History will place the 2007 Giants among the most unlikely champions ever. 0-2 to start the season, down 17-3 at halftime of their third game, bad losses to Minnesota and Washington, down 14-0 off the bat in Buffalo, a comeback in Dallas, an OT winner in Green Bay and a 17-14 victory over the perfect Patriots- it simply doesn’t get any better than this for Giants fans.
Everyone was saying that if the Giants were to have a chance in the Super Bowl, their defense would need to get to Tom Brady. Well, they did that. Sacking the Patriots quarterback five times, the most sacks allowed by the Patriots this season. In addition to the sacks, the Giants defense knocked Brady down 9 times and hurried him on countless other occasions.
What can you say about Eli Manning who went from goat to Super Bowl hero in six weeks? The final drive was a testimony to his growth as a quarterback. Manning, the Super Bowl XLII MVP, was 19 of 34 and threw for 255 yards and 2 touchdowns. How about Tom Coughlin who was almost run out of town after last year’s 8-8 finish and not only turned his team around but changed his entire demeanor? Justin Tuck went from a third round pick to one of the key reasons the Giants won this game. David Tyree caught four balls in the regular season and made two of the biggest catches in Giants’ history.
All of them and so many more contributed to a truly team championship and now we can all get ready for a parade on Tuesday. It should be, like everything before it, one hell of a show.

Now on sale from amazon, 19-0 , the book
Is this going to be one of those serial posts like the Heath Ledger story?
I think we got the idea that the Giants won with the previous post.
Snoopy, it's ALL about the Giants today, tomorrow, and until the start of the 2008 football season.
18-1!
It's the new 1918!
That was the most amazing game ever!!!! When all hope was lost Eli Manages to go the other way on snatch and grab and throws a prayer to Tyree who also catches a miracle. It's like he just hugged the sky. Unfuckingbelievable! I had a feeling the giants would win cause there was no pressure on them to do so. It was all going the patriots way but the giants D just demolished the pats O-line. The Giants D should be on amber alert the way they molested the shit out of Brady.
I hope you are all wearing BLUE today!
what's two miles long, has an asshole every four inches, and an iq of 50?
tomorrow's parade.
I give up. What?
Wow two true new yorkers above me.
How about you two clowns go back to Missouri and help mom with her Wal-Mart shift?
If you were a real new yorker, living here your whole life, you might care about a championship win.
But because you don't, you feel the need to piss in our cheerios. honestly? just fuck off. no one really seems to care about your whining. get knee-deep in that Zadie Smith novel you pretend to understand and shut up.
What I want to know is who is the marketing dimwit over at Salesgenie.com that approved those godawful, bordering-on-racist ads? Pandas with chinee accents? Indian guy with 7 children? Terrible animation? WTF were they thinking? They've got 5 million to blow in spot time and that's the best they could come up with?
This is the only parade I'll ever go to.
No, no, no, Navin, there's no parade in Boston tomorrow. The Patriots lost.
I don't care about football at all, but as a New Yorker there is nothing more gratifying than beating New Englanders.
It's karma. The Justin Tuck Rule.
It all gets down to sex. Brady got some nuggie the night before and Eli is still waiting to get laid for the first time. Perhaps last night was his first.
Eli has a fiance. I doubt they're saving themselves for marriage.
That was the most important win in the 82-year history of the franchise. And quite possibly the most amazing win in the history of the NFL (debatable, but possible). I'm in Florida so I'm going to miss the parade but I would have been there otherwise. I think I had four heart attacks while watching the game last night. This type of game will keep me happy for the next decade.
HOW BOUT DEM GIANTS!!!!!!!!!!
I am sure Snoopy can get some comforting nuggie from navinjohnson after the devastating loss. I heard that's what New Englanders do up north in those cold hard winters besides drinking themselves numb. And the only thing that counts is the final numbers: 17-14, and 18-1.
Congrats Giants!
