All I saw was him flopping around and a flag being thrown in front of him.
Sometimes, highlights aren't enough.

I watched the Patriots beat the Steelers today.  A couple of the calls seemed
really wrong, but when all was said and done, my team won.

        As I was waiting for the Simpsons to begin, the commentators
where saying that this was the *big* game while the Superbowl is
a reward for a conference championship.  The other returned with,
no, it's the goal to make it to the Superbowl and win the Superbowl.

        I can see where some of the logic comes from.  If the Patriots
walk all over the competition in the Superbowl, then I can see looking
back and saying the the conference championship was the "super" game
to have won, as the logic would be that the Steelers also may have
wiped the floor with the competition.

        Of the playoff games thusfar, which one was the best?
From you as a fan viewpoint, and as a toughest game to win 
basis.

The Patriots game was the first professional game I've watched in memory. 
I'm no judge.

Let's see who's old enough to be able to remember what the "Playoff Bowl"
was...  :-)

No, I don't remember that bowl, but I *probably* am old enough to.

So I'm watching the Superbowl.  Again, the Patriots defense is doing better,
offensively, than the Patriots offense.  Still, as long as they keep it up,
I'll be happy. :)

Brady looked pretty good on the first few plays.

It turned out to be a really good game!  New England actually won on a 
last-second field goal.  The final score was 20-17.

        Hearing the end of the championship game, I thought the Patriots
where supposed to wipe the walls with the Rams.  Little I know.  I did
see the end of the Superbowl.  Hey, good to see that it did turn into
a match of the champions.
        It kinda negates my asking the question again about "Was there
a game that was more Super for the Patriots in the championship series?".
Can it be said that an earier game gave them a tougher opponent or
where we seen better play?

Time for U-M fans to be proud of their alums in the Super Bowl:  Brady on
offense, Ty Law on defense.  :-)

The "Playoff Bowl" was an old NFL thing where the losers for the conference
championships would play a "consolation game" prior to the Super Bowl.  It
was deservedly scrapped:  Who wants to lose *2* playoff games at the end of
the season?!
