Running Supe XLII/42nd Large And Important American Football Game Thread

SI is a good deal. The football is $44 and the DVD is $25.

 

You know that's going to be someone's avatar by the end of the day.

 

Send the magazine to one of those third world countries, like they do with the 2007 Chicago Bears Super Bowl Champion hats and shirts. One magazine = one month's fuel supply.

 

I'm still in shock and still heartbroken as hell.
This is a major choke job by the Patriots (I'm a fan), biggest one in football history and definitely top 5 in all sports. At the same time, the Giants earned and deserved to win the game and be champions.

My reasons: Bellichick got outcoached by Coughlin; including that stupid 4th-13 passing instead of Field Goal. Giants defense destroyed the Pats OL. Pats defenses missed great opportunities: NY's fumble in first half, missed INT and sack opportunities on Eli's heroic drive. Eli had the last comeback drive (my heart sunk during the Tyree catch :'().

Congrats NY Giants and their fans.

 

Well, that's one.

Where's bostonbred?

 

Bill is obviously forgetting Super Bowl XL, which felt like a Steelers home game thanks to the tens of thousands Yinzers in the crowd.

 

He jumped off the John Hancock Tower sometime late last night.

 

Because "rally late" isn't what they did best all year. "Beat ass" is what they did. Blow people the fuck out is what they did best. Not "rally late".

 

Yes, what a secret it's been. The proles get shut out on Super Bowl Sunday. Stop the presses.

Like Bill.

Maybe -- maybe -- it has something to do with Arizona's place as a haven for snowbirds and Eastern retirees. But who knows.

 

Colts. Ravens. Eagles.

 

OK, that's three. Care to account for the other 15. Or does three comebacks equate to "what they do best".

 

Not really sure how other Patriot fans are doing. But for me, well, my eyes are still watery and my spirit is as low as any depressed person can be. I'd give up marriage and family life to see Pats go perfect. The last drive Eli made was a spear to my heart, still is. This pain won't be healed for a long long time. It may never be healed at all.
