PITTSBURGH — Football people have mostly defended the ridiculous holding call that ruined the Super Bowl. So thank goodness for Ben Roethlisberger, who spoke for millions with his take on the play.
“I hate that that great game ended that way,” Roethlisberger said on his “Footbahlin” podcast. “I hate that.”
I can’t tell you how many people — most of them casual football fans — have told me over the past few days how the puny little B.S. call on Philadelphia Eagles cornerback James Bradberry literally ruined the game for them. One compared it to a riveting movie wrecked by a stupid, anticlimactic ending.
