The Stage Is Set

We know who the players are. It was no surprise with the Patriots winning. The other game by contrast though was up for grabs. I was split on who I was rooting for. Either way it would make a good story for the the two weeks leading up to the Super Bowl. With the Packers winning you had the story about an old guy who can still play the game with the young guys. Favre is truly amazing. With the Giants you had the wrong Manning in the Super Bowl. The big brother was supposed to be there but the little brother came out of nowhere. Regardless, I thought all along that this game might end up being better than the Super Bowl and I may have been right because went down to the wire and even into overtime. The little Manning will be going but he is up against what seems to be an insurmountable opponent in Brady and the Patriots. I guess you never know though and that is why they play every game.
