One of the most improbable post-season runs I can recall concluded with a defeat of the perfect 18-0 New England Patriots 17-14 in Super Bowl XLII. The defense was again spectacular, but the offense really carried the day with that late 4th-quarter drive that began with only 2:35 on the game clock.
Perfection is so unattainable…

This disappointed Pats fan says congrats to the Giants. Well played lads, well played!

It is strange how 18-1 can feel like shit. Imagine how the the players feel.

Well, as a Texas Tech fan, I wanted New England to win for the Wes Welker connection…but you know, the Giants have been playing really, really well down the stretch…

Mark, as a Michigan fan, I wanted Brady to put on another ring. But the Giants’ defense was unreal and it was one of the best Super Bowls I have ever seen. Congrats, Giants.

Giants defense won the day. Brady was taking beatings left and right.

After the game they played, New York deserved this win.

After NY beat Dallas and my beloved Packers they had to take it all or their would have been cheesehead suicides at record levels. Now everyone who lost to NY is justified.
