Default Here to collect - WatsonIQ

I was one of the few Giant fans on this board giving reasons why I suspected the Giants would win a close game. I took a lot of heat from you guys, which was fair and I expected it.

I don't like trolls, and I am not here to be one... nor was I being one when I was I giving the reasons why the Giants could win (contrary to many accusations at that time).

You guys have nothing to hang your heads about... your team was a class act in defeat. Everyone from Moss to Brady didn't make excuses, which showed class.

I am here to collect on a little friendly wager WatsonIQ had in one of our fun exchanges before the game:

You were right about the Giants winning and congradulations. Enjoy it.

This is the year. We put our failures in the past, it's a new year, a new defense. It's time to prove to the league that the Patriots are back and aren't going anywhere and they will be the last ones standing in Feb.
Update: Well that didn't work out as I had planned. Next year baby, next year 19-0 we go. Next year.

I did not read or was in on that thread later..(I think..maybe at the start of it all...)...I do know in words (From the stands)..I listed all the positions and how the Giants were only at an advatage in a few places...but I also outlined a bit about how the Giants could win.... Pressuring Brady...slowing down the game..keeping the Pats off the field..long drives running game..(Keys...)
The Giants did what they needed to do..the Patriots could not..and even with the Pats taking the lead, it was a Manning drive that won it for them...Congrats!!

Thanks for the graciousness. Hell of a win, the Ginats earned it. Congrats.

I just ran into a friend of mine who I expected to gloat like no other, because he was trash talking SO much before the game. But he was just filled with joy and he was totally magnanimous toward the Patriots. Just the look on his face made me happy for him. I thought that that is how I must've looked and felt 6 years ago. It's hard to begrudge him that. And the Giants, unlike some others (cough: Colts, Bolts: cough), are a hard team to dislike.

Yup, the better team won that game. The GMen played out of their skulls, out executed and out coached the Pats. Congradulations on a very deserved championship.

I don't believe I posted in that thread but just the same.....

The Giants outplayed the Patriots. The team that played better won.

Yankees suck! (I had to add that. )

Congrats! Your team is the best in the NFL. no doubt. Giants deserve it. Thank you for shattering the "emperor's new clothes- perfect season - greatest team" nonsense. If it is to happen in the future the team obviously needs to be of a higher caliber than that of the 2007 pats (great offense and all).
