Giants “Fan” Doesn’t Know Mark Sanchez Plays for Jets
Not everyone is a football fan, and not everyone watches the Super Bowl, despite the overall agreement of it being an American holiday. Not everyone in New York is a Giants fan, and not everyone saying they’re Giants fans actually know what they’re talking about. Some people just like to join the celebration and the parades.

It’s OK to Feel Bad for Tom Brady
Maybe it was a post game picture, of Gisele and Brady. Something about the fragility of the moment, and of a hall of fame (in the future) quarterback, who did pretty well in the game, did pretty amazing during the regular season, but missed out on a fourth ring because receivers dropped passes. Wes Welker, with one huge drop, more than all.

On Luck, Manning and Indianapolis Colts Super Bowl Odds
Peyton Manning isn’t retiring, as far as we know, despite whatever Robb Lowe tweets.

Whoever does start for Indy at QB next season makes a big different for the odds makers in Vegas.

Jim Harbaugh and John Harbaugh are the first pair of brothers to serve as NFL head coaches in the league’s history.

Giants vs 49ers – Not the NFC title Game we Expected
The San Francisco 49ers, despite being the home team against the Saints, weren’t favored to win. Alex Smith and Vernon Davis came up as winners in an epic fourth quarter, and the rest is history. The New York Giants weren’t supposed to beat the Green Bay Packers and Aaron Rodgers in Lambeau, but Eli Manning and the G-Men are simply too hot to stop right now.
