Thanks for giving the Pats a free ticket to the Superbowl, Cundiff. Now, unless the 49ers make it, it'll be a boring game.

Eh, it's just that I think New England has been in enough Superbowls in recent years (New York has been in a couple, too). I get tired of seeing and hearing about the same teams/players all the time (which is the reason that I hate Tebow so much). If it turns out being Patriots/Giants, I doubt I'll watch the game. Not enough diversity and interest for me.
EDIT: Obviously I'll be rooting for New England if New York ends up going to the Superbowl. But, if San Francisco goes, I'll be with them.

LOL the funny part is I don't even think that 2 weeks of Pats/Giants coverage would come close to the Tebow media we got all year, or hell just last week before the Pats game. I do think a good chunk of NFL fans would agree with your assessment though
YEeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh hhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh hhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh Rematch!
At least my night will be free on February 5th. Won't feel inclined to watch the game. But, go Pats.
lets recap from sunday:
Giants Indy-bound after knocking off 49ers in OT
SAN FRANCISCO -- Lawrence Tynes booted the New York Giants into the Super Bowl again.
Tynes kicked a winning 31-yard field goal in sudden-death overtime, and the Giants beat the San Francisco 49ers 20-17 in the NFC Championship Game on Sunday night to reach its second Super Bowl in five seasons.
Eli Manning and the Giants will face the New England Patriots in Super Bowl XLVI on Feb. 5 in Indianapolis, just as they did when they won it in 2008.
Tynes also kicked the game-winning field goal in overtime at Green Bay in the 2008 NFC title game that put the Giants in the Super Bowl.
Devon Thomas put the Giants in position. He recovered his second fumble of the game after Jacquian Williams stripped the ball from Kyle Williams, the 49ers' fill-in return man.

Brady, Patriots bound for Indy after beating Ravens
Tom Brady has the New England Patriots back in the Super Bowl. And they'll see a familiar opponent.
The Patriots beat the stunned Ravens 23-20 in the AFC Championship Game on Sunday after Baltimore's Billy Cundiff missed a 32-yard field-goal attempt with 11 seconds remaining in Foxborough, Mass.
Brady scored the winning touchdown when he leaped over the vaunted Ravens defense in the fourth quarter. The 1-yard dive brought the Patriots from behind, and their maligned defense made several key plays, including shutting down Ray Rice, the league's total yardage leader.
"This team really overcame a lot, and they fought hard all year," Patriots coach Bill Belichick told NFL Network's Michael Lombardi after the game. "It wasn't always perfect, just like today. We had our moments, but they hung in there and they fought hard. I'm happy for the players. They did a great job today."
Next up as the Patriots chase their fourth Super Bowl trophy in Brady and Belichick's tenure in New England are the New York Giants, who defeated New England 17-14 in Super Bowl XLII in Glendale, Ariz. This Super Bowl will be held Feb. 5 in Indianapolis.
