Jim Hostler happened. That, and receivers who can't catch the ball. Martz will at least bring us back to the 2006 level, which would have probably earned us 8 or 9 wins with this year's defense. Improvement to the top 20 offensively will probably earn a playoff spot.

If you want the stock market to go up, you must root for the Giants to win...

Fuck. I hate Patriot fans, so I can't root for them... but I also want the market to continue to decline as I just started up a new IRA.

So, is a bet on the Giants more or less stupid than my bet on the Rockies?

The NFL.com poll is real clsoe to 50/50 right now... so while I expect the Giants to be able to make a game and maybe win, there's probably too much money on them right now, so the odds might be good for a bet on the PAts.

Pats are going to win.

And even as tired as I am with the recent Boston domination of pro sports, and even as tired I am of NYC vs. Beantown bullshit... I'm looking forwards to the Pats wrapping up a perfect season w/ a SuperBowl win.

I just hope the Yankees and Sox both suck balls next season... just to counter this annoying trend of only 5% of America caring about sports championships 'cause the teams are always from the same damn towns.

Not really that awesome until the 4th quarter. Spectacular ending though. Fuck those Patriots right in their stupid butts.

The whole game was pretty awesome actually, if you're a relatively knowledgeable fan. Seeing New York's D line constantly blow up the Patriots offensive line was not normal, but very welcome. Same with seeing Brady out of synch with everything. His final numbers didn't suck, but they aren't good enough to keep calling Brady the best ever after a game like that in the Super Bowl.

3 quarters of defense, 1/2 a quarter of offense.

Manning's "let go of me" scramble and bomb with helmet catch was F'ing amazing.

Yeah but the amazing part about it was the catch against the helmet, not Manning shaking off a 3 finger shirt grab. I thought that was a great game.

I was bored out of my mind until the 4th Qtr. But I did get a lot of cleaning and painting done on the car's engine bay while waiting for the game to get good... so that's a plus I guess.

I think it was more than 3 fingers, but he was pretty close to surrounded. I agree that the catch was great. As I recall, he actually caught it with two hands, but the defender pulled one away which is when he had it between his hand and the helmet for a bit.
