I still don't understand what the hell is going on most of the time but I still find it a mesmerizing game. No-one who saw Eli Manning struggle out of the tackle and then throw the ball 32 yards to David Tyree who then caught it one-handed with his helmet while falling backwards and managing to keep hold of it could say it is not a good game. I support the Giants (purely due to the fact that I chose to support all New York teams in American sports a while ago as it was the only place I'd been to twice so now support the Giants, the Rangers (who I was luckily enough to see at Madison Square Gardens),the Knicks and the Yankees(although I don't like Basketball or Baseball)) although I am supposed to be moving to the US soon to North Carolina so my affiliations may change!
