Super Bowl XLII

Number seven.

Who was the MVP of Super Bowl 42 where the Giants upset the Patriots? The answer is Eli Manning.

Number eight.

Which NFL coach has the most career wins? It's Don Shula with 347.

What NFL team was originally named the Decatur Staley's? If you're from my neck of the woods, you know this one.

the Chicago Bears.

Which team ended the New England Patriots perfect season in Super Bowl 42? That'd be the New York Giants.

What year did the Baltimore Ravens win their first Super Bowl? It's 2001.

No.

And he makes the catch, and like we saw last week with Kwame Lasseter, like we saw in Super Bowl XLII with Asante Samuel, like we've seen many times when a defense feels like it slammed the door and it's gotten the win, and then it's like, oh, wait, we haven't? That's the opportunity, and they had two shots.

And, you know, I don't know if you saw this closely.

I don't know if you've gone back and watched it.

Oh, did they? If not, still the same.

In Super Bowl XLII, their opening drive that resulted in a field goal.

Yeah, that was a long drive.

Well, what's funny is most of these long, sustained drives are not touchdowns for that reason.

Now, I didn't have to wait that long, but I was such a diehard nut that, like, it felt like I was waiting forever.

So when they beat the undefeated Patriots in Super Bowl XLII, it, I felt like I, like, broke out of Shawshank as a sports fan.

And I remember when they won that, even before the game, at halftime of the game, and I, I, I watched that game with a couple Fordham guys, Andrew Bogus, Sean Butler among them, and I remember thinking like, "I kind of don't care what happens for the rest of my life in sports if they win this game." And they won.

So great, they lost to the Eagles.

And so I loved the commercial you did with Mercury Morris.

I think it was like a FedEx commercial and he sent you the ball, said thank you.

You

sound like Tom Brady before Super Bowl XLII.

Only 17 points.

I have that in my mind.

me tell you something.

Before the Giants won Super Bowl XLII, I would have done unspeakable things for them to win that game against the Patriots.

Unspeakable.

And I'm not saying this to credit myself.
