Bill Leavy Finally Admits he Focked the Seahawks in SB XL

[Joey Gladstone 33]

I don't know a single Eagles fan who seriously thinks we would've won in '04 if it weren't for Spygate.

 

But you phags actually think the Suckbags deserved to win.

 

Who said we deserved to win?! I (and Im assuming all Hawks fans) are merely b!tching about the lack of a level playing field, in response to an actual referee from that game recently admitting it was poorly officiated. Reading comprehension little buddy.

 

Jesus, I had no idea Its Always Sunny in Philadelphia was so accurate.

The game is five years old - get over it and move on already. Would you feel better if the ref never admitted to make a bad call?

 

Sheesh.

[Joey Gladstone 33]

That's just sh!t talking. And Pats fans bring that on themselves because they're the absolute worst. I already hate redtodd for posting his annual diatribe about running up the score after San Diego throttles KC 49-3.

 

Or edjr's annual "Manning Choked".

 

Pats fans suck. But at least they're not crying about a game 5 years ago.

 

By the way, you absolutely nailed how Leavy is handling all this....which is poorly. He's trying to make peace with a bunch of latte sipping hippees. Friggin' pussy.

 

So when people whine and b!tch about the Pats it's "joking" and "sh!t talking"? Got it, sorry for the confusion guys!

 

Hawk fans aren't crying about a game 5 years ago, they are "joking" and "sh!t talking" about an admission made days ago. If Leavy keeps his mouth shut this thread doesn't exist and this board is as boring as it ever is in early August.

Actually, I do wish he had just kept his mouth shut.

 

I got over it and moved on years ago. While I know it wont change anything it's always fun to argue and scrap with the rest of you pole-smokers.

Joey, MDC has the logic of a rock. Don't waste your time. He obviously doesn't "get it"

[Franknbeans 46]

Hawk fans aren't crying about a game 5 years ago,

 

Seattle needed to play a perfect game to have a chance of overcoming those calls. Possible, but improbable. It was an ugly game in many respects.

 

It's not excuse making. He have a confession from Bill Leavy that he focked up, and he specifically mentioned calls that could only be interpreted as going against Seattle. The guy is losing sleep over it. It's like hearing a confession after the trial is over. Everybody knows what happened, but it's too late for justice to prevail. But that doesn't mean the family of the victim can't grieve some more over the travesty of the past and make some noise in the media so this sham never is allowed to happen again to some other unsuspecting fan base.

 

The D Jax penalty is a terrible call. If I'm not mistaken, the announcers said the same thing. In that game, at that stage, how do you call that? I'd have no problem throwing a personal foul flag on the defender for faking being pushed off, as there was no contact of any significance. That was a bush league call. There's more contact when you see a hotdog vendor passing a dog to a customer.

 

 

 

[FlaHawker 24]

This long after and Hawker is still focking crying about that game.

Talk about a post just dripping with irony

[FlaHawker 24]

LMAO - this is just sad

 

They reviewed the Big Ben TD, looks like the ball hit the goal line to me - they even reviewed it and you are still complaining! Ok take that away and you lost 17-10 instead.

 

The DJax call is a clear stiff arm to get separation RIGHT IN FRONT OF AN OFFICIAL IN THE ENDZONE. Will get called every time.

You know what is really sad? Your ignorant posts. Educate yourself before spouting off.

 

First, do you know why Leavy reviewed the play and didn't overturn the call? Let me educate you. If you don't believe what I am about to type feel free to check it out with the NFL Network because Rich Eisen asked Mike Baghdad Periera the same question I had while watching the game. Of course you missed this during the game, no doubt. But here goes.

 

When Ben was stopped at the goaline, and he was stopped (otherwise why would he have told Cowher he didn't think he got in and then also repeated the claim on Letteman a night or two later), the linesman immediately signaled 4th down. As he ran in to where Rothlisberger was lying on the field, he then miraculously changes his call to TD. Why? The original call was 4th down. When Rich Eisen brought this up to Baghdad Periera he response was that the lines man got confused. He mistakenly signaled 4th down when he meant to signal TD. Umm yea ok. Now here's the rub. Had the original call stood (4th down) the Steelers would have had to challenge the call. Obviously, if you can believe Leavy, and you do, the play was inconclusive and 4th down would have stood forcing Cowher to either go for it or kick a FG. Thus, poor officiating totally impacted that series of events.

