Being from Ohio, I would have perferred Pittsburgh not to win.

Being an official, glad to see the call was correctly called on the field and correctly confirmed in the booth.

Have a good day now.

Still shots are inadmissible and the video angles proved to be inconclusive, so I'll go with the calling official who was in perfect position about 20' from the receiver.

I don't think the video is inconclusive at all. Look at the second photo that was posted. Holmes' right foot was fully extended. If you watch the video you can see his right foot flex as he hits the ground. There's no question about the left foot and he had complete control of the ball.

Touchdown. Excellent call!

...and we were lucky enough to be able to fly the calling official (Greg Gatreaux) over to the UK to be the guest speaker at our 2 day football training clinic in April 2009.

Touchdown.

The critical part of the video is when the referee signals touchdown.
