Sure, I’m a Giants fan and I would have preferred to see them in the big game, but I don’t think that any honest football fan can honestly say that the two best teams in the league are playing in the SuperBowl this year.

The Giants, Titans, and Eagles are all better teams. Hell, the Cowboys and Patriots are better teams and they both make me sick! That said, I’m looking for the Steelers to make a mockery out of the Cardinals and send them back to Arizona in no time at all. In truth, it’ll be interesting to see how the NFL will play the Roethlisberger vs. Warner match up. That said, I’m sure I’m not alone when I say that I’m really not that interested in the match-up.

For those of you who are attending a party or SuperBowl gathering tonight, remember to be safe on the roads and don’t be stupid by drinking and driving. Other than that, enjoy the night!

I was busy for the first few minutes of the first quarter, but I can’t remember watching a game that was so thrilling and kept me on the edge of my seat since last year’s playoffs.

Derrick Ward was an all-star as he led the team rushing with 215 yards. The victory brings the Giants to 12 – 3 and positions them at the top of the NFC. This means that they get home field advantage in the playoffs and a first round bye. The Giants need to play more like they did in the last half of the game last night if they want to make it to the SuperBowl and I think the home field advantage will give them the extra umph that they need to go back to the big game.