 

Second, as for your DJax comment. Ok sure, this is football and now a patty cake call in the endzone is ok and if that little patty cake call is, as you say, gonna be called everytime, then why no call against Ward who pushed off 10 times harder than Jackson did. I have never really bitched about this call because the Hawks did scored a FG on that drive but again, the noncall on Ward clearly shows that something elese was happening that day. You can either admit it, like Leavy has done, or continue to stick your head in the sand. I think I know what you will do

Fantasy Queen is the most irrelevant fan of any team on this board. Before 2005, I'm sure he was a Pats fan. He's the type of doosh that makes even Sweetness

[FlaHawker 24]

There are bad calls every week and in every game. If the refs didn't job the Seahawks on the plays in question, who's to say the Steelers wouldn't have just found another way to win?

Don't you get tired of being wrong all the time?

 

[FlaHawker 24]

 

 

The fact is, if Seattle was a better team, they would have won.

Yes because the better team always wins in every sport

[FlaHawker 24]

Then in 2006 the Vikes signed Steve Hutchinson....and guess who cried.

And what have you won with that guard? Karma's a ######

[FlaHawker 24]

 

 

Most Suckbag fans don't even live near Seattle, they just liked the frigging uniforms when they were 10 years old and never grew up.

Yes and Steeler fans all live in Pittsburgh

No irony...just the fact that 5 years later you are still a whining crying little focking girl.

losing a Super Bowl you had no business in participating in back in 2005.

 

You're a funy guy and quite the antagonist...Can you back this statement up with some substance?

24 posts out of just over 90...something you have been biotching about for 5 years.

Time to nut up and be a big boy and just admit your boys got beat.

[FeelingMN 273]

You just have to be the better team......that day.

 

Pittsburgh had the better team that year, and in SB XL. Hell, Seattle played the 5 and 6 seeds in the playoffs while Pitt played 1,2,3....on the road. At this point, I think you should feel fortunate to have just reached the SB.

 

Maybe next time Seattle will make more plays and they'll win.

holding, 10 yard penalty

[FlaHawker 24]

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lcTm9PPdT3I&feature=related

 

 

holding, 10 yard penalty

So easily refuted:

 

1- Haggans was actually offsides

 

2- While looking at the replay, John Madden commented, "That doesn't look like holding."

 

3- The NFL changed how holding was called after the Super Bowl because of this play

 

4- Bill Leavy just admitted he focked that call up.

 

 

But thanks for playing

Sorry sport, 21-10 is the only stat that matters.

 

And from your link: Put simply, the Seahawks didn't play well enough to win Super Bowl XL.

 

 

So I'm not sure why you think Seattle made the plays....they didn't.

 

And Leavy admitted to blowing two calls.....two. If two calls are enough to sink your championship hopes, you're not a championship team.

Link 2 where Leavy talks about specific plays? Every link is speculation of plays.

He was clearly talking about jobbing the Steelers of many plays including the stripping of the ball that would have been returned for a td.

Thank you Bill 4 finally admitting the truth!

Completely irrelevant to what occurred during SB XL. If Pittsburgh had played better during the regular season, they could have played lower seeded teams in the playoffs. Hell, if it wasnt' for a cheap hit on Carson Palmer's leg, the Steelers wouldnt have won a playoff game.

Your team still lost.

He did not admit just what you have been saying, but you can keep thinking that.

Too bad when anyone looks in the record book it will still show the Steelers as champs (because you have no idea if any blown calls really cost them the game or if the outcome would have been the same anyway) and despite your attempts, no asterisk. Just another ring for PItt.

Living in ignorance and foolishness I guess would make it sweet for you.

WHen are they hanging up the Super Bowl Champs banner?

Or when will they display the Lombardi?

 

Oh wait, they still didn't win it...and even with those calls they may not have.

oh well.

The NFL will never recount the game with any honor or glory. As much as Steeler fans pretend to be proud of their victory and trophy, there will forever be a dark cloud over the game. The NFL will be more than happy if this game is just forgotten.
