Top ten Arizona Cardinals excuses for losing the Super Bowl

10. Going in, didn’t realize it was a contact sport with lots of pushing and shoving.

9. Overly cocky after winning the coin toss.

8. Couldn’t stop laughing at those half-time Doritos ads.

7. Under the mistaken impression there was going to be a fifth quarter.

6. Team members so excited about seeing The Boss, they completely lost their focus.

5. Cardinals Head Coach Ken Whisenhunt, who plays a lot of golf, got confused and thought low score won.

4. ‘Steelers’ sounds so much more macho than ‘Cardinals.’

3. Thought, with six games to go, there was still plenty of time to win the series.

2. For some reason, felt oddly “out of sync” after watching Faith Hill and Jennifer Hudson perform.

1. All part of long-range plan to make the Steelers feel overconfident for Super Bowl XLIV.
