Pro:<\/p>\n
1) THE GIANTS WIN THE SUPER BOWL!!!!! w00t!<\/p>\n
2) Michael Strahan and Amani Toomer get championship rings, which is particularly sweet, because they suffered through some really awful teams.<\/p>\n
3) Eli Manning drinks for free in the tri-state area. This’ll buy him at least six months of peace and quiet from the New York press. That was one of the all-time great fourth quarters. I have no idea how he got away from that one sack, and Tyree’s catch was amazing.<\/p>\n
4) This breaks up Boston’s sports hegemony for the year, which couldn’t happen to a nicer bunch of fans.<\/p>\n
5) THE GIANTS WIN THE SUPER BOWL!!!<\/p>\n
Cons:<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
1) Unhappy Kate.<\/p>\n
2) Another N years of the goddamn 1972 Dolphins.<\/p>\n
3) Wall-to-wall Manning brothers in every commercial break next season.<\/p>\n
4) Unhappy Kate.<\/p>\n
I think the Pro side wins…<\/p>\n
Since I’ve been wrong about all my predictions this post-season, let me throw out another one that I hope is wrong: Strahan is gone, and probably Toomer as well. Strahan almost retired this year, and there’s no better way to go out than winning the Super Bowl with a great defensive performance.Toomer’s also getting long in the tooth, too.<\/p>\n
Steve Spagnuolo will likely be the head coach somewhere next year, too. <\/p>\n
But for now, the Giants win!!! Woo!!!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
