One of the enduring images from New England’s historic Super Bowl XLII loss to the Giants four years ago was Bill Belichick’s red hoodie sweatshirt.

One man apparently not concerned about the nation’s economy is rapper supreme Birdman.
Earlier this week, he tweeted his willingness to bet anyone $5 million that the New England Patriots will defeat the New York Giants on February 5 in Super Bowl XLVI.

Super Bowl XLVI remains just under two weeks away but it is rather clear that one man will be a resounding loser in the court of public opinion in the days, weeks, and months to follow the festivities in Indianapolis.
Once upon a time in a galaxy not so far away, some people considered Peyton Manning to be the greatest quarterback of all-time.
However, once the confetti settles at Lucas Oil Field on February 5, Manning’s legacy is going to take a dent.

I was on another Twitter account moments ago and was nearly stoned by a Niner fan for even suggesting that someone/something else was responsible for San Francisco losing to the Giants on Sunday.
Alas, it’s time to address the Kyle Williams situation or assorted NFC title game issues.

Truth being told I am not sure I'm going to watch the unSuper Bowl since the two best teams are sitting at home

Over 24 hours removed from losing the AFC Championship to New England on Sunday, Ravens linebacker Brendon Ayanbadejo is in no mood to watch Super Bowl XLVI.
He referred to the second Giants/Patriots meeting this season as the “UnSuper Bowl” on his Twitter page and maintained that a Harbaugh Bowl rematch would have pitted the two best teams in football.
False.
It would have pitted the two best defenses in football facing off for Vince Lombardi Trophy.
After watching Sunday’s NFC title game, it would be hard to say that the word “best” should be associated with anything outside of the Niners defense, which was arguably the best unit on the field during Championship Sunday.
Bitterness does not suit you well Mr. Ayanbadejo.

Here it is.
Gerry Sandusky’s radio call of the Lee Evans dropped TD pass in yesterday’s AFC title game.

In the NFC Championship game preview, I referenced teams being forced to play left-handed because defenses will try to takeaway what you do best.
Thus, teams need other players to step up. While Billy Cundiff will take a lot of blame (and rightfully so), the inability of Lee Evans to make a play late in the fourth quarter against New England ultimately kept Baltimore out of the Super Bowl.

The rematch is set.
Super Bowl XLVI will feature a rematch of Super Bowl XLII after the Giants knocked off the San Francisco 49ers in overtime, 20-17, during Sunday’s NFC Championship game.
Giants kicker Lawrence Tynes booted a 31-yard field goal in overtime to send the victorious G-Men to Indianapolis after 49ers punt returner Kyle Williams coughed up his second punt of the day.

Not sure we’ll be able to top the drama late in the AFC title game, but here we go…

Patriots radio play-by-play man Gil Santos was as stunned as the rest of America that Billy Cundiff couldn’t put the Ravens/Patriots game into overtime.
