Steelers Defeat Cardinals in Super Bowl 43

This according to a Madden ’09 simulation.

UPDATE: And in the real game as well!

I, for one, hope the simulation is wrong. One of my best friends, who passed away 3 years ago, was one of the biggest Arizona Cardinals fans ever! He wasn’t embarrassed by the team. He always said “Someday…they’ll be Super Bowl Champions”.

Now, I know he’s looking down and rooting for them once again this Sunday as they try to make history. Woodman, I hope they do it!!! I’m gonna go out on a limb and make my prediction: Cardinals 27-24.

Go Cardinals!!!

From SportingNews.com:
