I'm really hoping that the giants have some fire left from the last two wins.  I really REALLY don't like the Pats. I gotta go with my SIU Alum Brandon Jacobs

Pats-24
Giants-27

I was cheap and only bought one square.  9 and 9.  I will watch the game for the commercials. That is about the only thing that will matter unless the Patriots win 49-9.

I guess I don't care that much either although I'd rather see the Giants win.  But mostly I want to see:

Giants under 21
Pats over 33.5
Sacks over 4
Giants more penalty yds than the Pats
Interceptions over 2.5
Pats no 1st half rushing TD
Pats no 4th down conversions
Pats under 118.5 rushing yds
Brady over 300.5 passing yds
Brady over 36.5 pass attempts
Brady with atlesat 1 1st qtr TD pass
Brady with atleast 1 3rd qtr TD pass
Maroney under 85.5 rushing yds
Maroney's longest run under 16.5 yds
Maroney under 19.5 rush attempts
Moss 2 or more TDs
Pats -12 and Over 54.5
Pats -7 in the 1st half
Brady wins MVP

I changed my mind, the Pats are going to annihilate the Giants even though I'd like to see the Giants win.

Pats 45
Giants 17

Interesting bets. I would have gone with the other way with the ones in bold.

Wow.  Guess I should have stayed with my first instinct on this game.

Most entertaining Super Bowl I've ever seen.  I really wanted to see the Giants pull it off once it came down to the end.  It was exciting as hell on that last drive.

Seriously, the Pats offense looked eerily similar to the Bears offense yesterday.  No time to throw for Brady and nowhere to run for Maroney. 

I'm not saying I believe this, but all the people who think the Pats were cheating all these years have even more reason to keep believing it now.  Half way through the season they stopped blowing teams out and their dominance seemed to get less and less with every game.  Personally I think they just needed to lose a game during the regular season.  Maybe if they lost that game to Indy or to Baltimore, it would have taken alot of the pressure off later in the year and let them be more loose and fresh for the playoffs.  Most of the Pats players including Brady looked emotionally drained towards the end of that game.  That could also be because Brady spent more time on the ground than on his feet.  He got JACKED up!
