2007 - Superbowl

Well,

I think its obvious what has happened here. I, like many others, have eaten some serious crow....hardcore crow. I have egg all over my face....its stuck in my hair, its hanging from my eyelashes, egg is literally in my nose holes...

(Great timing by the way Elens....you really timed it out perfectly to make sure I felt the deepest burn of regret for my words.) Son of a bitch.

So... that was quite the opposite of a lackluster game as my pre-superbowl e-mail sarcastically suggested it would be.

In fact, I thought it was one of the most engaging SUPERBOWLS that I have seen in a while. No doubt, the Giants came to play....and the Pats simply felt like they had already won the game....that there was no way that they could lose. It was the very definition of a 'trap game'. I think a lot of people were wrong about what was going to happen....and I was no different....

It's got to feel good to be a giants fan right now tho...seriously...having nearly the whole country eating their words.

I have to be clear though...this was no fluke....the giants deserve a lot of credit...they really played well.

It wasnt only the fact that the Patriots DIDNT play well. And thats the other thing....the Pats not playing well cant take anything away from the giants, because the pats played well....just not as well as they are used to, or as well as everyone expected them to.

It was just a good close game...and was a lot of fun to watch.

One thing that I definitely have to take back is my distaste for Eli.

Dont get me wrong...I definitely dont like the guy...but he played well....considering he is Eli Manning.

I just didnt see any pompousity in him during the game like I usually do...the pompous-like attitude that makes me hate him so much.

It was weird, it was non-existent...and at certain points I found myself rooting for him??? I know...I hate me. I think a lot of my hatred for him was rooted in the sort of silver spoon way in which he seemingly became a starting quarterback...mostly through (what I assumed was) the weight of his last name and the success of his brother.

It seems obvious to me now, that I was a little mislead in my perception of the matter. There is talent and leadership there to back up and reinforce his legitimacy as a starter...no doubt about that. He has, in fact, one upped his brother big time...leading his team to a superbowl win long before Peyton did in his career....ouchy.

I dont mind that the giants won the game...I didnt prefer one team over the other....

What I DONT like about the result is that I still have to hear about the '72 Dolphins for the rest of time....and YES...I would have rather heard about the Patriots for all of time...FUCK!!!

Those dolphins need to fucking climb into their graves and stay there. Pissing me off with all the fucking attention they get...THEY WERE SHITTY!! THE SUPERBOWL IN WHICH THEY ACHEIVED THEIR FLAWLESS SEASON SUCKED!! THEY SUCKED IN IT!! thats right...I said it. The game that gave them their little claim to fame....it was the shittiest game in football history (exception=every Raiders game)...so why all the glory?

All I wanted was for the Pats to piss all over their flawless season...but no...someone who I previously sarcastically proclaimed a courageous hero (Eli)...decided it was a good time to actually resemble one, and fucking ruined my "ooo/ahhh" feeling that I would have gotten from knowing that Dan Marino was crying in the fetal position with the rest of his gay ass old fucking team.

Way to make me look like an asshole Eli...thanks for that. DAMNIT ELI!! DAMN YOUR SOUTHERN ACCENT! DAMN YOUR FUCKING RICH ASS FAMILY!!! DAMN YOUR FUCKING DIAMOND ENCRUSTED RING FINGER!!! AND DAMN YOUR STUPID STUPID NAME!!....who fucking names their kid ELI...What bastard parents...seriously. Sounds like the name for a pet donkey or something....or a cactus...

His poor wife or girlfriend probably has to struggle not to laugh everytime she has to say his name..."I love you Eli." "do you want some breakfast Eli?" "You lied in that e-mail you sent me Eli; why would you e-lie....Eli?" haha...wow...ive gone too far...

It only sounds good when said like a southern drunk bumbling idiot. "EEELLLLIIII! Get on thhhaatt horse and riiiiide like the weeeeiiiiind!"

Its similar to names like "Ike" or "Wyatt" or "Dallas".....where they only sound good for pornstars or drunks in kentucky. thats it.

Porno film names aside...It is important to me to admit that I was wrong. Although Eli has a shitty name...and almost looks as retarded as his brother does...He showed up....and Brady didnt...certainly not as much as he could have....or as much one might imagine he usually would.

But I think that there was a more significant side of the game....NYG Defense. What a pleasure to watch.

As infrequent as a Brady beating is...it was kind of cool to see....just for the rarety of it. He was getting smashed...and I am certain that some of those hits affected some of his ability to play. Some of those long balls at the end...may have been long enough had he not been getting crushed by the relentless front line. Brady can throw that long ball as good as anyone...the only reason he couldnt get it done last night was because he was probably gassed...and he was getting shat on all night.

The only huge gap the pat offense didnt want to see was the one in between Strahan's front teeth...too bad...I think it was all smiles from Strahan...his D was killing it.

Soo...to sum up....I'm an asshole....my sarcasm and smart ass attitude has once again fucked me in the ass....I'd like to acknowledge the irony and put it behind me....

Additionally, good effort by the NYG...my apologies to Eli for making him out to be a shit covered desert fungus. His name is still gay though.

Also, alas...the patriots....karma is a bitch.....and i also hold you accountable for making me look like a fucking dimwit.

So...lesson learned...dont "cheat"....dont be overly cocky....and for christ sake...have some class Bilichek... and let the game end before walking off the field....

What a little fucker....I was laughing with hilarity the entire time that there was still a second on the clock....ahhhh haha....hilarious. Sorry about your season....sucks....a lot.....like a hoover....it sucks....i feel for you......

And finally....

goodbye to football....I feel like I was far too excited for this season to come....and when it finally did....it was gone before I knew it. ...

Probably helped by the Bears being a disappointment.... Ahh well....time to hate tv until next season.

reluctantly eating crow...
