Super Dog Bowl

Football. Packers. Steelers. Road dog rabble rumble. Even The Dog got into this Stupor Bowl. The best team won. This game was like a dog fight that even Michael Vick couldn't handle. Some of the announcers called it a "blue collar bowl". Nope, sorry, this was a dog bowl from the get-go.
These dogs came back from everything nature and the God Dog could throw at them. Rodgers (note the "d-o-g" hidden in his name...) made Brett Favre a distant memory with just enough emotion to keep the pack moving forward and just enough cool to bring them back from the edge. McCarthy. Now that guy just looks like a dog lover and has just enough hidden bite to make the most rabid foe think twice.
Couple of Road Dog thoughts on the game and post-game babble. Why is everyone so quick to find something wrong? Start with the stupid stuff; like half time. The Black Eyed Peas got critiqued for a less-than-something show. Good Gawd people... these puppies gave their best shot to perform in a zero-acoustic location with 80 bazillion people watching them. As will-I-am (love that name) said, "if critics didn't criticize, they'd just be fans". Good one.
Then the game wrap ups. Can somebody put Ache-man on a shelf some place? Let "Bring me another brew Bradshaw" do the game. Now that guy is an old dog who still throws a good bite every now and then.
Of course, Steeler QB Rottweiler couldn't bring them back to win in the last 2 minutes. Hey guys, so what? He was out there trying, where were you? And, Troy Potowanami wasn't the MVP he was hyped to be. I don't know what game you were watching, but I saw that hair on almost every play.
All of them, on both sides, deserve an extra bowl after that one.
Anyway, enough babble - off for kibble.
