Manning and The Giants Do the Unthinkable

As you know, they pulled off the all-time upset of the NFL by beating the undefeated New England Patriots. The Giants defense was able to put pressure on Tom Brady, the Pats' quarterback, shut down his wide receivers and place a choke hold on their running backs. And, Manning took over Super Bowl 42 and created the best Super Bowl play of all-time with David Tyree.

As my friend, Harry, who's a diehard Miami Dolphins fan, put it, "[I'm a] Giants fan for life. It's like Christmas!" I think everyone in the country was routing for the Giants and for the Pats to end their season 18-1. This win is that much sweeter for me as a Yankees fan.
