4. Steelers, of course
Being a Broncos fan living in Butler, PA
I skinned my knee jumping on the Steelers
bandwagon.

Having said that, I have a soft place in my
heart for the Packers.

5. This question is just like the question...
"Who do you prefer, Michele Bachmann or Michelle Malkin?"

I can't stand either team. For the first time in years, I won't be watching the Super Bowl.

8. I was making a point.
I can't stand either team. It has nothing to do with politics, btw. It has everything to do with a team supporting an alleged rapist.

24. You said "I can't stand either team" and then described why you hate the Steelers
The other poster was asking why you hate Green Bay. I'd say his reading comprehension skills are just fine...

23. yeah, it does go to show that money/winning talks
I think if anyone else on the team had been similarly accused or convicted, they would have been traded, pronto. Many of the fans were very,very angry and some still are. He has no respect for women, had a very predatory approach and needed a huge wake up call. I feel terrible for the young woman. But to be fair, he was not convicted of anything.

OTOH, the Steelers have a long history of being a small market and pretty family-friendly team.

19. My sentiments exactly.
I do think those are the two best teams, though.

I was just hoping there would be someone I could root for.

Looks like I'll be going to the movies that day...lol.

9. I have an emotional vote
I really like both teams, although my heart is with the Saints. I was for the Steelers before, and I'll be for them this year. My favorite aunt (the sanity to my mom's insanity) lives outside of Pittsburgh, she's a huge Steelers' fan. Because of cancer, chances are this is her last football season, so I'm going with the Steelers. Last year she broke away from supporting the AFC team, to cheer for the Saints for me...

Sounds like a great lady. I'm going to say a prayer for her.

17. Yep, about it.
Didn't see an answer for "Who cares". Should be an interesting week in the Metroplex, though.

I have to go with the Packers here. At least Rodgers isn't an asshole thug.

21. Steelers to win out.-- they paid more for the officials.

The Seahawks got robbed, no two ways about it.

Let the Steelers steal another one.

22. The Pack will be back! When I watched them dismantle my eagles in the season's first game,
I thought that the Packers could make it to the SB if they kept playing with such intensity. They deserve to be where they are, and I wish them the best in the big one.
The Steelers have been great all year, too, but I think GB will win...should be a really good game.

25. No "who gives a sh*t" option?
If I have to choose, I guess the Packers. But I really couldn't care less. Really.
