I’m not sure you could fit more into one day. It was a success for some and a disappointment for others, but no matter how you cut it, NFL’s Opening Kickoff 2009 certainly was entertaining.

Steelers coach Mike Tomlin said Troy Polamalu had a sprained medial collateral ligament, but just how severe the injury is would be “speculation.”

Just when you think a game is just destined to play out a certain way … this game is headed to overtime, folks.

The Heinz Field crowd quiet? It was nearly silent during the halftime celebration honoring new Hall of Famer Rod Woodson.

Steelers 7, Titans 7. Would you have it any other way? Not me.

Tim McGraw is onstage, getting a big reaction from a pretty packed house of Terrible Towel-waving fans during his one-hour set. But the Black Eyed Peas are coming on in 20 minutes and — as somebody who has seen them a number of times — I am excited.

The green room backstage — which is the black-and-gold room here — is brimming with celebrities, including country-music singer Tim McGraw and his wife, Faith Hill; former Raiders WR Tim Brown and 2009 Hall of Fame inductee Rod Woodson.

Musician/actor/recording artist Harry Connick Jr. will be singing tonight’s national anthem, an honor he said he takes quite seriously while chatting after his soundcheck.

The crowd is starting to swell in anticipation of Kickoff 2009.
