    As a long suffering Giants' fan (I was 17 before they made the playoffs in my lifetime) this postseason has been insanely fun. It's kind of like meeting a really pretty girl, who's way out of your league, who then asks you out — and on the second date she tells you she has an even prettier girlfriend and they both want to have a "sleepover" with you. You know it can't last — her eyesight or sanity will return and you will end up going back to your normal life.

    But when you have a run like this, you have to go with it.:D

    Well, too bad for Brett. And jeez, of all the games you don't want to go to OT- how about the third coldest in league history?!?! Brrr! Made me feel frozen just watching, and I thought Tom Coughlin's cheeks were going to turn black and slough off.

    Well, it's nice for Tom Coughlin that he gets to go to the big game, finally, but the Giants better bring their A-game because there is the smell of destiny about the Pats this years, like it or not. I don't really care who wins, but it would be nice to see the '72 Dolphins crying in their beer.

    I guess as players go, I'd have to root for the Pats. Brady is the supermodel impregnator, Junior Seau is a USC grad, and I've always thought Bruschi was pretty cool. How can you not be cool with a name like Bruschi? (Brew-ski! :drunkfriends:) Even Randy Moss has been behaving himself this year. Go figure.

    Yep, a rematch of one of the most exciting regular season games I've seen in years.

    Yep, and there's more:

    And this:
    http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2008/football/nfl/02/13/specter.goodell.ap/index.html
    So there's confirmed cheating every season for seven straight years - which includes three super bowl victories and an almost perfect season.

    I don't think specter remotely has the votes for that empty threat.

    Seriously, I honestly don't remember ever hearing or seeing Willie Gary's name before. Apparently he played in seven games for the Rams in 2001. OK, if you say so . . . :shrug:

    Well, the big one to me seems to be the fact that Matt Walsh claims to have the walkthrough tapes for the first Super Bowl. And if he's looking for immunity from prosecution for having them, it probably means that it has 'Property of the New England Patriots' written on it....
