[Butterball]

Woo Hoo.............

I need one of those "Giants SuperBowl Champs" caps....

but I didn't see them on the site, Virgo

[proudtobefrompetal]

I'm probably going to get black-listed, but I'm rooting for the Patriots. :ohnoes:

[virgo]

I have added some addtional teasers at the bottom. :)

[Scarlett O'Hara]

Thanks, Virgo!!

[virgo]

Don't forget to get your bets in :)

[Conveyor Belt]

GoPats!!!

[virgo]

Not too many bets......no one is interested in this year's Superbowl? (And to think...I gave away all of those FREE HUBBUCKS.)

[Honey]

I was waiting till everyone else bet so I can see where to put my money. Or if noway will just tell me where then I'll go ahead and bet.

[noway]

Tails on the coin toss.. The Giants & Over is a myhburg lock..

50 bets so far...

[noway]

I bet on every outcome.. Some easy money making bets on the board. :smt102

[Kitty]

I bet all I have.

I spent too much time and money in the casino.

As usual. :smt009

Here's hoping for an unPatriotic day in Arizona!

[virgo]

Go Giants!

[noway]

Somebody get the zero off the board.. :smt103

[jmb]

Somebody get the zero off the board.. :smt103
Got it. :)

[virgo]

get your bets in!!!!!!!!!!

[virgo]

The thread is now closed.....they are about to do the coin toss.

[Bahlk]

I was wondering why it was still open

[virgo]

Tails wins the toss and first play is a RUN

[Bahlk]

Cha-Ching!!!!!

[Kitty]

First camera shot of a Manning...

Peyton.

How many more will there be?!?

[virgo]

First score is a field goal...

NY scores first

[Bahlk]

Drat, I missed the first touchdown...anybody catch it? Was it a pass or a run play? I had to run to the car for a minute.

[Kitty]

TD was a run.

Second Manning cam shot of Peyton.

[virgo]

Is it just me, or has this been kind of a boring game?

[virgo]

new england winning at the half, 7-3

[Kitty]

Is it just me, or has this been kind of a boring game?

Boring, yes.

I doubt anyone thought there'd be only a total of 10 points scored in the first half.

[dollfus46]

I don't find it boring. Great defense by the Giants. Giants are winning everywhere but on the scoreboard. Patriots know they are in a fight.

[Kitty]

Manning cam on Peyton...again.

Jeremy Shockey looks like he's having fun in the luxury box.

[Kitty]

TD Giants on an Eli pass.

Manning cam on a clapping Peyton...

[mac]

10 to 7 Giants w/ Pats on the 8.

I would just like to take this opportunity to say


GO GIANTS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[mac]

Shit.

[Kitty]

It's not over, yet!

[mac]

[Kitty]

[virgo]

Aw. Poor Tom Brady. NOT.

[Kitty]

Manning cam shows a happy Peyton.

Archie is probably on oxygen. :kekeke:

[BayFly]

Yes Plexico catch td Did you see how pumped peyton was?

[Kitty]

Pretty boy on his back!

[mac]

i CAN'T believe this

[BayFly]

Rookie Alford may have won game

[virgo]

Oh lord, this has got to be the longest 23 seconds.....

[mac]

My heart is beating so hard

[Bahlk]

Brady hit the ground hard...bummer

[virgo]

Pretty boy has been on his ass most of the game :kekeke:

GO GIANTS!!!

[Kitty]

Brady's gonna air it out to Moss.

[mac]

Brady's not looking so cool, calm, and collected right now.

[virgo]

The Pats losing would make me feel better about GB's loss two weeks ago

[mac]

4th and 20

[Kitty]

Giants WIN!

[virgo]

[virgo]

One second? WTF???

[amanda]

All Right!!! Way to go Giants!!

[Kitty]

That NE coach is such an @$$.

[virgo]

I am so happy for the Giants!!!!!!

I hate the Pats!!!

[Kitty]

Just proves that cheaters never win.

New England. Cheaters.

[virgo]

I am also very happy for Michael Strahan. He finally gets his ring! :)

[Kitty]

I love it! I love it! I love it!

[Kitty]

Eli is the MVP.

Manning cam shows a happy Peyton...

Surely Madison Avenue will come calling with endorsements using both Manning MVPs.

[Kitty]

Since the difference was three points, I wonder if NE wishes they'd gone for the 49 yard field goal on fourth down in the third quarter instead of going for the first down.

[Conveyor Belt]

damn. at least I won my money, but damn.

[dollfus46]

I am so happy for the Giants!!!!!!

I hate the Pats!!!

I can't believe I was so stupid and forgot to bet. I had said before I was putting every dime I had on the Giants. Especially after the way they played two weeks ago and the struggle the Pats had.
Oh well, now it's time for NC basketball until March madness and then my Bravos take the field.:clap::clap: Life is good.

[noway]

Coach Bill Belicheck is a prick.. leaves his team on the field for the final play.. she should be fined and suspended.. Thats why I hate the patriots.. He is such an ass

wow what a game...

[dollfus46]

damn. at least I won my money, but damn.
What's damn? Eli played brilliantly. The only interception wasn't his fault. Two TD passes and something like 236 passing yards. The kid is becoming a quarterback.

[wilebill]

Wow! What a game!

wow what a game...

I don't understand. With one second left, it was 10:00 so I changed it. Sounds odd to read he left his team on the field for the final play. Most teams are on the field for the final play. And, who is "she?" :smt102

[virgo]

I am watching NFL Network waiting to hear and see what pretty boy has to say about all of this..... (I bet Bridget Moynahan is laughing :) )

I didn't see the interview, but my husband said that in a pre-game segment Terry Bradshaw asked Tom Brady if his son (the baby he had with baby mama Bridget) would be at the game.

Tom said no. :kekeke:

[Kitty]

I can't wait to hear the sound bite from Tiki Barber.

[noway]

so... What did everyone think of the comercials? I like the planters peanut.. :laugh:

[Kitty]

I liked the Bud horse commercial with the "Rocky" theme.

It's hard to go wrong with commercials featuring animals. :smt001

[wilebill]

Here's a game question: Why didn't the Patriots get a penalty for intentional grounding when Brady was in the end zone and threw the ball where there were no Patriot receivers? He was in the pocket and rushed and threw the ball away. Should have been a penalty, and a safety.

[jojobeans1120]

Cha-Ching!!!!!


not really... didn't get anything over what we'd bet on it..... :(


It was a great game though!! YAY!!!

As good as New England might want to think they are, they can't seem to get past those Manning boys when it REALLY counts... :clap::clap::clap:

[jojobeans1120]

omg, that was my favorite too... tooo funny!!!!!!

[kevin]

Eli really deserved this Victory as he's proven himself a Leader! I quess tonight the david vs Goliath ended in the Giant kicking some major Tail. New England's Coach was such a Sore loser my God man get a positive personality!

[virgo]

I didn't see the interview, but my husband said that in a pre-game segment Terry Bradshaw asked Tom Brady if his son (the baby he had with baby mama Bridget) would be at the game.

Tom said no. :kekeke:


I saw that interview! Brady was like, "No, he's too young." Yeah, right. It's more like, "No, I am a deadbeat dad and I'd rather spend time with my girlfriend."

[virgo]

And here is another good clip about Brady and whether the Giants rattled him...


A few members of the Giants thought the unthinkable after their upset victory over New England in Super Bowl XLII. They thought they imposed their will on Patriots quarterback Tom Brady. Giants receiver Amani Toomer was the first to raise the subject during the postgame interview session.

"That sack with a couple seconds left, Brady looked like he just turned it down," Toomer said. "He didn't want it any more."

Brady took a beating, no question. The Giants sacked him five times. They hit him hard enough to knock him down nine times, according to the stat sheet (QB hits are an unofficial stat).

"I don't know if he did get rattled," linebacker Antonio Pierce said, "but he had grass stains."


What a great quote:

"I don't know if he did get rattled," linebacker Antonio Pierce said, "but he had grass stains."

:kekeke:

[lamarrebel]

Down with cheaters and Love Live the '72 Dolphins!!!

Hotty Toddy, Eli!!!

[dollfus46]

I understand Eli was named MVP? Too easy, although he was at the top of his game. I'd have to say that surely to goodness there must have been a defensive player who gave Eli a run for his money. What a defensive effort by the Giants. Wow! Has anybody held the Pats to a score that low this season? Put Brady on his butt that much in one game? I'd like someone to compare the Pats Offensive stats to their average for the season. Bet NY held them below average on every stat. Passing yards allowed, sacks, running yards, etc.
