Yeah, yeah, I know - I said Steelers by five, not four. Close enough.

Some other points:

1) Larry Fitzgerald is one hell of a receiver;

2) So is Santonio Holmes.

3) The refereeing was, to say the least, unsuitably iffy, and not just for the fact that James Harrison didn't get ejected for his schoolyard boxing match.

4) Dick LeBeau did not screw the pooch, really; the Cardinals are just a better offensive team than most peeps get them credit for despite their lack of a running attack. Translation: Kurt Warner is a quarterback who can survive in an offense that can't run the ball, which is something only John Elway could pull off in his early years with the Broncos. Not that either of them won a Lombardi trophy doing that, of course.

5) So Faith Hill and Jennifer Hudson lip-synched. Who cares? 

6) Some of the ads were funny. They still didn't make me want to buy most of that crap.

7) I'm getting the uncomfortable feeling that halftime shows are coming perilously close to a 15-minute live commercial for Freedom Rock. You'll know that Metallica are dead when they play a Super Bowl.

8) I nearly spelled that  as "Super BowEl" in the last sentence. After 8-plus hours of ridiculous hoopla passing for dramatic buildup, maybe that's the point.
