First off sorry for the long wait everyone, I have been busy doing the school thing and I have so many things to write about on here such as the Super Bowl, Duke-UNC, Shaq/Gasol Trades, Signing Day, and Arlen Spector.
How great was the Super Bowl? No one saw this coming unless you were a diehard Giant fan who knew their Giants could win this thing. The one team we all hated two weeks ago now they are consider saving us from the Evil Empire of Football known as the New England Patriots. Just some thoughts about the Super Bowl
- The offensive line for the Patriots just could not handle the pressure of the Giants which was unreal because they have a couple All-Pros and Brady has had all the time in the world this year. As Strahan says, "THEY STOMP THEM OUT". Brady was just getting drilled all the time and for the first time in a long while, he was rattled.
-Tom Brady's ankle should not be an excuse for why Brady was not able to scramble or move around in the pocket. McNabb was throwing up and struggling with the flu yet everyone dismissed that excuse so I will do the same.
-Eli Manning is out of the shadows of all of the bust quarterbacks that have been drafted in the top ten who have just been awful. My dad said he thought "Eli needed a change of teams" before the playoffs started. He was definetly off about that one yet Eli has also proven another thing... The man is clutch. They have won 6 games in the fourth quarter and he just acts like nothing in the world phases him.
-Plaxico Burress is a straight up baller and I think he is a complete jackass when he puts on an act for a frickin 10 yard out route yet he was wounded throughout the entire year with all sorts of injuries then slips in the shower on Tuesday where the Giants training staff thought he torn his MCL and he still played!
-David Tyree picked the biggest stage for his key moment this year as he did nothing througout the regular season yet caught a touchdown then makes the most incredible catch in the Super Bowl. My buddy, Shay reminded me via text that he went to Syracuse which leads to me to believe that Gerry McNamera will end up on a NBA team to hit the game-winner to send a team to the finals.
-I dont think I have to go over how Billy Boy was classless for leaving the field with a second left, he is a prick we all know this. A lot of good coaches are assholes and they win ball games, if that was me I would be rattled before belief and I am sure Bill felt like crying.
-Credits goes to my friends Steve and Pat who both thought the Giants would go to the Super Bowl, now Pat deserves more because he thought they would win it all. I actually have to cook Steve up a steak for the Giants making it, no big deal for how good this victory felt.
-The Patriots lost because of a couple things but one of the main reasons was they were overconfident. They pattened 19-0 before they won anything, the Boston mayor already had the parade ready, and then all of that went haywire putting all of New England on suicide watch.
-I am happy that the people of Boston have no one to blame this one on either just pure choke, drink it in.
