Super Tuesday?
19-0. A tean for the ages. I guess if you can’t cheat, you can’t win. Don’t tell me how great you are when you choke in the BIG ONE. No one will remember 18-0. Everyone will remember the big CHOKE. Tough luck that, but they got EVERY BREAK running up to the Super Bowl, guess they didn’t pay the refs enough....
And, I’ll bet for $120 - $150 the rooms are beautiful, too.
What a rip-off for any hotel to charge $700/night for FIVE nights - for one night in a dumpy room.
She probably will in real life.
Unless she’s already...You were kidding, right?
It's the first half time show I can remember where they had a talented performer.
Hey Sheriff! Hope you enjoyed tonight as much as I did. I’m gonna guess there’s a lot bigger screen there in heaven than there was in your living room for XXI and XXV.
Miss ya, Buddy.
Eli and Peyton, two class acts.
Aww, thank you kindly sir. I love my Packers and I'll always be a fan no matter what their season it like.
It’s not “spin” - it’s simply how I look at it. I said that. I said that few if anyone agrees with me. I simply don’t care so much more about the SB than many other games. Somewhat more, sure, of course..... but not “infinitely” more. I don’t lose all enjoyment of the Pats’ season now — maybe other people do but I don’t.
Of course, I’m primarily a RED SOX fan, so I had many, many years in which to learn to find some satisfaction in limited success!!!!!!!!!!!!!
As incredible as Moss is, there will never be a 1a to Rice...he may be the best at any position to play the game.
Clearly, you don't live in Michigan.
Well, I’d bet Brady would not allow people to blame his injury. Its all the other homers and apologists that would. ‘If Brady were 100%, blah blah blah...’ Loser always look for excuses. Winners never quit.
It’s fun living in Dallas being a lifelong Giant’s fan, I can certainly say that. I’d like to think I could be so friendly and kind were the situation reversed, but I’m a horrible loser when it comes to the Giants and even NASCAR. I’m trying to stay away from the boards now that the Giants have won the Superbowl, because I’m also a Jersey girl, born and raised there which means I still have the tendency to be an in your face kind of winner, too. The flu is keeping me in check, though. :)
The Giants definitely wanted this more. The Patriots looked like they felt they deserved it, which was their downfall.
Archie Manning, left, poses with his sons, Peyton Manning, Cooper Manning and Eli Manning as they arrive at the Barnstable Brown Derby party in Louisville, Ky., in this Friday, May 4, 2007, file photo. In the very special case of the Manning family of New Orleans, the baby brother had to wait his turn to make it to the Super Bowl.
I would rather be 14-6 with a Super Bowl victory. IMHO. Of course I will try to tell you that going to four straight super bowls in a row is better than winning one, and you won’t buy that either...
Agree the interview was pathetic and I felt embarrassed for him. No he did not congratulate the Giants. A sore loser. It was a perfect win for the Giants, underdogs, Patriots not a game lost but the cheating thing .... KARMA got 'em!
The newer Super 8s are almost always nice. The older ones...blah.
As for Motel 6...it’s a gamble, with not very good odds.
When they had the “Heartbreaker Heart” get driven through by the Electric Guitar you knew it was going to be good. Tom Petty is a perfectionist and it showed. I really enjoyed it.
Yes they are.
Well enjoyed the thread all - turning in. Good night - and good game!
Bellichek - they played well.
It’s tough to lose graciously. Patriots: Hats off to the Giants. Ok - sportsmanship - good. No violence, no people shot in the street. Just good old American football....it’s the best.
The Giants certainly deserve it.
One of the best games ever.
