As we march toward kickoff in the 2008 NFL season, let's revisit last year's Super Bowl. It was an historic, and an exciting game - and one that changed the lives of countless New Yorkers.

From the Cubs Brickyard: (New York, NY) - One week after the New York Giants defeated the previously undefeated New England Patriots in one of the most exciting Super Bowl's in recent memory, the people of New York City are still buzzing about their first championship in literally years.

"We were just happy to do this for our fans, the fans of New York," Super Bowl MVP Eli Manning said. "It's a city of loss and heartbreak, so for us to finally bring a championship after all those long years is really special for us."

Historic - it ws an abomination and a series of 1 in a hundred breaks and freak plays that got them the win ---- Asante Samuel had the interception that would have ended the game slip through his fingers; Eli is almost sacked on that long pass play but manages to escape for the frst time in 100 similar such plays (thanks in part to a hold by the Giants offensive linesman that was not called); and the catch was a pure fluke of nature. Giants won - congrats. They will not be in the playoffs in 2009 --- end of story.
