    Re: Giants win!!

    Manning getting out of that crowd and the insane catch by Tyree has to be the most amazing play I've ever seen, up there with Endy Chavez' NLCS catch last year, except that the Giants actually won. I've never really liked Manning, but as a guy on the FAN just said, he out-Brady'd Brady in the 4th quarter tonight.

    Now that I am capible of speaking as I sit here in the tower tonight was the date of what was probably the most amazing, exciting and meaningful games for me that I have watched in my life. This being spoken by a Jets fan.

    The Jets knocking off the Colts in Superbowl III is very hard to top
    That one was kind of misleading, Jimmy the Greek who set that line got it very wrong. The colts IMO weren't that strong.

    Amazing! I watched it, and I still have a hard time believing it! A great game by the defense, some big plays on offense, and Eli Manning MVP! Big plays, and a last minute drive to win the game - it doesn't get any better than that!

    GO BIG BLUE!!!!!!!!!!
    Def a nice night for NY sports. A well played game and good result! Don't really see Eli getting the MVP but did you see that hybrid Escalade! It's so ironic!

    Was a great game indeed, watched it at a local superbowl party here with our local football team. Brady didn't have a chance against the Giants defense.

    I am just blown away by all aspects. This has to go down as one of, if not the, biggest upset in all of sports history. Beating the undeafeated team in a one-game final makes it as shocking as possible.

    The Giants made quite a few dumb mistakes, but still came out on top. With the exception of one fumble by Brady, the Pats were near flawless. No matter how much people talked garbage, no matter how hard the challenge they faced on the field, they fought and fought and fought.

    I don't know who said it, but in the clips I can't stop watching online, one Giant said along the lines of "Everything we do....it's just a game. It's just a game. The reality is that it means very little, but to the guy who works all day to struggle to put food on the table for mother and baby, and to the soldiers to put it all on the line overseas....we hope we were able to put a smile on your face for a few hours and distract you from all that is life."

    True class. TRUE BLUE WOOOOO!!!!!

    That was the first time this season anyone has managed to put any real pressure on Brady...

    Phil, I can't stop watching either. Seeing scenes of Times Square, people running into the streets as if WWII was just won again. It's beautiful!

    As some of you know, I am not a HUGE fan of most sports seasons. I just don't have the time or desire to follow any season. But I enjoy a well fought game.

    That said, going into this game, I was wanting the Giants to win firstly b/c I am a fan, 2nd they were underdogs and lastly, I was really hoping the Manning family would be stricken with pride. That is really something special.

    Shosh and I watched from kickoff. Usually I can sense a blowout but early in that first quarter, I knew I was going to watch this game through simply because you could tell it was going to be a great, close game.
    I was praying with the Mannings and got tearry eyed with Burress. It was just beautiful.

    Gotta love that one players comments to the press, when asked about the pass to Tyrell, he says, "WE practiced that all week!" like it was no big thang. ROFLMAO!

    Man, did you see that clip, Brian, from the pregame warmup, Eli passing to the top corner of the endzone? Just like that, he executed and our house roared! WOW.

    Bri, I am glad you brought up Belichick. I don't care for the guy. Again, I'm don't watch 16 games a year but BUt I didn't get the whole 0:01 second BS at the end there. Was he really being a huge sore loser?

    Can someone enlighten me?
    It just seemed that he did not want to concede the loss.
    WTF was wrong with him?! Am I wrong to think it?
    And I, I took the path less traveled by
    and that has made all the difference......yet...
    I have a feeling a handle of people are going to be very interested in what I post in the near future.

    I can't blame his reaction. It's so shocking that his team would lose the way that they did that I can understnad him just wandering off like that. He did walkover and congratulate the Giants team before walking off, though.

    The one-second thing wasn't a Patriots decision; I think it was up to the NFL. And it wasn't a Pats play...the Giants had posession on downs. Belichick walked onto the field after the last real play.

    Bellicheck is shocked. He got cocky. I think that this is the punch in the face for New England that might topple them in the end. Him and Brady were blown away at the news confrences and could barely look at a camera. They knew they were going to win it in their heads but we here in NY prooved it once again that NY is the city of sports.
