Alex Smith was sacked twice and picked off once; not exactly the kind of HAVOC we expected the Steeler defense to create for the 49ers offense but they were strong once San Francisco entered the Steelers territory.

The rest of the time is spent watching ads for the new iPod Nano, featuring that "1-2-3-4" song and video so small you can't even see who or what's playing, so what the point of buying it? But we digress. With all this leisure time, it doesn't seem to be so tough playing football, after all. (Except for the concussions, broken bones, twisted ankles, blown-out knees, ruptured discs, etc.) ...
