What do you mean you people...? What do yooouuu mean, you people?

Wondering what the deal is with the Uber Bowl tonight?
Heres a top 10 list of things you need to know about the big game:

10: The Pittsburgh Steelers are playing the Arizona Cardinals...I figure we should start with the basics.

9: The Steelers have won 5 Super Bowls, their sixth would be more than any other team in history. The Cardinals have never won a super bowl and last won a football championship in 1947 when the team was the Chicago Cardinals.

8: That is the second longest championship drought in the history of sports, only behind the 100+ year wait of the Chicago Cubs.

7: The Steelers are favoured to win by 7 points....Alex Ovechkin is -210 to collect more points in his game today than The Steelers Willie Parker will have receptions in the super bowl...you can't make this shit up.

6: The Steelers have the number 1 ranked defense in the league, maybe the best defense ever, the NFL's defensive MVP (James Harrison) and probably the best defensive hair (Troy Polamaulu).

5: The Cardinals Larry Fitzgerald already has more receiving yards (419) in his three playoff games this year than any single player has had in any playoff year in the history of the NFL. He caught 3 touchdown passes against Philadelphia in the NFC Championship game...in the first half.

4: Bruce Springsteen is playing halftime. Odds are even that he'll play Born in the USA, but only 18-1 hell play Badlands, which is too bad cause I like Badlands.

3: Cards backup QB Matt Leinart is just as likely to throw a pass in this game as he is to throw back a beer bong in the hot tub.

2: Commercials will cost 3 million dollars per 30-second spot. Breaking news...while they can be a little funny, nobody really cares.

and the number one thing to know about tonight's Super Bowl

1: If you aint having a party, you aint watching the Super Bowl the way it should be watched.

I got the Steelers...21-17...who ya got?
