Giants vs. Patriots in Super Bowl XLII. Really? Is that the best we can do? I am a huge NFL fan. I love the sport, the competition, the parity. But this Super Bowl has all the makings of a dog. Yes, the Giants played the Pats tough for 3 quarters in Week 17, but come on. Plus, does anyone believe Eli Manning will be a Super Bowl winning quarterback? The Patriots and their hobo-robo jerk of a coach will gameplan for them and win this game handily. By the time Tom Petty takes the stage at half time, it will be over (and I'm not one for halftime shows, but is Tom Petty really Super Bowl halftime worthy?). Glad we usually play poker at the Super Bowl party I go to, as we'll be shuffling the deck early and let the women watch the commercials and then eventually relinquish the remote altogether so they can find something on HGTV or Lifetime.
