Man I just got home and tried to follow this thread... but that crazy merge job killed all hopes of that.

Awesome job Giants!! :thumbsup: And that catch once Eli got out of that almost inevitable sack... epic!

Bellichik, you sore loser. Spygate comes to bite you in the ass doesn't it!

 

[SSSnail]

I'm just gonna pretend that this is all a bad dream...

Hey, where are you guys going? This wagon is feeling a bit light.

Ha, looks like someone was putting the cart in front of the horse (at first glance, just read yellow banner across picture of book).

Probably

Are you a Republican? Just a totally unrelated question, of course.

Libertarian

But they sucked balls before they did go all emo on the president. Just because Natalie bashed the president doesn't make them the best country band ever...

Are you a democrat?

I'm a Democrat and I think the Dixie Chicks are a joke as well. Complete waste of human flesh.

Why not merge all the football threads or sports thread into this one as well?

I think the Patriot Mod is still pissed off

I'm honored to get four of the most nonsensical retorts in this thread.
They are almost as good as PaulNEpats' replies throughout the season. You should 'pat' yourselves on the back for being so astute with your observations and absolute mastery of the english language. Really, don't hurt yourselves attempting to reply, you might make me cry like Tom Brady.

Eli Manning as the MVP.... silly.

 

[Mill]

PaulNEPats, I've been waiting to say this to you all year:


HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Your team lost. Go cry, please!!!!!

 

[Qacer]

One of the best Super Bowl games I've seen in my life. Too bad the Pats were not as hungry as the Giants. I was rooting for the underdogs, so I was happy with the outcome.

I hate to tell you, but on that last drive he won the MVP. Being able to escape that pressure and complete that pass, and then his overall poise on the drive... that's why he won the MVP.

How could you say give it to Wes Welker? C'mon. Are you serious? C'mon.

 

[Mill]

Last thing before I go back to lurk mode -- Belichick and the Pats showed a total lack of class. Let the second run off. Every other team in the world does when they lose. Bunch of sore loers.

Where's that great, all knowing football prognosticator? The one who calls himself, Dorko?
He who laps the juices of Tony Romo? He who calls Eli Manning a wimp, a loser, and a blown trade by the Giants? He who boldly stated the Cowbitches would win the Super Bowl this year, and the Giants would finish last in their Division??
Oh, Dorko?? Come out, come out, wherever you are. . .

That and most people were responding for your (SampSon) hopes that two innocent people die in a plane crash because of a football game.

[brikis98]

wow, i'm still in shock. ok, let me throw out some thoughts on the game:

1. the biggest factors in this game, without any doubt, were the giants offensive and defensive lines. their play influenced the outcome of the game far more than manning, brady, burress, moss, etc. the giant's d-line overran the patriots and put incredible pressure on brady, effectively stifling the offense. the giants o-line provided incredible protection for manning, leaving him almost untouched the entire game and giving him plenty of time to pick the pats D apart. say what you will, but all the credit goes to the o and d lines, and i congratulate them on it.
2. brady did not look like himself today, at all. as mentioned above, the pressure likely played a part in it. however, he seemed really really off: even with time & space to throw the ball, he consistently missed the target. maybe he was injured (rumors about a bad ankle), maybe he choked, but this was extremely out of character for him.
3. to add to that, the patriots offense in general has looked very different the last 3-4 games. once maroney got healthy and the cold weather came in, it seems like they switched to a more conservative short range game. this worked great during the winter, but once they got back to warm weather and a beautiful field - something that earlier in the season should have been a huge boost - they just couldn't switch back. they didn't look like the dangerous, record setting offense we'd seen all year long. the giants certainly get a lot of credit, but the pats just haven't been as lethal in the last few games.
4. the giants got very lucky with fumbles very early in the game. they choked up the ball twice - once deep in their own territory - but were fortunate to get it back each time. Had the patriots recovered and gone up 2 or 3 scores early, the game would've been over.

i gotta say that sports are crazy. had the pats won today, they would have gone down as (more or less) the greatest team in history. brady would've been (more or less) the greatest qb in history. certainly top 3 in both categories. after losing one game, they are now just a "good" team and brady is just a "good" qb. this one loss bumps them down real far the historic list. it's a damn shame - the 19-0 season would've been beautiful, but as usual, NY has to ruin the day for Boston

Well I would give it to welker if the Pats won. I mean he bailed them out when they needed the 1st downs.

Only losing player to get it was Chuck Howely? Or was it Chuck lowerly. I cant't remember long time ago ago. He was credit with something like getting 3 turnovers.

I don't see that ever happening again though. Losing team member as MVP, unless a he puts up just ridiculous numbers.

 

[silverpig]

Going in I figured that the Giants' defense was about equal to the Pats' offense on their best days. IMO it basically fell to Eli to win or lose the game. Up until that last drive I thought he played well, but didn't do enough to win the game.

That last drive was great though, especially the head catch

A well-deserved win for sure.

Tyson lost to several guys. some no namers at end of his career.

But I'm guessing you're thinking of Buster Douglas.

 

[Deeko]

God, I'm conflicted.

I obviously didn't want the Patriots to win. Who did? So to a point, I'm glad they lost.

However, Eli Manning winning the Superbowl disgusts me. It's a cool story that the Manning brothers won back to back Superbowls, but come on. I hate Eli. Everyone else should too.

Which is another thing. Sure, they orchestrated an impressive drive at the end. That said, Eli played BAD football for 58 minutes. The MVP should have been someone from the defensive line, that kept the Patriots to 14 poitns. Not Eli. He was far from the MVP of that game.

Anyway, I knew I wouldn't be happy with the result no matter who won, and I was correct. Go Tony Romo!

Yeah, that was brilliant. I thought Manning was going down for sure. When he broke out and threw the pass everyone at the party was jumping up and screaming...and then then Tyree made the catch, MAN!

Yea I understand how most view the idea that one play can seemingly make you the 'mvp'. So what happens if Plax drops the pass? What happens if Manning hands that ball off and Jacobs scores the winning touchdown? Then Jacobs is the MVP?

Welker did more than any single player on that field. Did he receive the glory? Of course not, but he was the most productive player on the field. I understand you can't give the MVP to a losing player, that just doesn't make sense.

If Tynes scored the winning field goal with 2 seconds to go, he would have the MVP. There was clearly no player that was 'most valueable' in the entire game, except the person who scored the winning point. So why isn't Plax the MVP? Is it only because the media feels obligated to suck Eli's balls?

Eli played like shit. Everyone knows it but no one will say it.
