GO G-MEN, you are best this year!
The Pats were good but they finished with 18 wins and 1 GIANT LOSS!
“The relentless Giants rolled to a Super Bowl championship – and now they’ll roll up the Canyon of Heroes.
Tomorrow’s ticker-tape parade will begin at 11 a.m. at Battery Place, head north on Broadway to Chambers Street, and be followed by a ceremony at City Hall Plaza, where the team is to be honored by Mayor Bloomberg and a host of officials.” – NY Post
I will be there to celebrate the best team in the NFL on this Championship day! Boo-hoo to the class-less Belichick – have fun with Congress!
The peak rating between 9:30 and 10 was 47.8, with a whopping 105.7 million viewers, more than a third of all Americans.
Super Bowl XLII was watched by an average of 97.5 million viewers, according to Nielsen’s “fast national” estimates, making it the most-watched American sports event ever, easily surpassing the 94.1 million for Super Bowl XXX between the Steelers and Cowboys in Arizona 12 years ago.
Fox was working Monday afternoon to determine exactly where the game ranked in the history of all sports and entertainment programs. The M*A*S*H finale in 1983 was seen by an estimated 106 million people, No. 1 on the list.
The game attracted 43.2 percent of households and 65 percent with a TV in use, making it the highest-rated Super Bowl since the Rams-Titans game in 2000 (43.3/67).
Classless cheating Belicheat indeed.
Btw TRUE dynasties never lose the Superbowl.
And can all these comparisons between Brady and Montana stop already? Montana doesn’t lose Superbowls.
As in trading, its crucial to always keep the big picture in mind – Dont let short term fluctuations cloud the picture.
“It was a monumental day for the New York Giants, a gritty, well-deserved victory in Super Bowl XLII.
For the New England Patriots, it was a monumental crash, the loudest in NFL history.
But in the big picture, it changed nothing about the landscape of the league. The Patriots remain the NFL’s model of excellence, the envy of every organization.
They still have four Super Bowl appearances in the past seven years and are one of the few teams that you can be sure will have another postseason 11 months from now.
The Giants? Besides being the reigning Super Bowl champions, they are a one-hit wonder for now. They are Hanson. They just sang “MMMBop,” and if they’ve got anything else to put on an album, well, we’ll just have to see.
It’s still New England’s dynasty. The Giants are just passing through.”

Congrats to the Giants & Coughlin for a great win.

‘World Champions’……hahaha.
Awesome game but some perspective please. And the ‘World Series’….don’t even get me started!
anothercountry,
We don’t care about soccer here! Only sports for real men! Try not to get your hands too dirty – all in good fun!
I was there too yesterday, fun stuff.
Still can’t get my arms around this, amazing.
Hi Chris,
Why do you use a 30 MA on RIMM, while you use a 40 MA on the other charts?
Thanks….Ray
Hey Chris….no disrespect to gridiron. It is a great sport. But it is tougher to be on the field all of the game taking your hits without padding in sports like rugby.
And yes ‘soccer’ (where the foot is used!) isn’t as physical but it is a true world game with true world champions!
