Wallace with a winning attitude

Who would have thought that Coach Tomlin’s decision for the on-side kick would have left JUST ENOUGH TIME on the clock for Big Ben and company to come back for the winning touchdown?  Me, that’s who!

Once in a very llllooooonnnnnnnnggggg while I get something right.  On this one,  I have two witnesses, Julie who was across the room from me and her Uncle John Koslosky who was on the phone with her during the final minutes of the game.

Yes, I too had doubts that the defense could hold Green Bay scoreless in the final 3:58.  And us with a lead that they could beat with a field goal?  I thought it needed to be a two-possession game… one for them and one for us.  Ben, thank you!  Wallace, you keep that game ball, you deserve it!  And Coach Tomlin, good call!  I never thought of the on-side kick until you called it.

(Next time, let’s just recover the ball on the onside kick and run the clock out, ok?)

Ring #7? Go Steelers!

How about those Steelers?  In SO many of the games during the season they had to invent a way to win… and then Super Bowl XLIII where the last-gasp TD from James Harrison in the first half and the nearly miraculous catch in the last seconds of the game by Santonio Holmes.  I might die from a heart attack if they keep winning games like that but, if I do, I’ll go out as a happy Steelers fan.

GO STILLERS!
