ASSOCIATED PRESS DETROIT - Talk about a · mi stake-filled Super Bowl. · That's what the world saw Sunday when the Pittsbutg h Steelers wo n their first title in 26 years by beating Seattle 21-10. Mistakes'' To put it ' si mply. the Steelers won hecause the Seahawks made more errors, far more . They included three dropped passes by tight end Jerramy Stevens, who spent last week as the party of the seconp part in a woofing match with Pittsburgh's Joey Porter. They also included a series of damaging penalties at the worst possible t.imes, including a holding call on right tackle Sean Locklear after an IS-yard completi on that would have giv.en the Seahawks a first and goal at the Pittsburgh I ear.ly in the fourth period ahd a chance to go ahead 17- 14. And those came after a first half in which Seattle lost 10 to 14 points because of mi s- Buckeyes from Page81 tak:e s. In .fact. while Pittsburgh had two superb ly executed , long touchdowns - a Super Bowl record 75 -yard to uchdown run by Willie Parker and a 43-yard reverse pass from An twaan Randle El to Hines Ward - thi s was a ~a me Seattle lost as mu t h as the Stee lers won. Mistakes'' The Seahawks were onlv in the game be~a use Pittsburgh's Ben Rnethli sberger made a hu~e error of his own. underthrowing what should have been a TD pass to Cedrick Wilson in the third quarter. In stead. Kellv Herndon took the underthrown ball back 76 yards, leadin g to a Seattle touc hdown that made it 14- 10 when it should have been 21 3. .. Start wi th tile fi rst half, when the Seahawks con. tro lled play but went off. trai lin n 7-3. ::_Darrel l Jackson w:1s called for offensive pass inter~ ference for pushing off Chris Hope on what wo~ld have been a 16-yard completion from Matt Hasselbeck. The call was a lit tle ti cky-tacky, but ii was a penalty. - A holding penalty on Chris Gray that negated an 1 8 ~ ya rd completion from Hasselbeck to Jackson th at would ha ve g'iven the Seahawks a first down at the Piltsburgh 23. . - A 34-yard pu nt return by Peter Warrick , to the Pittsburgh 46 was called back by a holding penalty on Etric Pruitt. Although to be fair, there's nothing unusual about a penal ty on any punt or ki ck in any game 0 • - . Fi nall y, some dubio us clock management and play calling th at forced Josh Brown into trying a 54-yard fie ld goal late in the half. 1t \was wide right, so the Steelers led 7-3 at intermission despite being outplayed for· most of the half. But that only was a preface for the mistakes in the second half - the Roethli sberger interception , a couple of more Stevens drops, then finall y, the decisive penalty on Locklear.

Athletic director Gene Smith "had been instructed by the NCAA not to comment on any aspect of the heari ng or the case," Ohio State spoke sman Steve Snapp said . The university has conceded nine violatrons, seven in ,the men 's basketball program and one each for tbe women 's basketball and foo tbaH teams.

Tim Kame responded fo r the Democratic Party. But of them wore both Halloween costumes of conciliatory bipartisanship. "To confront the great issues before us," Bush satd, ··we must act in a sptrit of good will and re.spect for one another -· and I will do my part." "Our greatest need is for America to heal its partisan wounds and become one peop le," Kaine said, quotin g Thomas Jefferson. "Tonight we pray, earnestly and humbly, for that healing, and for the day when servi ce return s agam as the better way to a new national politics." Amen. If only both sides meant what they said. Bush identifted a senes of issues - the competitivene ss challenge from China and Indta. America ·s "addiction" to oi l, risin g health care costs, the challenge of th~ baby boomer generation's reti~ement , the necessny to win victory in Iraq and ward off terronsm - that cry out for a btpartisan working out of so lutions. ·, But the sad reality ts that Republicans and Democrats are in a state of near, total war, and this is a deci sive election year in which Democrats hope to setze back control of one or both chambers of .Congress and use their new power to inve stigate all the real and imagined wrongdoing of the Bu sh admmi stration . And, I strongly suspect, they will look for grounds and evidence to try to impeach Bush, makmg hi s last years in office the kind of hell that Republicans tried to inflict on former President Bill Clinton. Until Bu sh fought back last year, Democrats mounted a campaign to expose his alleged "lies'' prior to the Iraq war. Now they charge that he '' broke Kondracke the law" in ordering warrantless "domestic spying." If Democrats were to take control of the House, It 's almost impossible to imagine that they cou ld restrain themselves in trying to flay Bush 'and then put him in the dock. Republicans know full we ll what's at stake in the 2006 election, so it will be bitter. And beneath a thin veneer of conc ili ation, Bu sh !lashed the weapons that he'll certainly employ as the year goes on and partisan conflict mtensifies - charges that those who refuse to follow his lead represent "isolationi sm," "protectionism," "decl ine" and· " retreat.'" Two weeks ago, Bush political adviser Karl Rove !aiel out pretty expli ci tly how the 2006 campaign will be fqught - by accusing " many•· Democrats of hav ing "a pre-9/11 worldview." " It doesn' t make them unpatriotic," he said. "But tt does make them wrong - . deeply and profoundly wrong" Bu sh told Congress in the State of the Union that "in this dec isive year, you and I will make choices that determine both the future and charac ter of our country. We will choose to act confidently in pursuing the enemtes of freedom or retreat from our duties . '"We will choose to build ·our prosperity by leadmg the world econom y - or shut ourselves off from trade and opportunity.

