Your goddam Superbowl 42Thread

so, biggest upset of all time in the NFL?

nah. Jets in Super Bowl 3 still owns that one.

but I think this has to be a close second.

The Patriots over the Rams in 2001 lingering not too far behind.

Nobody gave the Broncs a chance against the Packers (except me :))

Can't remember exactly what the spread was, but it was double digits.

That was the best Super Bowl I've ever seen. Four lead changes. Brady sacked five times (I've been saying it all year: The way to beat Tom Brady is to blitz like crazy!). The Tyree catch was the play of the year. Patriots do not go undefeated. And Tom Petty rocked the house did not play a medley.

fixed

booooo drunk html

was it? let me know if you find anything on what the line was exactly. I think 5 of those points had to be automatically assessed due to the fact that the NFC hadn't lost in about 17 years! :)

well I still have to give second to the Giants just cuz the Patsies were undefeated. the dropoff could have been significant in the perception had the lost just as much as one game in the regular season.

DUDE. THE PATRIOTS LOST.

THE SUPER BOWL.

DO YOU SEE.

THE PATRIOTS WERE NOT UNDEFEATED

THEY LOST.

TO THE MANNING BROTHER THAT DOESNT LIKE FOOTBALL

had the lost just as much as one game in the regular season.

Besides, man, I don't need the reminder, I've been celebrating their loss for the last 3 hours...:)

finishing off my last guiness right now

ogod that was so good

I really wis hI didn't have to go to work tomorrow I'd keep drinking.

YOU CAN NOT PUT THE TEAM THAT WON THE SUPER BOWLZ IN SECOND PLACE.

I didn't.

I said in terms of greatest upsets of all time, this one is in second place behind the New York Jets defeating the Baltimore Colts in Super Bowl 3.

well I still have to give second to the Giants just cuz the Patsies were undefeated.

^^^^^^^^^ WHAT THE FUCK DOES THIS SENTENCE SAY

I see why what I said was confusing...

When I said I gave the Giants second place because the Patriots were undefeated, that was to the gentleman that included the Packers-Patriots game as an entry for one of the biggest super Bowl upsets of all time. My response was saying to him that I still considered the Giants' upset the second best because the team they beat was undefeated.

guys its one thing to pick the giants - but to predict the pats only score 20 points - krazy

seriously, read my post after reading the one above it.

lol omar.

he's probably gone for months xpost! :)

srsly pats gonna pwn eli so hard today

I STAND BY MY SLANDER AND LOOK FORWARD TO YOUR BANNING TOMORROW

all i have to say

LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL

ya if you replayed that super bowl 10 times I guarantee you THE PATRIOTS WOULD WEURIENA ALL 10 TIMES OMGOMGOMGOM

its a complete fluke the giants made it this far. if the playoff were run 10 more times i doubt theyd make it to the superbowl once. and theyre abt to get so fucking demolished.

see, dan esk, i don't think just b/c a game is close it's necessarily a good game. i factored those games you mentioned into my assessment and i feel like those were just close games, but this was a genuinely taut, well-played game.

This one was the best BECAUSE THE PATRIOTS LOST.

this shit will not be close this shit will not be close this shit will not be close this shit will not be close this shit will not be close this shit will not be close this shit will not be close this shit will not be close this shit will not be close this shit will not be close this shit will not be close OMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM OMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM

ahahahha...

the reasons this game was so good:

1. The Patriots lost at the hands of ANOTHER Manning in the playoffs.
2. Very little laundry on the field during the game.
3. Little to no controversy.
4. Strong defensive play as opposed to offensive ineptitude (cough Steelers-Seahawks super bowl)
5. Both teams trading tds within the last 2:42.
6. 85 yard game winning TD drive.
7. Fuck Terrell Owens. Tyree="The Catch, II". Who cares if they ain't the 49ers, and it wasn't a touchdown pass. Without it, there is no td pass later.
8. Compared to the humongous fanfare preceding the game, this was just a classic, non-pretentious football game with little histrionics until the very end, where they belonged.

lol forks my party has rock band pregame

hope you played some afterwards too...

recommended setlist should include

Rolling Stones--Out of Tears
Third Eye Blind--Losing a Whole Year
Doobie Brothers--What a Fool Believes

i didn't see the game, did the pats lose or did the giants win? i also have fucked up my life in a total and severe way to the point where i no longer care about football.

those are the times when i care abt football the most, kev~

lol at the bjo was right parade

im not gonna lie i thought all of peter king etc.'s "justin tuck will be mvp" talk was on some bullshit but hats off

also thought peyton reaction shots were great :/

those are the times when i care abt football the most, kev~

Yeah, me too. I hope this year's better than the last one. 2004 sucked but the Pats came through that time

i wasn't right about nothin other than the fact that it wasn't a blowout.

still entertaining to see jhoshea's quotes later though.

I still want to figure out, well, what happened with this team toward the end of the season. did they get burned out? pressure of keeping that perfect record? they looked pretty bad against San Diego and I wondered what was wrong with Brady and the rest of the offense then. heard during a brief halftime interview with Belichick that he was pretty much saying the defense would have to win it..

I turned off my cell this afternoon and fear turning it back on to read all these txts from the schef

Added Patriots wide receiver Randy Moss: "I think their intensity from the beginning snap to the end of the game was really higher than ours. We just couldn't meet that intensity."

Yeah, me too. I hope this year's better than the last one. 2004 sucked but the Pats came through that time

;_;
