Gronk is a beast

As is Brooks Reed.

I really, really hope that both the Giants and Pats lose next week. I cannot stand two weeks of Super Bowl build up in the Northeast with two local teams playing, nor do I want to spend the next year dealing with either one's obnoxious fanbase.

Let's get a Harbaugh bowl rematch, please. Two stellar defenses, two lame QBs, make it happen.

That's a lot of hatin there Juggs

That hate is the equivalent to a layup line during pre-game warmups. The hate has not even begun, if that is what the SB matchup ends up being, the hate will rain down upon thee like a storm of locusts.

No denyin that

Never will I understand why I care about sports so much. In the last five weeks the Ryan Braun news broke, Wisconsin lost in the Rose Bowl, and then yesterday.

Whatever, go 49ers.

I wonder why there wasn't any of this divine intervention talk when Kurt Warner was collecting MVP awards and leading his team to Super Bowls. Or when Reggie White was the Deacon of Defense. How about when Tom Landry was God's coach. I guess the media just has a bigger influence these days.

[FuzzyWarbles]

I mean Minister Of Defense. Reggie White was the Minister Of Defense.

[Lowerdeck]

Media sucks, true story

As a Giant fan I can guarantee that Reggie White was the Pope of Defense.

Ok, on XMU on Sirius/XM, the DJ repeatedly pronounced it as "tuh-bow" rather than "tee-bow". Is this how it is actually pronounced or was he just being a hipster?

[Lowerdeck]

hipster

[Homer J. Fong]

Like, I don't even really know who to root for. I hate the 49ers, but if they win out then at least the title will be in the NFC West, and then next year when the Seahawks sweep them we can brag about beating up on the defending champs. On the other hand, man, f*ck the 49ers. I hate the Ravens because Ray Lewis. I actually don't have any reason to hate the Patriots or the Giants aside from the complete ball-washing both teams get from the media, plus the hordes of obnoxious fans of both teams that reside here in CT.

If the Patriots and the Giants meet in the Super Bowl, then the only way I'll be satisfied with the outcome is if snipers are involved. Hell, I might just commit seppuku during halftime and get it over with.

[taco]

I'm with the Giants just for Eli at this point. I was bummed when the Saints lost, I would have rooted for them.

[jackson]

I want the Giants to win it all so we can say we had a Super Bowl Champion who was beaten by the Redskins in the regular season...twice.

[ziggyandthemonkeys]

Come on Super Harbaugh Bowl!

I'll be happy if we never beat the Redskins again if it brings a SB win each year.

Y'all should YouTube the Jimmy Fallon Timbowie video if you think that picture is funny. It's a great parody on 'Major Tom'.

Edit: NBC took full version down for copyright silliness.

This Sunday is SO much better than SB Sunday. And should be 2 great games. I think that even people "in the middle of the country" will get off on the fact that these should be two really good matchups. Go Giants!

[CPK]

I'm hoping for a Manning vs Brady rematch and hope Eli wins another one. I just think Eli has always been underrated and another super bowl would finally get him the recognition he deserves

[quacker]

As a Giants fan I have to say (assuming we win of course) that either matchup is wonderful. We could avenge our only SB loss (yes the Giants are 3-1 in SBs) against the Ravens or cement our superiority over the Pats. They both give me goosebumps and I have to pick the revenge against the Ravens. Oh sweet irony. I'm already chubbing.

[ziggyandthemonkeys]

This go hard or go home black eyed peas song makes me want to kill. So bad.

[Lowerdeck]

Every BEP song should make you want to kill.

[elimsnéttikyzarc]

Holy choke. That has to hurt soooooooooooo bad.

[CPK]

Cundiff might want to just ask for a trade before Ray Lewis stabs him

[baconus66]

lol

I'm sticking with my prediction that Gronk will break the all time TD reception in a Super Bowl record

Did he ever return to the game after he hurt his ankle?
