The Super Bowl in Uganda

Sorry that we haven't posted in a while. This post is about the Super Bowl!
Some sports revelation in Boston, huh! First a long-missed World Series title for the Red Sox, and now a perfect season-to-be for the Patriots. But I'm sure that the New York contingent have their fair share of the glory. If Eli and the Giants pull off some miraculous win, then you guys will have something to brag about, huh? You stopped the perfect season (sorry but it's just not going to happen).
We wish we could share in the fun, but there is no way for us to get the game. The internet blocks streaming video, and the network, the Armed Forces Network, isn't working.
Comment on the score and what happened please!

Oh, stopped it they did. In the last possible minute, too. Don't get me wrong, I like the NE Patriots because the last Super Bowl game they played (a few years back) was exciting too. I guess I am more for cheering for whichever team as necessary to ensure an exciting game. One day I may even understand the game enough to critique the game intelligently for you. :-)

At any rate, Jay reported from college that he started cheering for the Giants after long throw in the 4th Q (~30 yards) with less than 2 minutes to go. The score was 10-7, Giant. Then, 10-14, Patriots, with about 1.5 min to go. The Giants had a miraculous catch of long throw at 3rd down with <60 sec to go. Then they scored the final goal to make it 17-14, Giants, with <30 sec on the clock.

It was quite a game. Now you will have to get some good sport reporter to give you the accurate details and analysis.

Hmmm...I have been off celebrating the WIN for the Giants who by the way, were perfect in the playoffs (when it counts) and just got around to this blog entry. Luck happens once, not 4 weeks in a row!!

tom said...

John Campbell said...

"only ones to beat Patriots when it counted and now have the Vince Lombardi Trophy" (10-6)
