces between) will show up as Text to display. Always use this for links - otherwise you will screw up the columns on our main blog page.
