Crazy Packers Fan
Cheesehead
Over and over again over the week after the Super Bowl, I heard nearly every Pittsburgh media member claim that the Packers didn't really win the Super Bowl, but that the Steelers gave it to them. Granted, in Pittsburgh even the most diehard Steelers fans hate the media, but I kept on hearing this over and over again.
Their idea is basically that turnovers are "luck" or that the Steelers just decided to give the ball to the Packers. Really, there's no logical explanation for their reasoning. Did the Steelers QB purposely throw the ball to Nick Collins and Jarrett Bush? Did Mendenhall purposely drop the ball on the ground? The answer of course is no, but these hosts make it out that the Steelers just gave it away on purpose.
Their argument basically boils down to the old "we would have won if we would have scored more points than the other team" because it's that stupid. Yet they keep on saying it over and over again. I think most Steelers fans aren't that dumb and believe that the better team won and that they just came up short, but unfortunately the prevailing notion in the Pittsburgh media is that Rodgers, Jennings, etc. aren't really that great and that the Packers pretty much just got lucky.
