Giant Upset.

In easily one of the most exciting Superbowls in recent memory, Eli Manning and the NY Giants score an upset 17-14 victory over the seemingly inevitable New England Patriots. (The big losers? NE's offensive line and pass protection, which looked terrible last night.) Inasmuch as I'm an NFL fan, I root for the Jets. Still, I'm all for a good game, and backing the NY-area underdog against the (increasingly suspect) Patriot machine was an easy call. Besides between the Sox last year and arguably the Celts this summer, a perfect Patriot season would've made Hub-area fans totally insufferable. So, congrats to the Giants, and let's hope Sen. Obama benefits from a similar kind of underdog magic tomorrow...
