Since it's Super Bowl Sunday, we'll get our pregame going a little early, too.

Given that the game is on NBC, over/under on how many times Rodney Harrison will have to watch himself get posterized in David Tyree "Helmet Catch" replays today?

Whatever happens today in the Super Bowl, let's take a moment to remember the less fortunate.... Jet fans

Including the pregame shows? Over/under is 7.5 Would be funny for Tyree to come in to the studio and take Harrison's chair away from him.

They could play a highlight reel from bradys career but there's only four hours of pregame.

I'd rather they show four hours of Gisele in swimwear.

SO having ignored ESPN all week, is Gronk gonna play or not?

My bookie is giving money back up to $200 if your first touchdown scorer bet doesn't win but ends up getting the first TD in 2nd, 3rd or 4th quarters.

So all in on Gronk if he's playing, otherwise split Cruz, Nicks and Welker.

Myra's painting will be in the Patriots locker room.

 

[Avery]

Faulk inactive... kinda surprised by that.

 

[PlasmaDogPlasma]

Faulk inactive... kinda surprised by that.

The guy has 17 carries and 7 receptions on the season and the Patriots have 3 other talented backs in BGE, Ridley and Woodhead.

 

[Avery]

Understood, but I thought with Gronk being gimpy, Bellichek might have him active as a reliable vet for some underneath routes.

 

[biggamer3]

That piece nbc did on Steve Gleason was so damn sad and uplifting at same time, god bless that man

 

[johnnycakes]

Love how Aaron Rogers just threw the Giants under the bus for faking injuries when GB was trying to speed up the game.

 

[flapgreen]

Let's do it!

 

[flapgreen]

I don't see how anyone who didn't grow up as Pats fan could pull for them. Go Giants!

Why wouldn't you? They are a classic example of how to get it done in a salary cap era!

Britney Payton be fine!

 

[BigSteelThrill]

woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!

game time beyotches!

 

[rockaction]

Whoa, Kelly Clarkson. A good National Anthem? Before the Super Bowl? What gives?

 

[dgreen]

The crowd sounds weak.

 

[ffldrew]

Is this the ref with the reputation for throwing the most holding flags?

 

[Osaurus]

Goober cam!!!

 

[dgreen]

I don't see how anyone who didn't grow up as Pats fan could pull for them. Go Giants!

Redskins, Cowboys, and Eagles fans might disagree with you.

 

[Ministry of Pain]

Good luck to both teams, it's been so long since either has played in a Super Bowl.

 

[Osaurus]

Turrible commercials so far

 

[PizzaDeliveryGuy]

I don't see how anyone who didn't grow up as Pats fan could pull for them. Go Giants!

Not much of a gambler, eh?

 

[rockaction]

Two tight-end set right there then three-wide and Beckum in the slot.

Lots of two tight end sets and two RB sets for the Giants against Frisco.

Another one.

 

[Ministry of Pain]

Giants look like they are going to eat up at least 5 minutes to start, can't run the ball but they already got a couple receptions from Pascoe and Ballard.

What a grab by Nicks

 

[GregR]

Horrible blocking by the WR.

 

[rockaction]

Cruz and Ware both whiffed blocks. The Patriots defensive line is flying to start out.

And it's Donnie Darko and 80's moody synth.

 

[Ministry of Pain]

Almost a Safety...should have been a safety

 

[netnalp]

wow safety!

 

[rockaction]

Wow. Did they just call that?

 

[identikit]

safety!

Someone won a big prop bet there.

 

[Ministry of Pain]

Who had Giants defense for 1st score of the game? 100:1 at least...

Giants held the ball 6 minutes, punted deep into New England territory, Brady has the ball 1 play and they turn it over on a safety!!!

Things could not be going better for the Giants.

2-0!

 

[rockaction]

Where's the safety/tuck rule?

After further review, we've decided that the rulebook interpretation of intentional grounding...

They could have scored a TD on their first drive and intercepted Brady on his first play. That would be better.

 

[Andrew74]

Choker

 

[Pots]

Stupid play by Brady

 

[GregR]

Great call by the refs.

 

[netnalp]

Brady should have run to his right.

 

[Ministry of Pain]

Bad tackling by the New England defense...how did they make it this far?

 

[Pots]

Pats look flustered after that. I expect a Giants score here.

 

[King of the Wolfies]

was the coin toss heads or tails?

 

[Ministry of Pain]

Pats seem to have 8 in the box...seems like at some point Eli is going to be able to go up top on a big pass play.

 

[GregR]

Pats seem to have 8 in the box...seems like at some point Eli is going to be able to go up top on a big pass play.

If they keep playing with 12 men, they can put 9 in the box next time.

 

[Pots]

12 man defense is a good playcall

 

[rockaction]

Pats are going for turnovers. I haven't seen them tackle a guy without a rip at the ball.

 

[netnalp]

CruuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ!

 

[Ministry of Pain]

Giants now have been on the field for almost 11:30 minutes, come away with a TD and a defensive score. Pats are now down by more than 1 score and have only run 1 play on offense. My My My
