Woooo Hooooo! I do not have a voice. That was the best game of football I've ever seen. There were about 30 seconds where I thought, "How am I going to face everybody on the Puritan Board?" That thought was immediately followed by depression that my biggest worry is what my internet friends will say. Uh Oh. I think I'm in a bad place

You mean you don't have a church full of rabid Eagle's fans ready to tear you apart when the Steelers are defeated(I know that doesn't make any sense right now, but live in the suburbs of Philly for half a week, and you will see strange things...)??

Best game I've seen except for the Giants-Patriots Super Bowl.

"Be still, my soul: when dearest friends depart, And all is darkened in the vale of tears, Then shalt thou better know His love, His heart, Who comes to soothe thy sorrow and thy fears. Be still, my soul: thy Jesus can repay From His own fullness all He takes away."

"Long my imprisoned spirit lay,
Fast bound in sin and nature’s night;
Thine eye diffused a quickening ray—
I woke, the dungeon flamed with light;
My chains fell off, my heart was free,
I rose, went forth, and followed Thee."

Since VA doesn't have a team, the few in the area who watch NFL are themselves imports to Richmond, so there's no mob mentality here! Thankfully we have other Steeler fans exiled to VA, so we still found Steeler Country!

IT WAS AWESOME!!!!!!! my voice is hoarse too... GREAT TIME!!!!!

I've never screamed so much in my life! Somehow our children managed to sleep through the noise! The game three years ago was nowhere near as good, although we still lived in Pittsburgh, so the response was so great! I was teaching, but I already planned a personal day, but the schools did have a two hour delay, like today in Pittsburgh! The Steelers make me homesick

At first I thought you meant one and a half people got inebriated! I was like, "uh oh..."

They had Iron City at the party, which is Pittsburgh's REAL beer (but not real tasty).
I doubt much of the beer we brought got drank either.

-----Added 2/2/2009 at 08:48:37 EST-----

I just noticed: Three CASES??? Yeah, you've got a lot of beer.

I was tring to figure out the proper usage... wether it would be 1 1/2 got drank??? or 1 1/2 got drunk???
No one got drunk... my hubby did have a huge goofy grin on his fase and a headache this morning... but we had a great time... His mom came and get the boys so we had a fun relaxing time.. it was the first night, since my uncle's death I wasn't sad!!!!!!

oh and BTW I don't drink beer...I was strickly taking shots.... and drinking dew... Bobby on the other hand was drinking beer and only took one shot... so he's got a ton of beer to last him a WHILE... BTW does beer go bad?

Beer doesn't go bad quickly. It used to be a means to preserve something to drink because water supplies were so poor. Shelf life = a long time.

Congratulations Steelers' fans. It was a great game. One play made it/broke it, depending upon who you're rooting for. But I was very pleased with my home team's play last night. They have no reason to hang their heads after a game like that.

By the way, even though the Steelers are the champions, I still won a wager. There are two young ladies here who need to pay up.

I do not know, and I do not say, that a person cannot believe in Revelation and in evolution, too, for a man may believe that which is infinitely wise and also that which is only asinine. ~ CHS

Beer can go bad (get skunky) if you chill it, then set it out, then chill it again, then set it out, etc. You know what I mean? If you already have it all in the fridge, then I think you kinda gotta leave it there (or put it out in the cold), but if it's just sitting, I think it has a good shelf life.

I had one bud light lime and one glass of wine over a loooooooooong stretch of time, so I didn't get anything but sleepy, twice. Once after the beer, and then again after the wine like three hours later.

yep yep... I'll pay up on that... here's 6 atta boys...
(but we still won!!!!!!)

-----Added 2/2/2009 at 09:02:05 EST-----

yep it's all in the fridge

NONONONONONONONONONONONO!!!
OK, so if we live by the LAW, you'll get the atta boys...but you know that in the SPIRIT OF THE LAW, you owe us!
Plus, the sports thread is still closed for sabbath??

Congrats to Steelers fans - I was pulling for them and am glad they won! That is a classy organization and it's nice to see good guys win. Not that the Cardinals aren't classy as well, especially Kurt Warner, but Mike Tomlin seems like a great guy and is a professing Christian.

What a great game that was! I didn't think anything could top the Giants-Pats game last year, but wow, that was a thriller. If you're going to win a Super Bowl, that's the way to do it. That INT return was one of the most amazing plays I've ever seen. Great game!

But from what I understand Mike Tomlin goes to the local "Big Box" African-American Baptist Church, Mt. Ararat Baptist Church, which is near where he lives. (By the way he lives 6 blocks from me...)

According to this article he goes to Allegheny Center Alliance Church. Regardless, he seems to have a credible profession of faith. And his mentor is Tony Dungy, who is also a Christian.

Opposing Views: NEWS: Steeler's Coach Mike Tomlin on Faith and Football

I am glad that you appreciate us that much

Whoops!!!!

That is what I meant... I always get those two churches confused...

I will pray in earnest for all of you, sanctification is a lifelong process and Lord willing you will one day see the folly of rooting for pittsburgh.

"When it comes to trustworthy theologians one can usually honor the rule of thumb that the deader the better."-Dr. John Hannah, DTS (of all places)

ACAC is actually kind of legit, as far as I can tell. I've only been once, but the sermon was actually centered on using the WCF to teach Scripture! (Maybe a fluke, I don't know.) It has the band and such that I don't prefer, but they may be a true church. And the church shows lots and lots of love to the city and especially the children. I don't know what their theology is, as I don't know much about CMA. I doubt they are Reformed, just from reading a little on the website. But I know some of the elect are members there.

Oh no you don't! That's SIX "ATTA BOY." Not a "six atta boy statement." See example in our "betting" thread. Sjonee received one "Atta girl." I gotta a whole much of those coming, gender corrected of course.



Absolutely, Jessi. The Steelers are the champions. My congratulations are sincere.

But I still won the bet. The wonders of the spread....

Thanks for that article! I had no idea that Tomlin professed to be a Christian or some of the other coaches. I like this quote:

Congrats to the Steelers fans. It was a great game, which hasn't that often in the history of the Super Bowl.

I'm not hoarse and I'll tell you why...I'm a baseball fan.

Now the World Series between Milwaukee and St. Louis in '82 (when I had no inkling that I'd ever live in WI) is a different story. That was seven games and it almost killed me.

I saw like 5 commercials... almost all had cute animals in it
and one was a spin off on MacGyver.... that one was LAME!!!!! and of course the transformer preview

The McGuyver one probably only made sense to people who watch SNL, b/c that's a skit on the show!

Right now I'm watching the Steeler victory parade live. I'm lame. It's awesome.

oh..ok...
