Come Back to Dallas/Fort Worth in 2016
Posted on 7 Feb 2011 by Scott Farrell.
It's no secret that Dallas-Fort Worth wants the Super Bowl back in town as soon as possible. Texans always want to do things the grandest way possible. So the local officials who brought Super Bowl XLV to the area used the experience as a primer for grander things to come. The North Texas Super Bowl Host Committee (can we use NTSBHC for short?) has already notified the NFL that it will submit a...

One man’s opinion on why Steelers win
Posted on 6 Feb 2011 by Scott Farrell.
Sorry for the cliche, but defense wins championships. What's most intriguing about this Super Bowl is that that sentence alone doesn't reveal which team I'm picking to win Lombardi's latest hardware. This is only the third time in Super Bowl history that the top-ranked scoring defense (Pittsburgh, 232 points) has faced the second-ranked scoring defense (Green Bay, 240 points). Only a touchdown ...

Pittsburgh defense has shown amazing continuity
Posted on 5 Feb 2011 by Scott Farrell.
Pittsburgh's defense has received plenty of praise this year, and rightly so. The latest version of the Steel Curtain closed the scoring curtain on opposing offenses all season, allowing the fewest points in the NFL during the regular season at 232. The Steelers' defensive coordinator, Dick LeBeau, has been hailed as a mastermind for assembling all the parts together in creating a defense that'...

Catching up with the Dallas-Super Bowl social scene
Posted on 4 Feb 2011 by Scott Farrell.
Hello again from Dallas, where the sun actually peeked through some clouds today to tease football fans everywhere with decent weather. It's good to be the Black Eyed Peas. Turns out after coming in on a chartered Lear jet, they went through a runthrough rehearsal at Cowboys Stadium on Wednesday. Then it was off to the posh restaurant Kenichi in Dallas' Uptown district. The restaurant, alerted ...

Steelers’ Key to the Game
Posted on 4 Feb 2011 by Scott Farrell.
One of the great things about the Pittsburgh Steelers is they expect to play in the Super Bowl every season. It's a hallmark to their organization and is exemplified in everything they do from the draft to marketing to personnel decisions to game-day execution. There's only a handful of franchises that can carry the same expectations year-to-year with some amount of validity. Prior to training ...

Steelers have had fortune in Super Bowl matchups
Posted on 3 Feb 2011 by Scott Farrell.
Much has been written on this site and others about Pittsburgh's championship legacy. True enough, the Steelers' six Lombardi trophies are to be respected and admired. No other franchise has more championship hardware than the Steelers, and only Dallas has appeared in as many Super Bowls as Pittsburgh. The Steelers' two Super Bowl wins over Dallas are what has vaulted Pittsburgh to the all-...

What they’re not saying about the Packers’ practice palace
Posted on 2 Feb 2011 by Scott Farrell.
So much has been made of the Packers' practice location this week. The media's acting as if Green Bay has never practiced in an indoor facility before the way they're talking about the digs at Highland Park High School. The high school's indoor all-sports facility, home to the Packers' practices this week after the Dallas weather turned into Green Bay's, is quite nice, sure enough. You've seen ...

Steelers are loyal despite Sepulveda’s bad luck
Posted on 1 Feb 2011 by Scott Farrell.
You have to feel for Daniel Sepulveda, the Pittsburgh punter who will miss playing in the Super Bowl for a second time while on injured reserve. The fourth-year punter for the Steelers tore the anterior cruciate ligament in his right knee against Baltimore on Dec. 5. Surgery to repair the knee five days later cost him the remainder of the season. It's the same ligament and the same injury he...

The teams are here, so enough about Dallas already
Posted on 31 Jan 2011 by Scott Farrell.
Hines Ward will have a few hours of down time this week to work on that 'cowboy' fashion he was sporting on the Steelers' charter flight today. The veteran receiver and Pittsburgh's all-time leading receiver came to town Monday wearing a black cowboy hat, a Western-style black shirt, black cowboy boots and a polished silver belt buckle big enough to pick up FM signals. Welcome to town, hoss...
