When I think of the most surrealistic images from the NFL Championship games of this weekend, this one came to mind. Arizona Cardinals owner Bill Bidwell holding the NFC Championship trophy, it feel weird doesn't it. Most fans said that this notorious cheap-skate was going to run the franchise into the ground and move it to somewhere else. Now the Cardinals are NFC Champions.
You have to give them a ton of credit for blowing a 18 point lead in the second half only to come back and win it on a last second touchdown drive. Tim Hightower's second effort touchdown run will live in Cardinals lore forever. Now they are off to Tampa to play the Pittsburgh Steelers.
The Steelers who were dominate defensively when they intercepted wunderkind Joe Flacco three times which one of them was returned for a touchdown by Troy Palomalu. The Steelers offense was not spectular but they have the play-making potential from wide-receiver Santonio Holmes who hauled in sixty-five yard touchdown pass.
All in All, it was great weekend of football and now we have two weeks to banter and talk about Super Bowl XXLIII. (wait...that might be a negative.)
