I guess that means the Squealers will win tonight.

2. Don't forget the "excessive celebration" penalty in the first half against the peckers.
Yeap. Here we go again.

3. oh, c'mon. That penalty had little or no effect- they were

5. Precedent.
Officials handed the 2006 Super Bowl to the Squealers on a silver platter. All of the bad calls went the Squealers' way.

Maybe the officials let the Squeakers get so far behind so the fix wouldn't be so obvious.
