Who are you, Al Bundy? Please, tell us about your glory days of High School football.

Honestly, there were two plays on that drive that should have ended the game - Manning somehow making it out of a sea of Pats (dumb luck) and connecting on that absurd pass (bit of luck, but you have to ackgnowledge the skill there), and then that interception that we almost came up with just before (dumb luck - we were SO close to coming up with that, another half inch and that was the game).

I won't deny we played poorly all night (and what was up with Brady? he was off all night, and his color was way off, he was kind of yellow by the end of the game. We were speculating jaundice, it was so bad...), and that the Giants D deserves everything that was said about them, but there's also no denying that the Giants got two VERY lucky breaks there.

What a game. I was very surprised by Eli Manning and the NY Giants. You know, in a way, I was kinda glad the Giants took it. They had this stragedy to attack Tom Brady it seemed. I will always be a Seattle Seahawks fan but I really like the Patriots as well because, well, everyone I know here, likes them, but I didn't mind seeing them lose.

If you truly want to know my football past, PM me, I'll tell you.

What I'm saying is that it bothers me when all people want to see is a high scoring game because that's the only place they find the action. Having been a player, I see the game from a different perspective. I've been in the underdog position beating a team that was "unstoppable;" The adrenaline rush is un-fucking-believable. I've been on a team that was supposedly "unstoppable" and losing on a 4th and long; The frustration is phenomenal. The feelings of each are impossible to put into words.

I feel sorry for those who can't relate.

Seriously though, I too found this game quite exciting.

I don't care about your football past dude. It's you saying "I guess you had to be an athlete". I played hockey through highschool and into college. I just don't plaster shirtless pics of myself everywhere and recap the glory days on the internet.
