19-....ummm 18-1 is good, I guess?


The descent into Bizzaro World continued yesterday as Super Bowl MVP Eli Manning led the Giants to a 17-14 victory over the hated Patriots. Super Bowl MVP Eli Manning. That is just hard to get used to.

The Evil Belichick Empire has been defeated, and in a manner similar to the way they clawed to power. By determination, luck, and a little bit of talent, the Giants beat them on a long drive capped off by an improbable score. I sat in amazement when Tyree made that catch, a historic catch even if Manning hadn't escaped a certain sack to throw it to him.

All season, I was pretty confident the Patriots were going to lose. It took the last 35 seconds of the last game for it to happen, but it did. Never in a million years did I think Eli, who often looked like a slightly better Rex Grossman, would be the one to do it. Enjoy it Giants fans, you deserve it. And to you New England fans, I'm sure the sting will be alleviated once pitchers and catchers report to Red Sox camp.

Geez, the less Manning wins the Super Bowl against the inevitable Empire? What next, you're going to tell me that a black man and a woman are the leading candidates for the Democratic nomination? Yeah, like that'll ever happen.
