Fox TV | Jan. 20, 2008

The New York Giants will meet the New England Patriots in the 2008 Super Bowl to be played Feb. 3 at University of Phoenix Stadium in Glendale, Arizona.

The Giants became NFC champs Sunday night after beating the Green Bay Packers in overtime 23-20.

The unbeatened Patriots (18-0) claimed the AFC championship earlier by defeating the San Diego Chargers 21-12.

When I got backc from Asia, the first thing I did was go to a Patriots/Oakland game - - it was held at a high school stadium(?) - - named the “Manning Bowl.”

I go back to when our team was called the BOSTON Patriots:)

...and I go back to the days of the New York Football Giants.

Lynn, MA used to have a stadium for high school football,
concerts, etc. called Manning Bowl. Recently razed to make
way for the new version, Manning Field... but had the Colts beaten the Chargers and then the Pats in that order, the
Super Bowl could have become the Manning Bowl...

thanks for that page, and yes I did see the letterhead at top saying “Fenway Park” as an address.

I wonder how NFL films is going to handle “America’s Game” if the Giants do win the Super Bowl.

[Beckwith]

I wonder when I’m going to win the lottery?

[Beckwith]

I know - - I was there - - watching a Patriots football game before they had a stadium.

I was also at the very first game played at Schaeffer Stadium.

[Perdogg]

Okay, which New England fan is going to take responsibility for this?

Yeah but the last time the Pats and Giants played it was a very good game. Maybe they repeat the perfomance?

I go back to when our team was called the BOSTON Patriots:)

I go back to Brian Sipe and Ken Anderson. :)

In your list, it is amazing how close the losing score in the second game was to the winning score in the first.

[Perdogg]

Maybe even overtime.

Is that the Patriot's official team mascot now? She's goofy and augmented.

Word has it that Helen Thomas has also dressed in a thong + tube top and made a similar rap for the Giants. If I find it on the net, I'll post it here first! Picture that if you will...

The Old Arab in public, wearing a thong?

Can you say mass suicides?

Have you noticed that since Jeromy Shockey broke his leg , the Giants have not lost. Manning has been unbeatable because Shockey has not been on the sidelines harassing him about his play. Manning has stepped up his play because of this. He can forget about the distraction of that and play his game.
