I was pretty glad that the Giants won. I really don't like them normally but in comparison to the Patriots...

I can't stand Tom Brady. I think he's scum. So him getting humiliated was a nice thing. And Bill Belachik... ugh. The fact that he left the field before all the time ran off the clock really says a lot about him. I really have no respect for their organization or their top people. So yay Giants! I can go back to disliking them tomorrow

I believe they were the first NFC wildcard team to win the superbowl also?

=and=

Not only did the 2 bothers have back to back Superbowl wins, but they got the MVP titles also!

I knew the game was going to be awesome when Tom Brady kept screwing up. I watched the game with my church and it was so fun. When the Giants made the game winning touchdown, everyone lost it.

Since the Wild-Card System began in 1970, only nine wild-card teams have advanced all the way to the Super Bowl. Of those, only five won the Super Bowl, the 5 Super Bowl winning wild card teams being the 1980 Oakland Raiders, the 1997 Denver Broncos, the 2000 Baltimore Ravens, the 2005 Pittsburgh Steelers and the 2007 Giants.

I thought that was pretty classless, too.

I wasn't emotionally invested in either team -- actually I lost interest in the entire NFL early this year.

All the same, the last few minutes rescued a fairly mundane game.

the commercials were pretty good this year. my favorite was the doritos commercial. seeing the mouse bust out of the hole was priceless.

myspace has all of the commercials. im sure someone will post the link.

Yeah, definitely talking baby commercials (e-trade I think) were funny. But overall, not as many funny ones as usual. Tom Petty was good as ever (I've seen him live twice). I didn't really care about either team either (Redskins fan) but during the game I was rooting for the Patriots simply for history sake. BUT, now that I think about it, I like Bridget Moynahan and the coach leaving the field was pretty crappy also (guess he figured he did his thing before those last two seconds ran out?). So, I say, congrats to the Giants!

My son was very excited that the Giants won. I think mainly because he won $19 for picking the square that had the final score on it.
