After watching the Super Bowl game last night, a few things stick in my mind...
No one is invincible. The Pats showed that a whole year of not losing and the building pressure that goes with it adds up to a big letdown and loss. It would have been better to lose the next to last game of the season and cruise through the playoffs without the undefested monkey on your back waiting to slap you silly.
The Giants wanted it more. They were flying around the field like possessed men. They beat the Pats in every area, most importantly, the final score.
Class acts overcome money. All the money and all the king's men, couldn't guarantee a Super Bowl win. Enough said.
Spygate will play out without much consequence. Even if the powers that be find some smoking gun from the past, I doubt that little will come of it, even though a coach is ultimately responsible for his and his team's actions. I think the owners should also be held responsible - they chose the coach and they could have fired or suspended him, but it seems that was overlooked so as to achieve the goal of winning at all costs, to keep revenue up and fans in the seats.
Other than that, it was a wonderful Super Bowl, actually more interesting than the commercials this time...
