Added references

I changed all the links throughout the article into proper references. If anyone thinks more references are needed or if some of the current references have dead links, please let me know. Thanks. Aplomado ^talk 01:46, 4 July 2006 (UTC)

Why would the statement "The Steelers became the first AFC club to don their white jerseys as "home" team" in the trivia section need a citation? The author probably took the time necessary to look up the AFC representative in their "home" games, which happen to be the games with even numbers. A quick look of the participants and either 1) personal viewing and recollection of the game, or 2) highlight photos proves his point to be correct. — Preceding unsigned comment added by MSchell (talk • contribs) 19:40, 25 July 2007 (UTC)

Hasselbeck Penalty

The following is currently in the article: "Finally, a low block call on Seahawks quarterback Matt Hasselbeck cost the Seahawks fifteen yards on a drive that eventually ended up with an interception by Steelers cornerback Ike Taylor." If I remember correctly, this was the same drive that had the holding penalty called that was referenced in the preceeding sentence. A couple plays after the hold, Hasselbeck throws the interception. It is on the interception return that Hasselbeck is called for the questionable chop block (as it wasn't a block, but a tackle). The 15 yards set Pittsburgh in the firle position to set up the trick Randel El to Ward play. The sentence in the article makes it sound like Hasselbeck was called for the penalty and the interception happened a few plays later. Failureofafriend (talk) 03:43, 11 April 2008 (UTC)
