I watched for my man Petty, but really enjoyed the game even though I didn't really care who won.

oh no August west....your an eagles fan. No we will finish ahead of you next year, just like we did this year. And you should really be ashamed of yourself being an eagles fan and in any way being happy for the giants.

New York Giants 2008 Super Bowl Champs.

Yeah Baby.

The giants won me some money. So I can't complain. Even though I bet against the pats I have to admit when the game ended I was not as excited as I thought I would be. It was sorta anti-climatic. "Okay folks that's the end of the NFL season the Giants win the super bowl as the 5th seed from the NFC" I don't know just sort of let me down.

Oh and watch our for the birds next year. There is always a suprise team every year. Next year is going to be the Eagles!

Ya know looking back on it 12 ..13 points is a lot to give..feel like a moron for not taking the points.
I bought into the UNSINKABLE TOM BRADY thing.
I still think hes the best QB right now.
The Giants have some great D line men that get to the QB so the under seems obvious now...
The best part of the playoffs was Dallas going down.
The weakest was the Pats coach leaving the field early.
:cool:

This is not something we should be bragging over. Our last one was almost 50 years ago?

I've been alive since '73. In that time we have 4 championships. '74-'75 (back to back Flyers), '80 Phillies and the '83 Sixers (and I hate basketball so that doesn't even count for me). That's pathetic. The New England area has 5 in the past how many years (7 or 8)?

Alright, I'm depressed. :(

Dude- Yer on my side remember?
If I cant brag on those last century championships what can I brag on?
Dude hey Flyers on the way back...
Birds will be back...
Sixers are done...
Phils.....frauds
And hey New England deserves all the Supes they get 'cause the Patriots were the worst team for decades.
I as a Philly Sports fan remain steadfast and stout against the Gods of Sports!
I'm 40 now and I vow to celebrate a Championship sometime in the future decades.
Does Arena Football count?
Indoor Lacrosse? :lol:

That goes out to all you NFC East fans, out there... :lol:

Listen everybody, it's great the Giants won and beat the smug Pats and put "the genius" in his rightful place. Nice regular season, but when push came to shove....they couldn't hang.

The team to watch out for next year (pending some BIG TIME NEEDED off-season moves):

The Pittsburgh Steelers.

Shall we count Championships since I was born in 1969 for my fair city???

*1971 Pirates win World Series
*1975 Steelers win Super Bowl IX
*1976 Steelers win Super Bowl X
*1979 Steelers win Super Bowl XIII
*1979 Pirates win World Series
*1980 Steelers win Super Bowl XIV
*1991 Penguins win Stanley Cup
*1992 Penguins win Stanley Cup
*2006 Steelers win Super Bowl XL

Obviously you don't have to worry about the Pirates anytime in the future....but look out for the Steelers and the Penguins!!!

That's my point--we can't brag on anything. We're pathetic. We're like Boston was with baseball until they won the WS a couple of years ago. Except they had the Celtics winning championships by the bucketful so they weren't the completely pathetic losers Philly fans are.

Next year (I've been saying all my life). :)
