Giant fans hoping for a better outcome than the last time they had to travel to Green Bay for a championship game.

As a Giants fan, I of expect them to lose by 21. Eli will come crashing down to earth, as the winds cause his weak passes to fall into the hands of greenbay defenders.
As for my AFC team, the Pats, I expect them to win big. By 4 touchdowns. San Diego is full of overratted, trash-talking losers, lead by a head coach who only has a career because of emmitt Smith and Troy Aikman.

You know, we'll probably get our asses kicked by the Patriots in the Super Bowl, but I would rather play them than the Chargers.

One game at time, please. Let's beat the Giants first.

My deepest fears, expressed earlier in the season but not expected to materialize, may be realized again. I am a life-long passionate Packer fan who grew up in CT when nobody rooted for the Pats. Over the years I began to root for the Pats also, starting with the season they lost to da Bears in the Super Bowl (Packer fans root against da Bears like us Red Sox fans root against the dern Yankees). So here I am for the second time in the last 11 years faced with the possibility my two teams might meet in the Super Bowl.

What makes it even harder this time is that the Pats could go undefeated while on the other hand it is likely Brett Favre's last shot. ARGH!!! Go, Pack Go!! Go Pats!!

Of course it could be the Chargers vs. the Giants too!

The Packers are a young team, so it’s not at all likely that they will miss out on this chance. Favre isn’t calling it a career. He wouldn’t even do that when he sucked. He sure isn’t doing that when he’s played great.

As a Giants fan, I’d say you don’t have anything to worry about. The Giants choke under pressure and their secondary is banged up. GreenBay should win easily.

620 WTMJ News Radio has got wall to wall coverage.

What impresses me about Mike McCarthy is that he will not allow his team to get overconfident.

They understand the tremendous rush the Giants defense has as a team.

The Packers will be ready.

Saw 3 people from Mass this morning that were headed to Green Bay for the game. (My brother as well...)

GO PACK!

Green Bay fans don't want to admit it, but they're a tad bit nervous. We are the underdogs again. We are supposed to lose.

And I'll tell you what. My SuperBowl was last week beating the Cowgirls. Because if the SuperBowl was going to be the Cowgirls and the Patriots, I would find something better to do, like FReep during that one.

But since the Cowgirls are gone, the NFC needs to win. I am hoping for a Chargers - Giants SuperBowl since my brother has seasons tickets to the Bolts. No matter who wins this game though, I want them to beat the AFC representative.

- 5 at the moment, but the wind is dying down.

Should not be a factor this evening.

Should be a good game.

We have great respect for the Giants, and everyone knows what a great defensive line they have.

Very interesting......I've always been Giants fan. Stuck with them through lots of loosing seasons. But had other favorites, The Pack and the Boston Patriots among them.

I'm sticking with the Giants.

Until this year, my last great moment as a sports fans was wwatching the Giants blow out Minnesotta 41-0 in the 2001 NFC title game. It was a beautful sight. And they got my hopes up. And they got crushed by the Ravens in the superbowl. If the Giants were to somehow beat the Packers, they’d get destroyed the second time around with the Pats. So I’m expecting the worst, and am happy that the Giants at least crushed the hopes of cowboy fans this year. That’s enough for me right now.

I hope it is a good game at least. Either way, the G-men or the Pack needs this SuperBowl win!
