Crazy Train

Well, the crazy train ran straight through Glendale, Arizona tonight. Full steam ahead! I wanted the NY Giants to win. I always like to root for the underdog, and my dad always says that you should root for the conference or league in which your home team plays. We live in St. Louis, and the Rams are part of the NFC. Since, I was watched the game at my parents house, we rooted for the Giants. Follow my logic?

Earlier this week, I read an interesting take on the Brady vs. Manning debate. It was a piece in the New York Times Style section. I will be the first one to admit that Tom Brady is hot. I saw his interview on 60 Minutes and I liked his work ethic and his ambition. But, I was a little put off by his sense of inevitability. Maybe that's why he wins, because he believes that he will win every time he plays. I guess that didn't work out this time around. Kudos to Eli Manning and the Giants. This is the first time I really paid attention to the game and was genuinely interested in the outcome.
