OK, I’m not the greatest sports fan in the world, but does anybody disagree that this was the biggest upset in Super Bowl history? Granted, Eli did not go on “The Tonight Show” and correctly predict the victory the way Joe Namath did. But the Giants prevented the Patriots from having only the second perfect record in NFL history. The 1972 record is still good, Mr. Shula.
And it was back-to-back Manning victories — that’s the real story. Gonna be a heck of a Thanksgiving dinner at Archie’s house.
For a change, the game was more interesting than the commercials.

It wasn’t the Manning I’d hoped for, but I’ll take it!!

Another summer of Manning commercials coming up!

As a product of the UNITAS era, it was nice to see an underdog come thriough with the goods…especially in the final minutes.
Reminds me of the “good old days”!
