"The answer was in the Patriots eyes. Gone were the swagger and c0ck sure smirks, replaced by downcast eyes and heads in hands. For his poise and leadership Eli Manning was named the game's MVP. The 2007 Giants were never perfect nor meant to be. They were fighters, scrappers....now they could be called something else, World Champions."

<< <i>Lets not jump the wagon here like this is going to be a piece of pie. The Giants have lots of preparation to do going against a team like the Pats. If I were head coach of the Giants I'd make everyone re-watch the tape of the last time the Giants played the Pats to really get a feel of how they play and what to improve on. I love my Giants but since the Pats make virtually no flaws on the field we have to play our BEST football. But I am a believer till the very end, GO GIANTS! >>
You can bet that the Pats are doing a lot of preparation as well, no way are they kicking back and saying this game is in the bag.
The players and coaching staff are watching a ton of game film and will be practicing hard I am sure.

<< <i>How about these (my picks for biggest upsets in each respective sport):
MLB: 1954 Giants sweep 111 win Indians in WS
NFL: 1968 Jets over Colts in Super Bowl III
NBA: 2007 Warriors
NCAA basketball: 1982 Chaminade over Virginia
NCAA football: 1985 Oregon State (I didn't want to include any from last year as the idea is to pick the greatest ALL-TIME)
Hockey: 1980 USA over USSR (biggest upset in ANY sport) >>
This actually isn't true. The 'Miracle on Ice' was, obviously, a huge upset, and when you put the event in a social context it might be the most important upset of all time, but from a probability standpoint it wasn't as stunning as Chaminade over Virginia, or even as Syracuse over Louisville in NCAAF this year ('cuse was +35 1/2).
in the dictionary and you will see a picture of the Russian hockey team being led off to the salt mines!

Thank god the upset didn't happen in the late 40s - if it had we would have marched that hockey team in a line and executed them after we tortured them

If the Giants are Midgets the Cowboys are Head Lice, after all they did whip their Brokeback arses didn't they?
