The Giants did the unthinkable---they mussed Tom Brady's hair and wrecked the Patriots shot at joining the Dolphins as teams with a donut under the "L" at the end of the season.
In my personal opinion, this was the best "game" in Super Bowl history---I know there have been other nail-biters and down-to-the-wire finishes in SB history---however, due to the historical nature of the win (actually, the historical nature of the loss), the manner in which Eli Manning led the Giants downfield for the game-winning touchdown (complete with the greatest play in Super Bowl History---admit it) and the pure-football mode the Giants defense played in throughout, to me, makes it number one of the 42 games.
And could there be a more classless coach in professional sports than Bill Belichick... forget the ridiculous "costume" he wears (A hoodie? Indoors? In the desert?), the entirety of "Spygate," the alleged trysts, and the lack of respect for an opponent (win or lose, the guy is a jerk to the opposing teams-coaches)... his smarminess and worminess makes me root against any team he coaches.
Whew! I feel MUCH better with that off my chest.
