My Pats -9.5 over your giants.
Bets 100k and up, up to 2 million in total.
Bring it!
750k on Big Blue. Everyone thinks it'll be a blow out. Not me...
Pack fan at heart so I guess I'll have to go with a team that DIDN'T destroy the chances of my Superbowl Sunday being fun...so Patriots are going to win by 14+ points. (Contrary to Plaxico's 23-17 prediction :p).

oh, and the Giants didn't destroy the Pack's chance at a super bowl... I'm a Packers fan myself, and it was bad decision making by the offensive coordinator's fault. Probably Brett's fault as well (as much as I hate to place blame on my favorite player in the NFL of all time...), on account he has the final say in what a play will be...
"Okay, it's third and long... Let's throw it to the flat and hope he can make a move on six guys..."
Favre going for the longball all day didn't help much either... He is the master of the short slant route, which would've eaten the Giants up the way they were playing. This would have been adjusted of course, to suit. But the Packers should have never let that game even go to overtime, even if Tynes had made those 2 FGs...
The Giants were outmatched.
The Packers were outplayed.

When I see a pass to the flats or a running play on 3rd and long, I almost always want to put my foot through the t.v. Watching some Cowboy games (Giants are my favorite, but I do live in Tejas you know) just drove me crazy...
You are right about the short slants and the Giants... They opened up with those short passes and were eating field like nothing... They should have kept it up...

I would be happy to bet if you gave the appropriate amount of points, 12.5!
thought the spread was 14?
it's not looking like the pats are going to cover the spread. And I'm thinking if they win, it'll be barely.

I'm thinking they will win, but I'm also hoping they lose by 3... Just for that cocky 4th down play...

Go Giants Go... Guess all those lickin's the d line put on Brady got in his head. :P)
Tom Brady wasn't playing like Tom Brady today. I'm just glad that the Giants won without any calls or penalties that can be considered cheap... Like that Seattle/Pittsburgh Superbowl...

I would also like to add that I believe Eli Manning wholly deserved the MVP of Superbowl XLII. When he pulled out of that would-be sack late in the fourth quarter AND made the completion (which was also spectacular beyond recognition) I almost crapped my pants.
