As what? Pathetic losers?

Yeah, I guess that could make history.

Eli Manning - not as bad as we thought.

NY played better, and they were great on defense. But I don't really see what you've got against Brady? Yes, he couldn't do what he should have done, but that was because of the Giants smart plays.

And Manning really did turn the game around by himself, escaping the 4-man sack attempt. That was the best play of the game.

I really wanted the Pats to win though, couldn't go to sleep after the game..

"WOOOOOO!"

What a glorious feeling...Giants deserved that game in every sense of the word.

Earlier in the season there was some kind of... Razor blade commercial or something that deemed Eli Manning "Unstoppable"...
I always had a chuckle... "Of all the QBs to call unstoppable", I'd say...

It was just kind of funny that the New England O-line that has received so much praise was unable to protect Brady last night. They should have lost to the Eagles and the Ravens. It was inevitable.

So which one was the underdog again? They lost, right?

The Patriots were trying to complete the first undefeated season in the NFL since like the 1972 Dolphins, and the first since they extended the season to 16 games in 1978...

The Giants were, if I remember correctly from the pre-game show, the lowest-seeded NFL team to ever make it to the Super Bowl... And only the second wild-card team (and the first of the NFC division) to win it...

The Giants were pretty much as much of an underdog as you can get...

Billy B's face afterwards was priceless.

His press conference was the most amazing of all. I think he uttered 12 syllables in 5 minutes.

You have to feel sorry for Tom Brady though, now he has to go home and count his money and have sex with Giselle.

And he probably just passed his peak. Did you see how many times he got sacked? I'm sure every coach in the NFL is re-watching the game and taking notes. I doubt there will be an offensive line that will hold Brady together like this season. The Giants even managed to contain Moss. Brady is yesterday's news. He's still really talented, but now he's human, now he's the guy who went 18-1. Brady is the victim of one of the biggest upsets in Super Bowl/NFL history. And Bill Belichick has been upgraded from "cheater" to "cheating cry-baby bastard." I can't believe he walked off the field early, what a prick. At least show some class, it's not like you haven't won 3 Super Bowls already.
