Super Bowl 42

It would be easy for me to point out all of the nay-sayers, all of the football fans who thought it couldn't be done, and especially easy for me to point out all of the sad, sad Patriots fans (and not just because their faces are still stained with bitter tears of shock and resentment toward Brady).

It would be easy.

But that's the problem, it's just too easy.

It would be like pulling a chair from underneath a blind person and then laughing when they fall.

Of course it's an easy joke and that's why I am not going to do it.

No, I won't focus on the arrogant statements by Patriots players, fans and most of New England before the game.

I'm going to focus on the David in this contest that successfully served up a lovely platter of New England Patriots for sacrifice: The Giants.

The Giants were the underdogs of not only the Super Bowl, but for much of the year and the took on the undefeated punks of football.

The Patriots thought of the Giants as a last speed bump on their highway to the perfect season.

But as we all now know, they thought wrong. Really, really wrong.
