Said here earlier today:
If the Giants play the best game possible, get a few calls and a few Patriot mistakes, they’ll beat the point spread. I want them to win desperately, but reality tells me if they played the game 10 times, the Pats win at least 9.

Apparently they played the 1 outa 10 today.
Being dead wrong has never been so satisfying!
Eli Manning is a Super Bowl MVP!
I couldn’t be happier for both the Giants and Eli Manning. The kid has done nothing but eat everyone’s BS since he came into the league. He been a class act the whole time, and now all the BS shovelers are being served a seven course meal off their own evil menu. Life is good.
This also bodes very well for the Chargers, as they can now see clearly what was in their grasp had they been anywhere near healthy a couple weeks ago. Again there’s no crying over spilt milk, but this Giants victory should put a bee the size of a B-52 inside the Chargers’ bonnet.
For those in Texas who wish to gloat over today’s prediction,
(90% of which was correct, by the way.) I have just one thought.
At least the Chargers and Packers actually got into their conference’s championship games. The Chargers did it by beating the DEFENDING champs ON THE ROAD. Maybe next year one of the Texas teams can figure out how to win a playoff game at HOME for Heaven’s sake, against a team they’d already beaten twice this year.
But I digress.
Congrats to a class guy and a class team — Eli Manning and the NY Giants.
How ’bout this for next year’s Super Bowl match up?
Cowboys vs Chargers And remember — you heard it here first.

[...] Dear Jeff Brown takes football more seriously than I do, which honestly isn’t hard as I generally prefer to have the TV blaring Hannah Montana re-runs pacifying the kids than football. The Patriots play somewhere in New England and I guess are my default team and have been romping along undefeated all year. Which after all those Brazilian national soccer teams that were a complete lock on winning the World Cup, and all those New Zealand All Black teams that were a complete lock on winning the Rugby World Cup, I instinctively know that New England essentially had no hope of winning the Superbowl.
