NY Giants take the Superbowl and the Patriots by surprise

After trailing slightly behind the undefeated New England through most of the game,the NY Giants came back and won in a 17-14 upset with a mere 28 seconds or so left on the 4th quarter.

The Victory Parade will commence on Tuesday,ironically the same day as primary elections and lots of fanfare is expected-the Big blue has damn well earned it!Eli Manning was named Superbowl 42 MVP and Terry Bradshaw awarded him the keys to a new Cadillac Escalade.I am so psyched and Very,very proud to be a Giants fan tonight after they won their 3rd Superbowl.It proves that nice guys do not always finish last and the underdogs always come back!

Super Bowl Sunday!

The week is coming to a close and people are stocking up on snacks,buying booze,and making plans-sounds like a holiday weekend,but it isn't-at least not officially on the calendar.It is Superbowl Weekend!Many people go out to sports bars,restaurants and fraternal clubs for festivities and multiple screen viewing.Others are having guests over to watch at their home.Either way,it's certainly a seasonal boost to some businesses-I heard on the national news yesterday that Superbowl Sunday is the biggest day of the year in sales for Dominos and other pizza delivery chains.Sales of snack food,soda,beer and liquor triple the week prior to the big game.
And inevitably,the later the game goes on,the tardier people will be for work or school on Monday!
There is alot of excitement over this game at my house because as some of of you know,we root for "The big blue" in Totmomland.Hubby is going to a Superbowl party at a family members home and since I am not really a hardcore football fan I am going to stay home and watch while I catch up on chores-exciting,huh?I am hearing alot of people say they think the Pats will win,even with Bradys injury but I just have a feeling that this is the Giants year and I hope I am right.
I also wanted to remind y'all that as of tomorrow(Friday)it's been 4 years since Janet Jackson had her televised "wardrobe malfunction"during the half-time show.I also recalled people making a big deal over it but when I saw what all the fuss was about,I did not find it to be anywhere near as explicit as some of the daytime soap operas can get.People were outraged because "kids had been watching"-which was funny.A kid who sees a bare breast on Tv is probably NOT going to grow up to be a perv because of it....
So what is everyone doing for the Superbowl?And who are you rooting for?

New York Giants are NFC Champions!!!!!!!

Thanks to a game-winning kick in the end,the NY Giants have defeated Green Bay in overtime and will be going to the Superbowl!The 4th quarter was one of those edge of your seat games and now,7 years after their last NFC trophy,they are on their way to the big game!!!!!!!The late Wellington Mara would be proud!!!!!

The "Big "Blue" is rolling into Green Bay next!

Yesterday was "super-happy fun time" at Totmoms house-the NY Giants defeated the Cowboys and are now headed to the divisionals!YAY!Everyone I have talked to today thinks it will end up being Giants vs Patriots this year at the Superbowl.Who knows?If they can get past the Packers,they will be Division Champions and return to the big game seven years after being defeated by Baltimore.We had a family member call from the bar where he was watching it and you could hear some drunk dude in the background yelling"Romo,Romo!"Talk about some disappointed Dallas fans this year!If any of you are Giants fans be sure to "sport your colors" this week and dust off those replica jerseys.This could be their year!!!!

YEAH! NY Giants on the road to the championship!

Today the New York Giants mowed down Tampa Bay and they are on their way!They will meet Dallas next and since the Cowboys haven't been doing so good,who knows what could happen next?They lost to the Cowboys in their season opener so maybe they are hoping for some payback!Eli Manning,who has been under fire for some time,redeemed himself today on the field.I just very badly want to see the Giants make it to the Superbowl this year.With 14 years under his belt,Michael Strahan may not be playing many more years and it would be cool to see him with a Superbowl ring on his hand when he does retire!On another note,it was great to see Rande Barber playing,even if the Bucs did lose.You can't help but think of Tiki when you see his twin in action!

So,fellow NY fans-put on your hoodies and T's and rally round the TV next weekend and join me in rooting for the Big Blue!
