Today's the day of the Big One.

Who has everyone got?
And I think Umenyiora for MVP. The Giants defense is the key to the game. I see them taking the challenge and holding Moss to a couple of receptions. If that happens Welker will just step in again. If they can stop the Pats early and hold them to 7 or less first quarter points, I see it happening. We saw the Giants cope with them for the most part in week 17, so I think Belichek might mix it up a bit, use his running game early on, and try and grind down the Giant's youthful defense.
I like the Giants about 27-24 after a late drive to win.

Here are a few previews

I am pulling for the giants, but I really think it will be over by halftime.

45 - 21 patriots
 
Anyone know what time the actual kickoff is?

Why get caught up in the actual game, when the pregame show has Ryan Seacrest and is highlighting all the celebrity parties that have been held all week? /sarcasmoff/

The Hollywood hype the Super Bowl has gotten in recent years really makes me ill. I was watching the pregame to see if there was any news on Charles Grant, and decided to switch it back to the Rangers/Canadians hockey game. And it's had some good fights so far, too! :9:

I'll go back when the "actual game" begins (which, btw, is around 5:15, I believe?)
 
Nice job on the National Anthem by Jordin Sparks. I did not know her dad is a former NFL player.

Let's get on with the game already!!!

GO ELI!!!!!!!!!


I'm going with my heart, and saying Giants win, 28-24.
 
I am predicting a Mike Carey screwup in 5, 4, 3, 2. . .
 
Go ELI!!!!!!!!!!!!!
