As we all know, the Steelers lost Super Bowl XLV, largely because they self-destructed through 3 turnovers and pointless penalties.

Unfortuantely, I did not see the game, as it was not being shown in the part of Brazil that I was vacationing in.

Beyond that, a family medical emergency reared its ugly head during the game itself.

As disappointed as I was at the outcome, the medical issues helped me keep things in perspective.

Thanks to everyone who has commented — I will get the corrections up on the Steelers-Packers history page, and I will attempt to get more into the swing of things with what is going on with the Steelers in the off season.
