Post by: Innes on January 22, 2008, 12:43:35 AM
Who’s rooting for who in the super bowl
I can’t believe how my Giants are playing and Eli is ON. I’m suppose to go to my brothers for the super-bowl but I thinking about staying home and sitting where I’ve been sitting w/my legs over the couch they playing good like that. LOL.
Advice to all Giants fans going to the game don’t where a giants jersey and root for the pats the giants play better that way.

I'm a die-hard Pats fan, so that won't be me ;)

I was just surprised we weren't playing the fudge-Packers.


They may be Giants... ;)

I am a Die-Hard Pats fan too and your Neighbor to the west :] (VT)

It's funny because as far as the NFC goes I usually go for the Giants! But the Pats are my home team and my only team!

This is a tough call...I'm a Jet's fan so...while it would be nice for the New York team to win I am also so sick of hearing about the 1972 Dolphins.  If the Giants win than it will be argued that they ('72 Dolphins) have done something no one else can.  For New England to lose atthe big dance would be a crushing blow to them and to what they have accomplished so far.  That being said the pressure's on them.  The Giants, on the other hand, don't have the weight of expectation upon them.

The Giants didn't win their game, Green Bay lost it. There's no way New England is going to allow THREE unanswered field goal attempts for them to finally win.

Patriots by 21 at least. 19-0.

Where they're playing, the winds won't factor in to field goal attempts.

The 20 yards worth of penalties on the Giants drive early in the 3rd did not help Green Bay at all.

OK, the defense also won't just lay over for an entire half, Brady won't throw 2 interceptions, and the corner won't let Plaxico school him every single play.

The Patriots already schooled the Giants, they will be doing it again.

When I said it was a tough call I meant who I would root for...My logic tells me the Pats will take it.

Point spread is 12 right now.....That's a tough one....If it were 21 I'd take Blue...12? as a betting man?  Hmmm....

V8Demon is 100% correct, NY has no pressure on them at all. The Pats have already won games in a season than any team in history (Dolphins were 17-0 and the Pats are currently 18-0), but if they lose the SB, it's all meaningless. Could be a good game....

I'm certainly not discounting the Giants - they played their asses off last time in a game where they did not have to win. I expect them to be real tough in the 1st half. 2nd half, we'll see.

Brady's leg is in a cast. How does that change the odds?

Minor Sprain not a big deal.

Even if Brady did not play at all I would not be worried. The Pats have an All-Star team.

Paul!!! Please tell me you didn’t vote for the pats. Though I’m a giants fan I do root for the jets. I think I watch them more due to the fact my father-in-law is a huge jets fan. And I remember Rob Moore always in our HS, SOB gave couch krum the idea of doing 300 yard sprints.
This is football not a Yankees Mets thing or a Rangers-Islanders thing. where aloud to like both teams.

According to the poll most want to see history ant not root for the underdog.

I didn't vote and I won't.  I'm kinda torn on this one due to my absolute disgust for the Dolphins.
