It seemed like the fix might be in when the stripes called a phantom face mask that set the Steelers up at mid-field on their first possession of the second half. The game was rather poorly officiated, no matter what side you were rooting for, but that call was the most blatant. Five plays later the NFL have another closely contested Super Bowl. Thankfully they let the better team win.
Good analogy from MCarthy, because that is what GB does better than probably anyone. Exploiting matchups favorable to them, and beat you silly with it. They ran that poor Steeler nickel back out of the stadium yesterday that was in charge of Jordy Nelson.
The QB Rogers replaced hasn't called him to offer congratulations. What was that guy's name? Anyway, Rogers says he does not expect to hear from what's his name.
And don't tell me he only did that with the Jets. He had to be doing it for a long time before that since it came so easy to him. It's just that I don't think they have cellphones in Wisconsin so he was using Poloroids or cave paintings or something. Just sayn'
Now, now Original Mike don't be a sore winner. You guys won. You should just laugh it all off and revel in your ownership of the Vince Lombardi Reststop Championship Trophy. You earned it.
I am confident that the Giants will be back in the hunt next year along with your Packers, Beth's Saints, AJ's Eagles and whoever roots for those loser teams in the West.
I'd like to thank the Giants for coming to Lambeau for that scrimmage in week 15. Not quite a real game simulation, but our 2nd and 3rd stringers got some quality work in that day against the Giant starters ;-)
Oh, I see now, reading through some of the comments above, that I'm not the only Althouse reader who has become aware, within, oh say, the last 24 hours, that the Green Bay Packers, quite recently, became The Super Bowl XLV Champions.
Speaking of the fix being in I thought those Green Bay ends dropping what? 3 passes thrown right at them might have been an attempt at a fix. We'll never know.
This doctor gave a patient a prescription for Cialis, but the pharmacist made a mistake and told the patient to take 20 pills a day instead of two.
A few months go by and the doctor realizes that the patient hasn't shown up for any follow-up appointments. As he happens to be driving near the patient's house, he decides to stop in and see if everything was okay.
The patient's teenage son answers the door, and in response to the doctor's inquiry says "Mom is in the hospital with a ruptured vagina, my younger sister is pregnant, my rectum hurts, and Dad's out in the back yard saying 'Here kitty kitty'."

The important question is 'was the daughter's situation "forcible"? If she was ok w/ it, well that's different, according to the House GOP.
One morning a couple were going at it hammer and thongs and the wife says: "Honey, this Viagra is so wonderful, let me fix us a nice full breakfast... eggs, bacon, toast..." The husband says: "No, I'm not hungry, the viagra takes away my appetite."
Later in the day, the wife says: "Lover, I want to do something for you, let me fix you a nice wholesome lunch, fresh salad with your favorite stuff, steamed veggies, and some grilled fish fillets..."
The husband again refuses, "I'm just not hungry after using that viagra."
Right about dinner time, the wife tries again, "Are you hungry yet?, I'll fix a steak and potatoes dinner with hot rolls."
The husband still refuses, "No, that Viagra just kills my appetite."
The wife goes "well I don't give a shit, I'm getting something to eat, so get THE FUCK OFF OF ME!"
"A few months go by and the doctor realizes that the patient hasn't shown up for any follow-up appointments. As he happens to be driving near the patient's house, he decides to stop in and see if everything was okay."
Was the tv on? Were they watching the Super Bowl? Super Bowl XLV? Do you know who won?
what ricpic said--I mean Rogers kept hitting the receivers in bad spots--their hands, their chests--I think had more to do with point spread than outcome (I kid)

Winners can cry. Losers? Suck it up.
BOO-rahh!!!
Anyone watch UFC on Saturday.
It turns out that good fighters can get it done w/ a quick kick to the head too.
But, this does make for an uninteresting fight when you're hanging w/ friends at a bar for the event.

I thought you were talking about hockey.
Yeah, that was a bad call.
The half-time show was like a heavyweight fight, too, with journeymen boxers slugging it out one more time.
Have I told you lately that the GREEN BAY PACKERS are the NFL Champions?
Thank God they won.
Now we won't need to see anything about Brett Farvrreerrrre for awhile.
World Champions, MM.
Anybody but the Squeeeelers! Happy for Packers fans.
They sure had that somethin', somethin' going on, didn't they?
Thanks, guys, for making this last Wisconsin January a whole lot of fun.

All this violent rhetoric is killing me.

