Super Bowl Madness
Generally I'm not a gambling man - but, for the Super Bowl - why not risk a few paychecks?
My bets:
Will the Giants beat the 12 point spread .. YES
Will a team score a Field Goal in the first Qtr .. OBVIOUSLY
Will the shorted Field Goal made in the game be over 24.5 yards .. YES
Will the Giants score a first half rushing TD ... OF COURSE
Will the longest TD scored be over 47.5 yards .. YES
Will the shortest TD of the game be longer than 1.5 yards .. YES
Will the Giants score first .. YES
Some bets have more $ than others (Giants beat spread, Giants score 1st half TD)

I think you hit all of them but two (not sure on the TD within 1.5 yds. I know one of the Patriots TD was in that vicinity. Impressive.
Pats had one from the 1 yard line .. DOH! .. so .. went 4 for 7, which is barely profitable.
What a game though - got to hand it to Eli, no longer in big brother's shadow. His is yearly net from marketing opportunities will skyrocket.
umm stop gambing plural paychecks pleazse makes me nervous
"Generally I'm not a gambling man"
Funniest statement. Ever.
I think Brian may have done about as well as the house did overall on this game, right? Quite the upset. Bummer that the Pats missed a perfect season, but the Giants deserve real credit.
Nice that Manning can get the "why isn't he his brother (or dad)?" naysayers off his back. Glad he played his own game and persevered. The team, too. NYTimes said after last season most people thought the Giants were irredemibly bad, bt that some key staff realized they add all the ingredients to pull things off.