NASA Glenn Research Center has lost 200 jobs and expects to lose another 300 as the northeast Ohio faci-lity struggles to find a leadership role in the Bush administration's space exploration goals, the center 's new director said Monday. The president's vision of sending astronauts back to the moon, . and eventually to Mars, comes at the expense of aeronautics re~earch, a n1ajor program at NASA Glenn. The center's budget is expected to decrease 27 percent to $3~0 million in fiscal year 2007. even as the overall agency's budget ·increases 3 percent to $16.8 billion .

DETRO IT (AP) - The : P_insburgh Steelers owned the . easy road to the Super Bowl : all those years they squan· : dered home-field advantage, · all those years coach Bill : Cowher's teams couldn 't : stand up to the pressure, the : moment, the challenge.

"It •feels so much better to · do something people say you : can't do," linebacker Joey : Porter sa1d after the Steelers : won their first Super Bowl 10 26 years by beating the : Seattle Seahawks 21-l 0 : Sunday nigh t. "There 's no . better feeh ng than that. We · · will always be remembered · for the way we did it." After going from 15- l a year ago to an underachieving ll-5 during a regular season marked by injuries - quarterback Ben Roethlisberger was out fou r weeks with two knee problems - and a three-game losing streak, the Steelers fit a career's worth of highlights into a month 's worth of playoffs. . By doi'ng so, those fo ur AFC championship game losses and one Super Bowl defeat since January 1995 finally began to fade into the P.ast, along with the perception the Steelers and their coach couldn 't win the big one. Even Terry Bradshaw, Joe Greene. Franco Harri s and Lynn Swann, stars of the Stet lers' four Super Bowl champion s of the 1970s. never put together anything like thi s championship run of a lifetime. The Steelers rallied from l 0 points down to win at Cincinnati. helped by an early injury to Bengals star quarterback Carson Palmer. They beat Super Bowl favorite Indianapolis 21 -18 in a stunning upset that will be long_ remembered for Jerome Bettis' late-game fuinble that nearly turned a certain victory into a historic defeat, and the Roethlisberger tackle that made certain it didn 't. That victory earned them to a 34-17 AFC championship game win at Denver. Then, after a bye week that dramed · AP photo some of their momentum after they won seven games in Pittsburgh Steelers head coach Bill Cowher reacts on the center siage after ther Steelers· 21· seven weeks, they shook off 10 win over the Seattle Seahawks in the Super Bowl XL football game in Detroit on Sunday.

When Greene winmng the Sup~r Bowl and "There's a lot of people ts the closest team we've ever had," Cowher said - and this team 's future. The core components are ~elati vely young, which should make the Steelers contenders for years : the 23-yearold Roethlisberger, the youngest QB to win a Super Bowl ; Willie Parker, the running back who starred for a Super Bowl champion after not starting in college; Super . Bowl MVP receiver Hines Ward; All-Pro guard Alan Faneca; safety Troy Polamalu; nose tackle Casey Hampton; linebackers ·Joey Porter and James Farrior. .' "This will make coach Cowher even hungrier," defensive end Aaron Smith said. " He will enjoy this; but come next season he'll be even hungrier to get back here.'' There will be the inevitable changes created by free agency. Eleven players can become unrestricted free agents. including Antwaan Randle El, who threw the first Super Bowl touchdown pass by a wtde receiver; defensive end Kimo von Oelhoffen, corn~rback Deshea Townsend, safety Chris Hope, backup quarterback Charlie Batch and running back Verron Haynes. Starting cornerback Ike Taylor is a restricted ' free agent. And while Cow~er ~1 ted Columbus to inspire his team, maybe he also should have quoted Robert Frost's poem "The Road Not Take n." Frost wrote: "I took the roao less traveled by, and that has made all the difference." The Steelers took the road le ss trave led, too, and what a difference it made. ·Reflection and appreciation will Cavs slip·past .have to wait for frustrated Seahawks Milwaukee, 89-86 tou chdown s before Pittsburgh held him to 95 yards and out of the end zone.
