Instead, Tom Coughlin and Eli Manning once again bested Bill Belichick and Tom Brady, with Manning executing yet another fourth-quarter [...]
Alec Baldwin famously said “Coffee is for closers” in the movie “Glengarry Glen Ross,” and when it came to Super Bowl 46, he couldn’t be more right. The Patriots couldn’t close. I have had a couple days to digest, and I am like many Patriot fans, I’m ready to move on. I wanted to reflect [...]
Rob Gronkowski and Matt Light were caught on camera partying shirtless on stage with LMFAO at the Patriots after-party just hours after losing the Super Bowl on Sunday night/early Monday morning. Is there anything wrong with this picture? I have a few different feelings about this…

Kickoff between the Giants and Patriots begins Sunday night at 6:30 p.m. EST.
The New York Giants official website has committed this generation’s version of “Dewey Defeats Truman” by prematurely declaring the Giants as Super Bowl XLVI champions.
