		<description>Jeff, That super bowl comes down to 2 things.
1. The Patriots defense LEGALLY covered the  Rams receivers and Ty Law certainly took it right up to what was a fair play.  What gets over looked though is the number of play finishing hits the Patriots defense delivered.  If a Ram receiver missed a pass he still got clocked, if the receiver caught the ball he was hit very hard.  I remember getting the impression the Rams receivers were afraid in the 2nd half of getting hit.  
1b.  Defense played a completely legal game.  Nothing stopped the Rams defense from doing the same thing.  Hell we had Antwain Smith in the backfield.  srsly.

2.  Mike Martz is a brutal head coach and cannot put his own ego aside to realize when change needs to be made.  

I think Rams fans are completely mis-guided to focus their energy on the Pats.  Every game has its share of holding and late hits.  The league actually hands out fines when they find instances of it - even if the ref doesnt call a penalty.  No Patriot player was fined after the game.  

Finally, Greatest show on earth was already taken by P.T Barnum in the 19th century.  That was why (to me) the turf part was funny.  Too bad it came to symbolize the one-dimensional aspect of their offense.

Tough game Sunday...Did you see what Kurt Warner did for the Cards? 35/49 for 381 and 2 touchdowns.  P.T Barnum is also credited with saying &quot;there is a sucker born every minute&quot;.  Perhaps the Rams fans were mislead when Warner was run out of town?</description>

		<description>Be a Christian and Pray For a Top Knotch  Good Polished Quarter Back (Tom Brady)  Who Has Taken Control Of Some Troubled Players  and turned them into Professional Pro FootBall Men  and turned a Full Team into Thee  Best NFL Professional Team I have ever seen in my 50 years of watching the Game. That Have learned how to play  as one unit one team together .
        You Never Hear Tom Brady Doing EgoManiac commercials Like Peyton Manning.Quote from Peyton Manning In his commercial &quot;If You want to be Kool  Like ME!!! ME ME ME Paint a Number 12 ON Your MiniVan and Some Flames And You&#039;ll  be  Kool
          I  remember  not  so  long  ago , Say  The  80&#039;s  when  the  New England Patriots stunk,  But  I  kept on being  a  Faithful Fan Living  Right Behind The Stadium, Even Had Box Tickets  During The Steve Grogan Era and Doug Flutie
     Here&#039;s  the  thing we all  love  our  teams .But Come on !! We The Fans Waited Decades And Decades For The Miricale To Happen. Mr Robert Kraft and Bill Bellichick   Has Took a not so great team and  Made being a NFL Football Fan Very Kool and very Professional.  Greg Ramsey</description>

		<description>Get over it. You could go through every single game and find uncalled penalties. Just look at last year&#039;s superbowl and what the Giants were doing to the patriots, especially the holding by the giant&#039;s offensive linemen. The fact is, the Rams lost. Plain and simple. Cry me a river, build a bridge and get over it.</description>
