18-1

Now, I know this is supposed to be a baseball blog, but I can't help but talk about by far the biggest sport event today. And I'm not talking about Tiger Woods winning his second tournament of the season.

One heck of a football game played today. Congrats to the New York Football Giants. They played one awesome game as underdogs, and looked like the best team in football. The Giants defense should have been the MVPs. Defense wins championships.

Some issues with the game though.

  1. It's time for a new network to take over the Super Bowl. If I see another Sarah Conner Chronicles commercial or lame American Idol tie-in, I'm gonna go berserk.
  2. Along the same lines; Lame broadcast. Joe Buck and Troy Aikman: very underwhelming.
  3. Some weak officiating. Missed the 12 men on field penalty, requiring a challenge. Booth didn't review some key plays in the final 2 minutes.
  4. Belichick, looking quite stylish in a new bright red Patriots, was the biggest loser of the night. He showed a complete lack of class leaving the field before the game was finished.

Besides my little weak gripes, one heck of a football game. The Patriots Dynasty is over. Let the Manning Brothers Dynasty begin.

Now that the other sport is out of the way, back to our regularly scheduled programming.
