Well its Super Sunday and we have a clear choice to make. Jesus. The evangelism linebacker will 'blow you up' if you're afraid to share Christ with others.

And now, about the football game. There is a clear choice even if you're not fortunate enough to be a Giants fan. It is the underdog Giants trying to stop the greatest team that ever cheated. Now the Patriots are extremely talented, but if the Giants play their best football, as they've been playing for a few weeks, and they can force the Belicheats to make a mistake or two, they can win. I think the key is early pressure on Brady, getting a few sacks, and putting him on the ground a few more times and generally getting pressure on him. If the Giants offense can run the ball effectively and pound the Pats linebackers and secondary with Brandon Jacobs early they will open up the run later for Ahmad Bradshaw's explosive running. An effective running game will also open up the pass for Manning and he won't have to force anything. He is playing well right now, but he plays best when he doesn't have to force things all game. He can usually make things happen for a drive or two, but if he's forcing the ball downfield all game he is likely to make a mistake. The Giants can win, but it won't be easy. My prediction: Giants win 31-30.

So Nest, any plans today ;) I think your analysis is pretty good. Don't think we'll see that many points tho. My prediction..Pats 20, Giants 17..sorry. Would like to see an upset tho.
Watch vid, some a the hits looked pretty realistic.
CONGRATS!!
What a game! What a scramble! What a catch!
Glad they won.
A great Super Bowl, and the trophy comes back to the NFC! They didn't run the ball as well as I hoped, but the defense got even more pressure on Brady than I had hoped. Manning's only pick wasn't his fault, though he did make 1 or 2 bad throws. All in all, a great game. And the Patriots are 18-1!
Happy for you today, Nestor! I didn't have a favorite, so I was rootin for the Giants for you. Gotta say the first 3 quarters were fairly boring for me, but the end was great. (Too bad we didn't win any squares.) :(
7 3 was the square to have, it won in the 2nd and 3rd quarter. I thought the game was great, even though there was less scoring than expected. But it did have the crazy finish. Scores on the first two drives and the last two (real) drives. The Pats last possession was just desperation. They didn't have an answer for Justin Tuck or the rest of the Giants front 7.
Yeah, it was probably cuz I didn't really have a huge favorite. Everyone here was rootin for the Pats. My sister in law was here with her squares from work, and one of her co-workers won ALL FOUR QUARTERS! $500.00 for what I think was a 10 dollar buy in.
Favorite commercial? I liked the Coke one with the floats when Charlie Brown beats out Underdog and the other one. (Didn't know him.)
I liked that Coke commercial. I think my favorite was probably the Will Ferrell one. The commercials were generally pretty lame this year though. I think maybe it cost so much (2.7 million) to get them on that they couldn't afford to make them good.
That Charlie Brown was probably the sentimental one though. Chuck finally gets lucky on thanksgiving day. He usually ends up on his back wondering why he trusted Lucy.
I'm happy for Archie Manning. Congrats, Nestor!
Thanks to everyone for the congratulations. (though I didn't play very many minutes, actually, I didn't play at all) But I'm sure it was my cheering that put them over the top. ;)

I suggest you listen to the song on my post which was the Dixie Chicks covering JT's Shower The People. Maybe it wasn't written 4U. ;-)
