Super Bowl

It's here. Nothing more can really be said. If you have somehow missed some of the chatter, you can find your way to the links of interest on the main sites.

I went with 34-33 Giants the Monday after the championship games, and I guess I will stick with that. It's a legit long-shot pick though. The Patriots are the vastly superior team. They can make mistakes and still win, even easily. The Giants make mistakes and they will get crushed.

The usual mind-numbing talking points apply for this one. The Giants will have to be creative in their game plan and be flawless in their execution of same. They will have to get pressure on Tom Brady from their front four and try and capitalize on any mistakes. They will need a good running game to put Eli Manning in favorable down and distances and limit his opportunities to force the ball and make mistakes. They will have to be lucky.

That's all improbable, of course. At least improbable to all occur throughout the game today. But yaneverknow. And the Giants have been charmed and good in the playoffs. And perhaps it extends one more improbable game. Sure, why not?

34-33 Giants.
