NEW YORK GIANTS - 17
NEW ENGLAND PATRIOTS- 13
SUPER BOWL XLII MVPEli Manning and the New York Giants are World Champions and I think it's safe to say that no one saw that coming. Not even them after starting the season 0-2 and certainly not having to face the undefeated Pats as 12-point underdogs. We are all going to see and read about that amazing last drive....Eli's scramble, unbelievable catch by Tyree and Plax's TD. But the Giants defense was on task tonight. Brady rarely had a chance to get comfortable back there and only got the Pats into the end zone after Eli's pick with a short field. I am really happy for Eli who had a tremendous amount of pressure on him before he ever threw a pass. I also enjoyed seeing Peyton so fired up after he has been pretty MIA all week which I thought showed a lot of respect for his brother. Also, Coughlin who had been on the hot seat for quite awhile. Congrats all around...I had been very apathetic toward the Super Bowl all week long but the game certainly didn't disappoint....atleast those of us in the 44 states that are not part of New England.
Commercials...eh, not much to say. Truth be told, I didn't pay that much attention but I did see my boy Ben singing the "Pina Colada" song plugging old American Idol during the 4th quarter.
Anyway, sorry for the inconsistent posting. Like laptop issues weren't enough I come home to find my TV blown out! Back tomorrow with a full length post I promise!
