The Super Bowl XLII thread

[LA Guy]

I'm disappointed that the Pats lost, but the Giants did a great job, and deserved to win. The Giants front four had TB's number all night long, and Eli Manning proved that as someone who is not a great scrambler, he can scramble and come up with great plays in tight situations.

On the other note...

You'd think that the Senate has better things to discuss than the use of steroids in professional sports and illegal videotaping of things unrelated to Rodney King - you know, things like Health care and the subprime mortgage situation.

The conspiracy theorists will note that Arlen Spector is the senator from Comcast, which just happens to be involved in a dispute right now with the NFL Network over broadcast rights.

Nah, that's just a coinky-dink.

On one hand I agree. On another, they are less prone to raise taxes or over-regulate focusing on these silly matters so maybe its a good thing.

Thats sort of the point. It's really not that bad, assuming someone tells you how to decipher the signals.

But deciphering the signals on the fly without knowing the key, in a matter of minutes as is the charge against the Pats, is next to impossible. It's mostly just jealousy, and needing to find an excuse for hard work and great coaching. (when your team comes up short)...

I'm obviously not even a Pats fan, but all the teams they beat this year, they beat on hard work, focus, a superior game plan, and luck. The one team they lost to, just played a better game.

Best part of the Super Bowl:

Seeing JT get it handed to him all around the city! That was a great ad. Do any of you dislike him as much as I do? Did you get a rouse out of it?

here it is if you missed it:
