Playoffs Week 2 - Superburrl II
Sunday 11th January 2009
Meadowlands, East Rutherford, NJ
Philadelphia Eagles 23
New York Giants 11
Surprising as it may be to you the act of pulling has never been my forte. (It's cool though, I'm good at other stuff. Like... Settlers of Catan. Yeah. I'm pretty skilled at Catan.) Anyway, I know the fairer sex pretend to adopt the moral high-ground and say they prefer a 'smart guy' who's not that bad looking. A 'decent person' with a winsome smile is what females supposedly pine for - I don't buy any of that shit. Most girls dig arrogance and plenty of it. In this case, I can only assume that the New York Giants must be rolling in fuzz. (How fitting Modest Mango's resident stud should be their fan.) In fact, the people of New York are so arrogant when it comes to their "World Champion" football team, they seemed genuinely offended when Philadelphia actually turned up for their playoff game in Meadowlands.
New York have demanded 'the respect they deserve' all year, astounded by the temerity of teams such as Philadelphia, Cleveland or Dallas who have stolen wins. Nevertheless, even these performances didn't damage Tom Coughlin's ego or sense of invincibility. But here's the caveat, New York ended up believing they were actually bulletproof. So much so that their top receiver actually shot himself in the leg. (Big LOL) It turned out to be a turning point for the season...
For Philadelphia it has been a season of perpetual struggle. Amongst a division of playoff heavyweights, they crept into the last week somehow still having a chance of reaching the postseason, despite a tied game against the Bengals, heartbreaking losses to the Redskins (twice) and a crippling inability to move that ball past the 1-yard line. But then both Chicago and Tampa lost and Philadelphia took a big, steamy dump right on top of the Cowboys at the Linc. A predictable playoff win followed against the Vikings and here we were, in a winner-takes-all scenario.
In a tough, punishing, brutal football game the Philadelphia Eagles eventually gained the advantage at the line of scrimmage, squishing and squashing the G Men until they had nowhere to go - much in the same way Burr squishes and squashes his chicken sandwiches. New York didn't look like winning the entire second half and in a resounding triumph Burr defeated Ports, becoming our Superburrl II Champion. Can't wait to see you guys February 1st for the Super Bowl, and hopefully, the Philadelphia Eagles will be there too!
