I’m a Seahawk fan who is tired of the NFL picking the winner before the game even happens.

What was with the Giants fumble being recovered by the Pats and then given back to the Giants?

Once again the best team got hosed by the refs.

Most HS QB’s protect the football better than Eli did.

The best team won the game w/o any help from the refs.

With 35 seconds and 3 timeouts Joe would have been able to at least get the tying field goal.

Not if he was flat on his back, which is where Brady ended up.

Brady didn't 'lose' the game. The Giants D-line won it. They played great and deserve all the credit.

they did however go 16-0 in the regular season. And won 2 more playoff games. Which is pretty good and doesn't occur too often.

This ain't horseshoes. If they couldn't win the Grand Daddy then they're losers like all the other previous Super Bowl losers.

This happens every year. Of course it's bigger with the Pats going for the unbeaten season, but last year there were a bunch of "Chicago Bear World Champions" ball caps and t-shirts that got dropped in the shredder.

Same thing with the books. There was one being written for the Cowboys, Colts, Steelers, Packers, etc. Course, they didn't stick them on Amazon.com before they'd won the game. *heh*heh*

The Giants' D definitely deserves the credit, but Joe (and team) would have found a way to stymie them.

The great ones do that. Just ask Cincy.

I would like to see the Pats change the face profile on their logo, everytime I see it I think of that profile pic of young John Kerry sitting on the grass somewhere.

I like underdogs, so nice that the Giants won. I hope Hillary doesn’t rain on their parade by showing up.

But...didn’t you know? She’s ALWAYS been a Giants fan...

That's nice to think, but even the best get beat from time to time.

Last night was Brady's turn to get beat. It happens.

I give all credit to the Giants D-line. They were like a throw back to the great D-lines of the 70s.

I love that kind of football. I have missed it. It was a fun game to watch.

Or the 60s:

Lamar Lundy, Rosey Grier, Merlin Olsen, Deacon Jones

While I was home from school this Christmas my father took me to the Raiders/Chargers game as a Christmas gift. I made sure my Chargers shirt was covered by my coat until I got to my seat. I heard quite a few Raider fans questioning Philip Rivers’ sexual orientation.

Now all of the Pats and their backers/apologists can drink a tall, cool glass of Shut the F#@% up!

Dude....they're only fans and it's...just a football game.

Unitas maybe I was never much of a Marino follower.
