... I can't be the only one watching surely? And if you're watching in the UK and have the option, go for the Five Live Sports Extra commentary. Greg Brady and Darren Fletcher are a team that manage to strike the right balance between catering for a British audience while not patronising too much.
You arent NNW. I have just tuned it too. It will be a great match. Its such a shame the Packers fell in the last furlong!
Glad to have you here Dan I hope this game is even half as good as 49ers vs Saints a few weeks ago. That was one of the greatest sporting contests I've ever seen.
Has to be the Giants. Knocked out the Packers, knocked out the 49ers after that game, and I've been to New York. Wouldn't say I'm particularly strongly going for them though. What about you? IMO this is the one day of the year that proper sporting fans can get away with being unashamed glory hunters.
Im going the other way lol. No reason what so ever other than that i had not heard of the pats much. The Giants are a well known team, so go for the "smaller" team. Its certainly something we can all enjoy.
Bit annoyed right now because I can't get Darren Fletcher and Greg Brady. Why not? Because some commercial genius at the International Hockey Federation decided to schedule the women's final to clash with the Super Bowl, and some genius at the BBC decided that freeview viewers would rather watch that than the Super Bowl.
9-0 Giants, 19 plays to one. This is about as competitive as Australia vs Japan in Rugby League. Still, if there's one sport you can count on a comeback in, it's American Football.
Patriots 1st down on the 17 at the start of the 2nd quarter. Fingers crossed they'll bring it back down to one score. I'm rooting for the Giants but what I really want is a contest.
Dan, any chance you could abuse your position and make this an article? Might draw a bit more traffic.
Unfortunately mate i cant. Im not a mod for the board and dont have the power. I might apply to be a mod of this and the WWE boards though, so i can get them some more traffic hopefully.
If he's out for as long as McGinn he's touch and go for the start of the 2013 season. Hope the prognosis is better than that. Described by Brady as "a whack in the sack" before he realised the severity of the injury. The sort of one-liner that very few others would get away with.
Great punt. Rugby union players are generally better kickers than American Football punters, but even Wilkinson in his pomp would've struggled to match that.
