is this actually happening?!
Giants beat the Pats in the Super Bowl and the Mets officially snagged Johan for basically nothing: it's a good time for New York sports. I've grown up cautious, though, when it comes to my teams (most especially the Mets) because good things never seem to last (read: 2007 meltdown). But there's nothing more to worry about with the Giants and I'm so proud of Eli for his MVP. The way he broke that tackle! The catches from Plax (so textbook) and Tyree (so badass)! Tom Brady, biggest fucking annoyance in the entire world, getting sacked 5 times (compared to 24 in all the games leading up to the Super Bowl)! The Giants really deserved this one -- especially after such a thrilling playoffs. Eli came into his own and oh my GOD the clips Fox showed of Peyton watching the game? I want to hug him. So much.
After we won we all took a victory lap around campus and it was so joyful to rub it in all those New Englanders' faces. God, I hate New England sports. I think I may actually almost hate the Sox more than the Yankees.
Now the Mets have a desperately-needed amazing pitcher and Spring Training starts in 11 days. I can't fucking wait. :) I am suck a dork.
