Yeah. I don't have a TV, so I need some clues for water-cooler chatter tomorrow. Was NE over-confident and did the stud Brady just have a bad day? And Eli? Did both of them go "thud."
Or was it a matter of two strong defenses, with players' name you will never know, going nose to nose?

This was the case of too strong defenses was at play in this game.
I'm sure glad I didn't bet on this game.
This was the greatest upset and most unpredictable win. Well done Giants..you deserved the win.
Congrats to Giants and Giants fans everywhere!

Simply amazing! The Miz and I are on the road, in - of all places - Glenns Ferry, Idaho, where we were able to watch the game in the Redfern Motel. The pass play from Manning to Tyree should go down as one of the all-time clutch plays in Super Bowl history.

That...was...AWESOME!
I really thought the Giants would blow it, right up until that incredible play where Manning scrambled out of all those defenders and then Tyree made that unbelievable catch. That was when I thought, holy ****, they might actually win this f*cking thing!
Patriot fans were right about one thing. This truly was a historic game for them!
hehehehe...

and of course the former Steeler gets the game-winning touchdown.
You can blame Rockhead for this. (This'll tech im to poke fun at our cricket matches)
How is it football when nobody actually kicks the ball? (except for the brilliant Aussie punters of course).

God, that sucked. So, was anyone gonna notice when they replaced the Patriots with poorly trained androids? Man oh man my office is gonna be buzzing in all sorts of complaining ways. I better slap the earphones on early.

Like ehbeth, this was the first full game I've ever watched. I even told my boss to "expect me when he sees me."
Or rather, intended to watch. I fell asleep mid-way through the 3rd quarter. Touchdown with half a minute to go, I believe.
Thanks to JPB for a great job throughout the season.

Not a bad question, DP, but it's clear you've never watched a game.
(One of these times I'll explain the role of the Placekicker.)

Won a bet with the sports editor! Now he has to buy me lunch. I'll choose some place expensive!
Fun game. Great defense. The hungrier team won.
How can a football team claim to be perfect when they have no confidence in their kicker?
If the man can't kick a 48 yard field goal, what's he doing in the NFL?
