The Gun Of Bavaria Posted January 30, 2009 Share Posted January 30, 2009 So this morning, I'm listening the local sports radio idiots on WJR 760 AM in Detroit, and they're interviewing Detroit Free Press Sportswriter Mike O'Hara via telephone from Tampa. He is a card carrying member of the Steelers bandwagon and hey, good for him. However, he then makes the statement that the Cardinals "Aren't Qualified" to be in the Super Bowl. Seriously? Since when is a team that fights its way from being the armpit of the league, wins 3 playoff games, including a dismantling of the one team who sportswriters thought "were qualified" (Carolina), and makes the Super Bowl "Not qualified"? Boo Freaking Hoo. It's not the Giants, Cowboys or the sports writing orgasm inducing McNabb led Eagles. How you honestly say, with a straight face, that a team that fights its way to the Super Bowl, through regular season and 3 rounds of playoff games, completely uncharted territory for this franchise by the way, doesn't deserve to be there. It gets old hearing this crap day in and day out. There's a reason they play the game, just ask Chris Collinsworth and his lovely "The NY Jets are legitimate Super Bowl Contenders" quote. Congratulationsto the Cardinals for earning their way to the Super Bowl. They're more than qualified to be there and I hope that they break Roethisberger in half on the way to their first Super Bowl title. Also, I hope the players of the "qualified" teams are enjoying their latest round of golf. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

4HCrew Posted January 30, 2009 Share Posted January 30, 2009 At this point Jets fans should maybe focus on the phrase "make AFC championship game" the baby steps philosophy..then after a few years "win AFC championship game" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

indygirl4jets Posted January 30, 2009 Share Posted January 30, 2009 What a bunch of nonsense! They deserve to be there just as much as the steelers and I hope they beat the crap out of them too.

Green DNA Posted January 30, 2009 Share Posted January 30, 2009 If you win your playoff games, you are automatically qualified to be in the Super Bowl. Using that tool's logic (apparently regular season record), the Giants weren't qualified last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was pretty sure to 'qualify' for the Super Bowl, you had to: Make the Playoffs: Earn a Bye or Win the Wild Card Round: Win the Divisional Round: Win the Conference Championship: Did I miss anything? Was there a test or an exam? Or are they pretty well qualified to be there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Troll Posted January 30, 2009 Share Posted January 30, 2009 If you make it to the Super Bowl, you are qualified to be there, period.* *Unless you are the '01 Patriots and get there only because of videotapes and the referees making up new rules in the middle of playoff games.

124 Posted January 30, 2009 Share Posted January 30, 2009 If the Cardinals had played in a division that had a team that was .500 above maybe they would've played a little better over the final five games? Yes they are 9-7, so what? They are a good team that got lazy at the end of the season because their division was wrapped up and the majority of those players have never experienced something like that before. They are a very good team who just didnt play well on the East Coast, what a shocker. Hey, I think there is a team in NY who missed the postseason PARTLY because of their West Coast struggles.

Over here the last few weeks have just been full of all this "They shouldn't have been in the playoffs wah wah wah - it's not right the Patriots don't make it and the Cards do, and the NFL should change the whole sysytem" crap. Thankfully with them winning three playoff games, most of these whiners have had to shut their faces. Cards are in the Super Bowl on merit. They won their division, and they won three playoff games. They deserve to be in Tampa this week. End of story. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are a very good team who just didnt play well on the East Coast Yep. They also took care of business in the division by going 6-0. They beat the Dolphins by 21 points and the Bills by 24. Their win against the Cowboys was a great game to watch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They should. 80% of Steelers "fans" don't even live in Pittsburgh and most of them have never even been to Pennsylvania.
