He'd stuck his aching foot in it this time, it seemed. Plaxico Burress had made that guarantee before he ever stepped on a plane to Arizona, and then this past week he could hardly walk without a limp, without more fluid accumulating on his knee and the tendon pulling from the bone.
Burress had not been much of a factor in this Super Bowl, had watched while David Tyree, Kevin Boss and even Amani Toomer made the biggest catches. He'd made exactly one catch for 14 yards. But now the Giants were 13 yards away from the goal line, from something truly amazing, and Burress was running a slant-and-go in the end zone. Continue
I am a Redskin fan, and I pulled for the NFC champion NY Giants in the Super Bowl. Throughout the season the Patriots run up the scores against numerous teams. To me they were too cocky and unprofessional. I’m so glad the Giants brought that team and their coach down to reality. Now if the Commissioner will do his job and look into all those allegations of “Spy Gate” and suspend those that are involved if it turns out that the Patriots cheat. I would hope that all the truth will come out so that ALL THE FANS can see it. No erasing of tapes; clear up this cloud in the NFL.

Congrats guys,
Truly deserving victory. I'm so happy that as a result of my Scottish backgorund, Lawrence TYNES became the first Scotsman to lift the Super Bowl.

The question in my mind now is:
Will New York G-PEAT in 2009? Can it be done in an era of free agency and big egos? What do you think?
