Giants Win. Next Stop; Phoniex, AZ

For all the people that counted the BIG BLUE out, here is to you.

. As for the believers, here is to you.

All in all, it has been a great season for both of these teams. The

started out on a losing streak while the

have done nothing but win. The GIANTS were flying high last night and we finally got to see Eli do What Peyton has done so many times.

No, lets get to the case at hand. Before we get started, just so you know, this is a bias opinion and I do not care if you agree with it our not, it is mine, so there.

Giants are a team of destiny and will march into Arizona and play the Patriots to the best of the ability. I for one, think that will spell a win for the

So, um let me get this straight you are cheering for the Giants, right?

Danny - I love this post!

Danny boy, you heading out to Glendale for the festivities? Let me know if you do. Only 30 minutes from my house.

Uh, thanks for asking that Linda, I wasn't quite sure if Danny was rooting for the Giants or the Patriots.... :)

Up here in Ontario we don't know who to choose........ya Patriots!!!!!!

Linda,

and hear is one of these.

Jim, it is time to go all the way.

I was soo excited at the game... a litle stressed, a little nervous... you see I am a Bear fan and just can't stand the Cheese Heads (more likely their rude fans)

But I got my revenge this morning... all those obnoxious emails that I got from them on how "great they were" and how bad the Bears were this season were all sent back with comments to them... and the last I checked we beat them twice

GO GIANTS...GO GIANTS...

Paul, can I sleep on the couch????

Debbie, here is one for you too...

John, OMG......

Brian, shout it out....

Danny ~ I was looking for this from you this morning - what took you so long?! ; ) It was a great game to watch! Can't wait for Superbowl!

BTW, I like your new smiley "toy".

Playing keep away from me is not nice. Not nice at all.

All yours, Danny. Be prepared for the 5 AM wakeup call from my kid, though.

I love that the kicker got to be a hero after his misses. And I like Eli. BUT..........

Kathy, I was going to wait till tomorrow, then in my best REDNECK voice I said, "ferget it, I em writing mine tonite." Here is a great big for all the faithful BIG BLUE fans.

Linda,

. I can't wait. lol.

Dang it I need a tackle smiley

Elaine, all I can say is

Linda,

As I commented in Jim Ludes blog about the Superbowl...I am a HUGE COLTS FAN!

I am also an Ole Miss graduate so of course I am pulling for the Giants! Eli has been money and it is going to take a Manning to stop Brady and Co.

Rich, I am shocked. You left it for the Brady Bunch and did not even use it....

Hey Danny, Congratulations on a great Victory. The Giants have really peaked escpecially after the loss to the Pats in week 17.

The Super Bowl wil be fun. Two weeks and I can't wait. Wish we were going but I don't mind watching it on the TV. either.

Jay, as much fun as it would be to go, for the price of one beer there I can have 6 here.

They still sell red white and blue beer down there? Pabst Blue Ribbon?

GO GIANTS!!

Jay, if I was drinking Pabst, I could buy a case for what a beer cost at the game.

Marc, I am with you on that one.

Danny....you'll not believe it with the amount of trash I talked about your boys (my "LOCK" to lose to Tampa, etc.).....but I'm behind them all the way. Usually go for the AFC all the way- unless it's Raiders or Chargers, but this time I think Eli and Co. get me as a 2-week bandwagoner.

To all the Gaints fans congrats, now finish it!

Jim, we accept all.

David, that we plan on doing. Here is to the GIANT nation.

This should be a great game. The Giants certainly didn't go down easy the last time and I like the whole rematch angle. Funny how Boston and New York always end up tangling.

Go Pats!!

Well,I am not gonna get in the middle of all this...my allegiance is well known...2 weeks in between is just too long....Congrats to the Giants and their fans....I am sure it will be a great game!

Jim, it would take hell and highwater to keep Tom away.

Martin, it will truly be a good game.

Rick, LOL. What I appreciate is allegiances. You have to admit, ELI has silenced a lot of his critics so far.

So who do you want to win again?!? LOL - Just kidding. I won't tell you that I like the Patriots....

Danny, I will also be cheering for the Giants by virtue of the fact I dislike the Patriots. I think their pass rush and their week 17 matchup will give them a nice advantage. And Eli has been playing lights-out (no INTs all postseason???), so it should be a good game!

Incidentally, do I see you wearing FSU gear in your profile picture? If so, how did you come to like the Giants in NY and the Noles in FL?

Christopher Zabka, Zolve.com

The one way he can really silence his critics is beat the Pats in 2 weeks....I am still not big on Eli...but they did somehow get to the dance in spite of that bad start to the season.

James, and I will not hold it against you.

Christopher, I am a Seminole and have been outed. With that said, I started watching Giants football years ago and never quit.

Rick, you are correct.

One thing we all must remember is that the Brady and Moss were gunning for records in week 17. They also won on the road. The Pats are great at taking away the other teams strength.

Look for this game to be completely different than that of week 17. I see the Pats utilizig Maroney more with three tight ends in for blocking and then that wil open up the ariel attack.

Shutting down Burress will be an interesting feat in itself.

Jay, shutting down Brandon Jacobs will be a feat too.

He can have his 67 yards.

Jacobs is averaging 56 yards on 16 carries the last 4 games...3.5 ypc probably isn't scaring Richard Seymour and Wilfork. I think Ahmad Bradshaw poses more of a challenge and that's ALL contingent on Eli getting it to Plax (which they should and will) and Toomer catching the ball...

And do not leave out Smith.

Don't forget this is the NFC too. LOL

Congratulations to your Big Blue making it to the Super Bowl. I was one that thought the Packers would beat them...it wasn't a pretty game, but they did it!

Now we just get to sit around on pins and needles for the next 2 weeks!

Loved the smileys!

Jay, be nice.

Cris, he is one for you.

Yeah, I'd hate to have to eat those words that's for sure.

Yeah, cause I am already going to have to do that.

Tom Brady walking to his gf's apt with a walking cast on his right foot. Any real info on the foot, he Brady really hurt? He sure did not look like himself Sunday.

David, Letterman has been tearing this up this whole week.

DH- reports are a mild high ankle sprain.

Jim, I hope he is at 100%. I would hate for someone to use that as an excuse if they lose.

I agree 100% Danny. You never want to cheapen a win.

Jim, right one. See, we can agree. LOL

stranger things DO happen, ya know! I think we agree more than we disagree.....just not as strongly!

Brady, has a mild high ankle sparain. Remember he also had a sprain when they won their first SB back in '01.

Jim you are correct.

Jay, you are correct. If he would quit chasing women, then he would not get these injuries.

Danny be nice.

Jay, that was me being nice.

True

Danny; This was an incredible post! I am SOOOOOOOO rooting for the Giants - PLEASE GO GIANTS...we in Indy would love nothing better then to see the Pats Loose how wonderful it would be to see them got undefeated all the way until the BIG Game..And at least another Manning made it to the Super-Bowl..Even better how about another Manning to beat Brady and the Pats... GO GIANTS!
