What can be said? The stage is set. Patriots fans have pretended they're not out for revenge and Giants fans have reassured everyone that they're not just happy to be here. I've got to be upfront and say that I fully acknowledge the overwhelming amount of good fortune that has shined down upon my team for the past month or so. I won't lie and say that they earned those wins as much as they came out on the other end the luckier group of men. I also won't easily forget about all those games that happened this season where the Giants just flat out didn't show up at all, getting run in by the Saints and losing dumb games to the Seahwaks and the Redskins, twice! But I won't concede that that is what actually makes this game so fun to watch. You never know on any given Sunday what will take place. Will Eli Manning make his mark upon the NFL and upset the greats again? Will Brady have the game of his life and single-handedly carry a team to a championship? Will each of the four Giants D-line put a sack on pretty boy? Will Gronkowski come out a wild man and break his ankle clean off by the 3rd quarter? Will Victor Cruz catch two touchdowns and surprise us all by performing a full-on choreographed waltz with the Giants special teams joining in? Will Vince Wilfork pick up Eli Manning and kick a field goal with him? Will the game be tied after 5 full quarters when Coughlin and Belichik choose to decide the game with a gentlemens duel on the 50 where they shoot each other simultaneously as the Lombardi trophy is absconded away by an overzealous Tim Tebow via helicopter? Will Ocho Cinco catch a ball?
These things can happen.
These things can happen.
All I do know is that we here will be glued and won't even relieve ourselves til halftime, because, well...
Good game!
