Here we go Steelers, here we go!
On another note, I don't think it'd be much of an "in your face" to Ford. Arizona's going to be a flash in the pan, one year wonder just like almost every other NFC that's been in the Super Bowl in the last decade or so (Carolina, Seattle, Chicago, Tampa Bay to name a few). They won NINE games this year in the regular season, just two more than the Lions did last season. Arizona's front office is awful.. They're almost definitely going to lose either Warner or Dansby (both contracts are up and they can only franchise one), Boldin wants out because they won't renegotiate (which I can understand.. but the guy would be a #1 on a lot of other teams), their Pro Bowl SS wants a new deal (good luck, see Boldin), and it took them so long to come to a deal with Fiztgerald last year they lost out on all the free agents available. They just got lucky that all the stars happened to align for one year.. but I guess that's something that doesn't seem like it'll ever happen for the Lions.
EDIT: I can't believe I'm the only voter for Pittsburgh so far! And sorry for the rant.. I'm just in "destroy Arizona" mode.

Where would we be without the agitators of the world attaching the electrodes of knowledge to the nipples of ignorance?
