    I was born and raised in Memphis, but I’ve always been a Steeler Girl! We on our way to ring number 6, baby!

    Sorry, but I’m gonna have to go with the Ravens. I’ve never liked the Steelers, and I think that the best thing about that team is Mr. Troy Palomalu (if I spelled that right! lol) with his sexy ass…other than that, the Steelers can bite the bottom side of my behind…LMAO

    I was born and raisedin NC and I been a Steelers fan since I was a kid. There is not doubt we going to win. My friend called me up to say if we win that we still suck..now picture that.

    I told people we were going to the Superbowl…people still did not believe me…and I am telling all those who hate on us that we are going to win the Superbowl!!

    President Obama nows what time it is…..its STEELER time!

    Ravens fan here…Pittsburg SUCKS…the best thing about the team is the coach…can’t see myself rooting for them but it would be nice to see the coach be successful…don’t know much about AZ so I’ll be sitting this on out

    I campaigned for U. I went door to door for U, I stood in a line for a couple hours to see U, even created and wrote short animated scripts of your steps to the white house, but I have to go with the Cards President Obama. They came from St. Louis and we still support them. The Rams couldnt do it with out Warner.

    Any ways, I hope U enjoy the game Mr. President! I hope this doesn’t mean we won’t be friend if the steelers don’t win.

    Go Steelers!
    I heard McCain and some other republican rejected President Obama’s invitation to the white house for a Superbowl party.

    Honestly, you don’t need their invite. He really should have just had a private family super bowl party. Inviting people who really don’t want to come was a waste of time.

    Arizona has no shot against the new version of the Steel Curtain….Go Steelers!!!

  • 1-31-2009 2:19 am