I think warring language is allowed in football, just not politics, unless you're a liberal and therefore for the children.
I'm surprised at how many lefty friends and relatives I have who are over the top Packer fans.
Winning and losing is determined mostly by merit and a little by luck, and there are no government controlled egalitarian outcomes.
"The QB Rogers replaced hasn't called him to offer congratulations. What was that guy's name?"
Brent Favre
Isn't there an history trend that whenever the NFL team beats the AFC team in the Super Bowl the stock market goes up?
I don't know man. Brett seemed like the perfect Packer!
Oops, I meant the NFC team.
Does that refer to the Strahan sack, Trooper?
Or to something much more recent?
No it refers to his habit of photographing his nut sack to send via text to various sideline reporters.
'Cause you know, the only way the Giants can get ahead is through affirmative action.
Have I told you lately that the GREEN BAY PACKERS are the NFL Champions?
Where is Trooper?
And don't tell me he only did that with the Jets. He had to be doing it for a long time before that since it came so easy to him. It's just that I don't think they have cellphones in Wisconsin so he was using Poloroids or cave paintings or something. Just sayn'
oh there he is.
Does that refer to the Strahan sack, Trooper?
No quotes around "sack"?
Going to the Lambeau Field shindig, Trooper?
"No quotes around "sack"?"
Don't want to hurt Trooper's feelings.
Lem, did you mention that the Green Bay Packers are the Super Bowl champions?
Oh, I see you did.
Now, now Original Mike don't be a sore winner. You guys won. You should just laugh it all off and revel in your ownership of the Vince Lombardi Reststop Championship Trophy. You earned it.

Well, I haven't said it in a while..
The Green Bay Packers are the World Champions.
Just now getting back to this so maybe it was already commented on up thread... still, I think it might bear repeating:
The Green Bay Packers are The Super Bowl Champions.
Now, now, Meade. Don't be a sore winner.
BOO-rahh!!!
the Giants will be back in the hunt next year along with your Packers, Beth's Saints, AJ's Eagles and whoever roots for those loser teams in the West.
Well, if there is a season.
The Packers are the World Champions, baby!
Oh, I see now, reading through some of the comments above, that I'm not the only Althouse reader who has become aware, within, oh say, the last 24 hours, that the Green Bay Packers, quite recently, became
The Super Bowl XLV Champions.
Well you guys won that game fair and square. And you are the World Champions. So you should be proud of your team. And your fans!
Did I tell you lately that the Green Bay Packers are Super Bowl Champions?
Which means they have now won four Super Bowls while the New York Giants have won three.
"Well, if there is a season."
Could be the Packers will be World Champions for the rest of all time.
But who's counting?
Lem said...
Well, I haven't said it in a while..
The Green Bay Packers are the World Champions.
I totally agree.
Who could argue?

Very well put!
But who's counting?
If we are counting, and I admit that could be viewed as tacky, this makes 13 world championships. By far the most of any team.
That's ok Garage. Who would call Packer fan's tacky?
and there are no government controlled egalitarian outcomes
No, the NFL itself enforces it's redistribution. They, literally, spread the wealth. WWJtPD?
Bill Maher was sorta funny as he did what he does--i.e. make fun w/o rigorous accuracy.
You should carry those, Trooper.
"No, the NFL itself enforces it's redistribution. They, literally, spread the wealth. WWJtPD?"
Private companies are free to do what they want. The operative word being, free.
BTW, I found that site via the google. I dunno who/what they are.
I do carry bras in that size which looks like a 44H but not in the Green and Gold. Sorry.
"Private companies are free to do what they want. The operative word being, free."
Presumably our anti-turst laws would say otherwise.
Well, now that the Green Bay Packers are World Champions, women will be clamering for them.
Hey no doubt. Just tell them to wear the potato in the front.
We're going to get to do this until next Fall. What fun! Eh, Troop?
Nah Original Mike. We will have better things to talk about.
It seemed like the fix might be in...

Uh... aren't those Yankee baseball guys missing something, you know - potato-y - there, in front?
Just sayin'
Interesting statistic: there were more people in the stadium last night (about 103,000) than there are Green Bayers (about 101,000).
They are holding it in their hands dude. They are detachable.
I can't wait till we get to spank the Phillies in the Series again!

Just cant help it can you? I'm sure this relates in some way to the topic?
Even so, could you be remotely honest when you thread jack? No?

Of course if the husband was the Steelers quarterback then this would be a rape joke and politically incorrect. Just sayn'
Just gotta say it: GO PACK GO!!! WHAT A YEAR!!!
