This weekend is about the New York Giants. \u00a0It’s about the Super Bowl, and a championship. \u00a0It’s about perhaps a parade on Tuesday and random rankings of Eli Manning among the greatest QBs in the game today.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
So good luck to the Giants. \u00a0I’m looking forward to this game, and like so many so-called experts on Twitter, blogs, radio and tv, I’m going to give you my meaningless prediction. \u00a030-16 Giants. \u00a0It’ll seem closer than that though. \u00a0The Giants will score early in the second half to go up 23-13, and the Patriots will answer with a field goal. \u00a0The next score will be halfway through the fourth quarter when Tom Brady is picked off deep in his own zone. \u00a0 He’ll then turn the ball over on downs on the Giants 44 yard line, and Eli will run out the clock slowly driving down the field and taking a knee.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The Giants, and NY and NJ, will celebrate. \u00a0The Senate will drink NY beers bought by New England\u00a0politicians. \u00a0There will be a parade. \u00a0Then, despite five other local sports teams playing professional sports, all eyes will turn to baseball. \u00a0We’ll tick into single digits of days remaining until pitchers and catchers report.<\/p>\n

And it can’t come soon enough. Let’s Go Mets!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
