wow.... Seattle did get rip on the call,however, this is not going to make it better nor the game of the NFL.

RENTON, Wash. -- NFL referee Bill Leavy acknowleded he made mistakes in the Seattle Seahawks' 2006 Super Bowl loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers.

The veteran official began an annual rules interpretation session with the Seattle media on Friday by bringing up the subject without being asked.

Leavy says he "kicked two calls in the fourth quarter" and "impacted the game, and as an official you never want to do that."

The veteran official of 15 NFL seasons says the game "left me with a lot of sleepless nights" and that "I'll go to my grave wishing that I'd been better."

This week is the first time since that game that Leavy has been in Seattle with the Seahawks.

I knew there were some bad calls in that Super Bowl, so I am not surprised.

same here, but can you imagine the REFS for that Rose Bowl game coming out and saying we gave the game to Ohio State over Miami.
