Patriots 24
Giants 21

or

Giants 24
Patriots 21

Doesn't matter to me either way...I don't get a check.

I have 2 grand on the Giants. 20-17

Giants: 37

Patriots: 29

Jets: 0

It is really to close to call. I suspect that the difference will be a field goal one way or another and that the total points scored by both teamswill be around 60.

The Giants have been playing great recently and to be honest Eli has been magnificent, but can he keep it up for one more game? However, Brady is coming off, charitably, a mediocre game against the Ravens and will be extra motivated. Also BB will have a lot of tricks up his sleeve which I doubt Coughlin can match.

If she doesn't do something dirty with Bieber, I'll be disappointed.

eh, watching a 70 year old broad with skeletor arms in a studded bustier prance around like an agitated praying mantis should undoubtedly make me projectile vomit yuengling onto my plasma......

I'm sure that some people would refer to that as, "Tuesday".

She's only 53.

I have to post this, only because the guy made fun of the concept of a Super Bowl halftime.

"Ladies and gentlemen, for the next twelve minutes, we're going to bring the righteous and mighty power of the E Street Band into YOUR beautiful home. I want you to step back from the guacamole dip, I want you to PUT THE CHICKEN FINGERS DOWN! And turn your televison ALL the way up! And what I want to know is -

IS THERE ANYBODY ALIVE OUT THERE!!!

Ridski, very bad things tend to happen to people who modify Bobk quotes. Be careful, very careful for the next few days.

Oh, not again, Mr. Killbunny!

I know it's wrong, but you're being funny for once.

In overtime

if the guys on the ravens hadn't dropped a sure td ball and/or missed a chip shot, pats wouldnt be here. giants win this easy.

Boston area has plenty!
What do you call a Patriot fan with a champagne bottle in his hand?
A Waiter!

I actually thing there's a chance the giants win big. I'm saying 35-17 Giants.

Of course, there's also a chance I'll develop an ulcer during the game.

Patriots win by two touchdowns. It's the All American, handsome QB with the supermodel wife (the greatest QB of all time by the way) vs. the rube. The Giants are the all around better team, but Brady wins the day. He's that great. No one in the history of football has done more with less than Tom Brady. Except maybe John Elway, when the Broncos made the Super Bowl solely because of him, but were crushed. Brady is the most accurate passer in NFL history. Revenge for 2008. Remember that final drive in 2008 when Gomer Pyle threw two balls (to Asante Samuel and Mike Vrabel) that should have been intercepted, and then threw up a Hail Mary and David Tyree made the greatest catch in football history. And people act as though Eli Manning actually contributed to that win. What a joke. The Giants won in spite of Goober that day.

Go Patriots!

I saw them all. I remember those the most. The Asante Samuel drop of a horrible Eli pass is probably the play I remember the most, even more than the Tyree catch. If he holds onto that gift, Eli is an afterthought, which he should be. A very non-clutch throw. Give Kerry Collins, or even Dave Brown,, a few extra chances and a miracle catch, and they could be be Super Bowl winners too.

You're 100% right about the Samuel play. My stomach dropped on that one.

Here's the NY Giant "great" picking his large nose:

Oy, so now the 18-0 Pats defense wasn't even good. In only 7 out of the 18 wins did they allow more than 17 points. Yes Eli was lucky on some, but he was clutch on plenty. People can put any spin on it they want, the fact is that the 4th quarter began with the Giants on their own 20-yd line with 3 total points, and they ended up with 17. How anyone can say putting up 14 points in the 4th quarter of the Super Bowl against an undefeated two-touchdown favorite to win 17-14 isn't clutch, I have no idea. (In fact, Eli was the first QB to throw two 4Q go-ahead TDs in Super Bowl history.)

45yd game changing perfect pass to Boss...4th quarter. Bradyesque play action needle-threading TD to Tyree...4th quarter. Sideline out to Smith for clutch (and needed) 3rd down conversion just before the game winner...4th quarter. One-on-one read for lob to Plax...4th quarter.

Yes, the Giants won largely -- if not primarily -- on the job the defense did to hold Brady and the Pats' offense to 14 (although where were they on the Pats go-ahead drive?). And yes, there were certain very lucky moments for Eli. But to say he had nothing to do with the win is just...well...Eli-hating. Nothing more.

I do still love The Pretenders, though!

Didn't forget them -- I've acknowledged them a couple times now. And I agree -- all in good fun! Here's to a fun, exciting game tomorrow.
