Feb 7th, 2006 Seattle Being Bitter and Bias?
In addition to the ESPN SportCenter guys unanimously saying the officiating determined the outcome of the Super Bowl, several other sport columnists feel the same:
- Seahawks won everything but the game - FoxSports.com
- Steeling one: Hawks get robbed - Skip Bayless (Seahawk hater, blabbermouth), ESPN.com
- Throw a flag on these Super Bowl referees - MiamaHerald.com’s Jason Whitlock
- TV unveils zebras at their worst - The[Toronto]Star.com
- Give The Super Bowl MVP To The Officials - says PatsFans.com
- Iffy officiating - Suntimes.com
- Game’s third team upstaged Steelers, Hawks - more from ESPN.com
- How the referees handed Pittsburgh the Super Bowl - Slate.com
There’s also emails circulating with (digitally manipulated) photos of Steelers Coach Bill Cowher handing head referee Bill Leavy money during the pregame warmups, as well as one with Leavy and caption “Steelers’ 12th man”.
Still think Seattle’s just bitter and bias?

Awesome! I’m sending these links to all those who said the Steelers won fair and square.
Also do you have any of the “digitally manipulated” photos? If so, could you email them to me?

P.S.
I love how simple this site it. Keep up the good work!

I totally agree with all of them. The Seahawks were robbed it was sad really. They still played a good game.
