Third time’s a charm, huh? Favre played like anything but a legend against a beleaguered secondary, and the result is that another Manning will take a snap for the second straight Super Bowl. Some night for Lawrence “Hey FOX, don’t call me Larry – if you bother to interview me” Tynes, huh? (Back-to-back texts after the Giants kicked shanked the potential game-winner in regulation: “Is he fired yet?” followed by “He should never set foot in NYC again, for his own safety.”) Marble mouth vs. the Pretty Boy. The early line is 14, but it appears to have nose-dived to 13 already. The over/under was 55 and heading south as well.

Faced with a lose-lose – two weeks of Favre/Brady slurping or two weeks of Giants garbage here in New York – here’s the end result: yet another New York-New England showdown. Barf.

Back Monday with some politics, movies, and probably, sports.
