My prediction for the Pats-Ravens game was 24-20. Game ended up at 23-20, so I was pretty darn close. So pay attention!

Final score prediction: Pats 31, Giants 24.

Most important thing of the day - let's have a good, close, fair game and the winner be a gracious winner and the loser not be beat up by the "I told ya so's" on Monday. Thanks Don for giving us a fun thread to celebrate the accomplishment of both teams. There's 30 other teams that wish their fans were in our shoes. Good luck to both teams and may the team with the least turnovers and penalties win!

Default Super Bowl game

Sadly, I think the Patriorts stayed home, particularly the Offensive Play caller. Maybe Mr O'Brien was thinking too much about Penn State.

Yes he is the winner, and he deserves to be insufferable for 24 Hours.

After that he's fair game again.

Make me glad I'm not a sports fan.
I can’t tell you how many people I’ve met who are psychotic over sports teams winning and loosing. I checked the 4th quarter score when we got back from Maine then watched the last minute. It doesn’t tell the story of the whole game but it sure does keep my blood pressure down. Personally, I wish NE teams well but fall short of caring one way or another.

I wantedf the Patriots to win but it is what it is. At least you Giants fans can feel good about the new super bowl record your team broke. That is the team with the worst regular season record ever to go on and win the super bowl.

Thanks SteveA for starting the thread asking for the scores and you keeping track of them. It made the game lots of fun watching and going back to see how bad some of us were with our scores and how close one or two came to the final score.

Giants were the better team.
It stinks but you have to hand it to them. and I hate the manning family, but Manning capitlized on the millions of opportunites that the Pats gave him

None the less, it did not change a thing even if the Pats still won, I was still getting up this morning and going to work

Default Insufferable?

Who, moi? First, thank you SteveA for your congratulations and to all those who offered the same to the Super Bowl XLVI winner. Second, I haven't heard from my other good friend sameredith but I'm sure after he gets out of the clinic for severly depressed football fans, I will. I did hear a little bird tweet something about luckiest team in the world again. Could you offer you offer up what you considered this game's helmet catch? Remember, you can't spell elite without ELI!

OK, that all. I'm headed to Ft. Meyers in three short weeks, where I can see this year's world series champs working out.

Default Congrats Giants!!

While I was rooting for the Pats to win, the winner of the Superbowl comes down to which team makes less mistakes. In this instance the Giants did. Too many mistakes made by the Pats which the Giants capitalized on and proved why they should be the 2012 Superbowl winners.

Congrats to the Giants and their loyal fans!!

Congrats to the Patriots also for making it to the Superbowl!!

Sour grapes on my part Pineedles.Not lucky but that Maningham(ironic name?) catch felt like the Tyree catch.The lucky part(s),NFC championship games 2 muffed punt returns.Superbowl luck part,all the nice bounces on the 2 Giants fumbles.Can't get much luckier than the Pats giving them the ball back after recovering a 3rd fumble having 12 men on the field.We gave you guys 9 points with that gift and Brady's awful 2 point safety.The final luck was the last boneheaded unintended Giant td that gave NE one whole minute instead of 15-20 seconds on the final possesion.You guys won,we lost.I'm sad but I revel in the fact that though we may not win them all,we've gotten to the big game a ridiculous amount of times on this run.Next year will make it a 50% equation with 6 in 12 years!

Congrats Pineedles

I could not believe the last play of the game. How close can you get? This was a top notch game, love it when its so close. Now about the half time and that nasty nasty girl. You think she was saluting a Marine Patrol after she got a ticket for indecent exposure!
