Posted this over on Facebook, but it's much more suited to my LJ.
1. I have been saying since training camp that
Mike Wallace's pseudo-mohawk would make a big play, but then when he took off his helmet, he had one of those hood things on! Any Pittsburghers have local Wallace's-hair coverage? Does it still exist?
2. I suspended my affection for Aaron Rodgers for this game, and it would have been an indefinite suspension if he'd beaten us. I'm sure that's a silver lining for him in this loss. Right, Aaron?
3.Thank god Ben's career-high/team-record 503 yards didn't go to waste in yet another ugly loss.
4. Woooooooooooooooo!
Edit for #5 from post-game quotes. I thought that Wallace catch looked like Santonio's from the Super Bowl. Then I saw this:
Q: Did that play remind you of Santonio Holmes’ catch in Super Bowl 43?
Mike Tomlin: Oh my gosh, that’s so far in our rear view, we’re just trying to stay alive.There are about four things in that one sentence that I love. Tomlin is the best. And Mohawk Wallace cracks me up too:
Q: Why do you think [Ben] said he’d come to you?
Mike Wallace: Because I’m the least one that everybody is worried about out there. We have great guys. We have a Hall of Famer, Hines Ward. We have Santonio [Holmes], a potential Pro Bowler. We have Heath [Miller], another potential Pro Bowler. So it’s just little old me, out there by myself on an island.
