So the Giants pulled it out of their asses...

[General Zod]

I'll echo the sentiments of those who were rooting against the Pats, instead of rooting for the the Giants. I've never been a Giant fan (although I live in NJ). And when Eli snubbed San Diego, I developed a serious dislike for the youngest Manning. However, the Patriots are:

A) a Boston team (the Redsox of football, if you will)
B) have a coach I dislike
C) play the game devoid of sportsmanship
D) are cheaters
E) needed a good comeuppance

I think the Patriots (along with most of America) just kept expecting they'd make a play when it mattered. Consequently, they never really upped their intensity, during the game, like you would have expected a team to do. You have to tip your hat to the Giant D, and especially the line. They made the Pat O-Line their bitch last night. And good for Coughlin. The man deserves a ring.

The game was better than the commercials!!!


Except the Fed Ex one with the giant pigeons... - I liked that one. And the one with the screaming animals...


But yeah... the Giants indeed suprised me last night...

"In other news, Mercury Morris cums his pants vociferously following the Patriots' loss last night, causing him to rip his pants in two. Upon hearing the sound, the rest of the '72 Dolphins begin popping the champagne prematurely, mistaking the sound of Morris' ejaculation for the popping of the first cork."

This was the only downside of the Pats' loss. Those Dolphin players friggin are annoying, and showed themselves to be a bit classless this year. That Dolphin team played one team, all year, with a record above .500. Plus, if you lined up the '72 Dolphin team, with a modern day team, they'd get their asses handed to them. Modern day athletes are not only bigger, but faster as well. Not to mention, the game has become much more complex.

Agreed. I was hoping the Patriots would win to shut that Dolphins team up.

 

[skeptik]

Agreed, but it's all worth it not allowing Bill Bitchichick and Tom Brady to join that elusive fraternity of mutual masturbation.

Man, I'm loving the 40+ Super Bowls!

40: Steelers (my number one team)
41: Colts (my number three team)
42: Giants (my number two team)

 

[Dark One]

You have two number three teams?

 

[skeptik]

No.

 

[Ars Magna]

I actually wanted the Pats to win. I fall into the camp that is tired of seeing the Miami team think they are the shit. Not to mention that I loathe all things Manning. The Giants defense was amazing. You could tell early on that it was their night.

if Bruce Springsteen wrote a song that was turned into a football game, that would have been it.

Haha, couldn't be more true.

My favorite ones were the Fed Ex pigeons and the screaming stain.

Does anyone care who does and doesn't participate in the Pro Bowl? Hell, if it was the only thing on T.V., I'd probably just take a nap. Why they even hold it is beyond me. It should simply be a selection, with no game attached.

Absolutely could not agree more. The baseball all star game is the only one really worth watching if you're a fan since the game can basically be played with at least somewhere near the same intensity that the other regular season games are played at. The football one is held after the season and is the most worthless of them all. The basketball and hockey ones are high scoring, no intensity garbage games since no one is willing to be physical and are basically just as worthless.

Oh yeah, and the Patriots suck. After all, 2nd place is simply the first loser.

The baseball all star game also means something. The winning team gives their division home field advantage in the world series.

This thread is lame.
