The number one reason why the NBA playoffs are better than the NBA playoffs is that the NBA has best of seven series while the NFL has single game series. In the NFL, every play in every playoff game is far more important than individual plays in basketball playoffs. This makes NFL playoffs more exciting to watch and, sure enough, the NFL gets more viewers than the NBA, but it also means that if an NFL team has the misfortune of a really, really bad play, it can cost them the playoff game even if overall they were the better team. But in the ... Read Full Story

January 30, 2009 Raymond Stadium Sign “Of course Pittsburg is going to win.” says my day job boss, “It’s just a matter of by how much. If they don’t make the point spread, a lot of people are going to lose.” He was, of course, referring to the bets bookies around the world are taking. The Steelers are odds on favorite for this Sunday’s gridiron match-up and with good reason. The team . . is one of three teams to have won the Super Bowl five times. No team has played more conference championship games and Pittsburgh has hosted more conference championship games than ... Read Full Story

Sunday, February 1, was a beautiful day – bright and cool. We got up early, bade farewell to my brother’s friend, Barb, and set out on our first quest – to find a car wash. We couldn’t show up to the Super Bowl in a dirty Mustang. Once that was accomplished, we set off for Tampa. Around Orlando, we stopped and got some breakfast. Seeing us in our Steelers’ finery, a young man in his Sunday best had to tell us that he was pulling for the Cardinals. This has become a recurring story since I’ve got back to Alabama. I’m wearing my newly ... Read Full Story

I wanted two things on Super Bowl Sunday, a victory for the Pittsburgh Steelers and a Chocolate Pistachio Bunt Cake. As it turned out, I got both. This is how you make the Chocolate Pistachio Bundt Cake.... Combine 1 box yellow cake mix, 1/2 cup water, 4 eggs and 1 1/2 tablespoon oil in a large bowl. Mix in 1 1/2 box pistachio pudding mix. Add 1/2 pint sour cream and blend to moisten. Beat 2 minutes at medium speed. Pour about 3/4 of the batter into a well greased bundt cake pan. If you're so inclined, as I was, this is the point ...

Super Bowl XLIII will be the 43rd annual edition of the Super Bowl in American football, and the 39th annual championship game of the modern-era National Football League (NFL).

The game will be a matchup between the AFC Champions (either the Baltimore Ravens or the Pittsburgh Steelers) and the NFC Champions (either the Philadelphia Eagles or the Arizona Cardinals). The game is scheduled to be played on February 1, 2009,[1] with kickoff at 6:20 PM Eastern Time, at Raymond James Stadium in Tampa, Florida. Super Bowl XLIII will be the second Super Bowl at this venue and the fourth overall in that city. Tampa was selected for the game site on May 25, 2005, beating out three other finalists: Atlanta, Houston, and Miami.

The Super Bowl XLIII logo features an abstract representation of a football stadium, with blue and green colors representing the regional waterways and landscapes of Tampa Bay. Eight yards of playing field are shown, alluding to the game's status as the championship of the 2008 NFL season. In a tradition starting with the Super Bowl XL logo, two stars — one red, representing the AFC, and one blue, representing the NFC — are flanked on either side of the Super Bowl XLIII logo.[2] The tagline for Super Bowl XLIII as well as the 2008 NFL season is "Believe In Now".[3]

The NFL will salute four decades of champions during the coin toss ceremony and the Vince Lombardi Trophy presentation. The coin toss will feature Roger Craig (Super Bowl XXIII, 1989), John Elway (Super Bowl XXXIII, 1999) and Lynn Swann (Super Bowl XIII, 1979). Roger Craig follows last year's participants and fellow 49ers Craig Walsh (son of Bill Walsh), Ronnie Lott, Jerry Rice and Steve Young. Joe Namath (Super Bowl III, 1969) will participate in the Vince Lombardi Trophy presentation and he previously participated in the coin toss in Super Bowl XXVIII.
