Casey Hampton & Co. feels Pittsburgh was 'cheated' for team of the decade

[Joker]

I wonder who Favre was rooting for

that's easy...himself of course

This is a stupid argument. Now that the decade is finally over (2010 is the final year of the decade and yesterday's Super Bowl is still considered the 2010 season) I think the Steelers would have a reasonable complaint if they won yesterday. They would have tied the Patriots at 3-3 in Super Bowl Championships - and all I care about is championships so the Patriots get not bonus points for make a 4th Super Bowl and losing it.

IMHO, that would have given us a tie for team of the decade. But Pittsburgh lost. So the final score is:

NE - 3
Pitt - 2
Tampa, Indy, NYG, NO, GB - 1

Mr. Hampton, thy bitterness is to me as the sweetest wine

Any fan, player, writer or whomever that thinks the Patriots were the ONLY team taping and stealing signals to some degree is either naive or just plain stupid.

excellent quote, but is it wine or whine ?

He needs a diaper change and a fresh bottle.

I don't think Casey Hampton has been cheated out of anything, including any meals.

The fact the Packers won the superbowl in Favre's last season(?) will hurt his legacy even more. I wonder who Favre was rooting for

Considering he was rooting for the Bears to knock the Packers out of the playoffs earlier this season, I would say it's a given he was rooting for the Steelers. If nothing else he and Ben have some common interests.

Also, don't forget two years ago when he was giving Matt Millen advice on how the Lions might be able to beat Green Bay.

So I would agree with Joker that he was probably rooting for himself - and the way to accomplish that was to root against the Packers.

Any Steeler player who got a ring for the Super Bowl against the Seahawks should be legally, and permanently, barred from complaining about ever being "cheated" out of anything.

Yeah. Obviosuly not quite to that level but there were some extremely questionable calls vs AZ.

Green Bay cheated on Sunday by scoring too many points.

Steelers should have gotten #7 let's cry
