Well I’ve been eating crow all week and finally decided to admit it. The New York Giants brought it and were the better team by far. I was amazed how flat the Patriots were and we talked about the Super Power all year long and BOOM!!! — they explode.
I can’t understand how you play so emotionless in a Super Bowl. I’m not a Giants fan by any means for selfish reasons, they cost me a World Championship ring and we ran out of time in Super Bowl XXI, that’s all.

Ahhhhh, they were the better team that day too and Phil Simms made a career day out of one game. Can you tell I’m still bitter, yep!!
O.K. I’m over it…………..HALL OF FAME.
Randy Gradishar, boy was I excited that this might be the year for a “CLASS ACT” of a man to get in. I admire him. I was a rookie his last year in the league and he was a true leader in the locker room and on the field. It was great to practice against guys like him as they prepared you for what you’d see in the league as a young player. He had an incredible mind for where the ball was going to be and the at the goal line; remember him meeting the running backs in the air, pure poetry in motion.
Big Gary Zimmerman (Zim), needs no introduction. Arguably the best left tackle to play the game. When I was in Tampa, we use to get tape on him when he played for Minnesota so we could watch the techniques he used. He had such great body control and balance it was amazing. It’s kind of hard to explain. He was never out of control, always well balanced in his stance, on the move, great feet (fast) rock solid hands and super quick hands at hand-fighting the defensive player….need I say more? Let’s just go with Superman.
Congrats Gary!

Amazing what a front seven can do for a ballclub.
I knew by the end of the second quarter who was winning the battle at the line of scrimmage.
“Poetry in motion”,,,, great quote,,,,we really need to get some clips on of Randy, the young-uns have no clue how truly great he was.
There were a lot of reasons to pick the Giants in the superbowl. Thye were playing great for one reason and the Pats are full of disrespectful rats like randy moss. Can you believed he dished on jerry rice!!!!
Congrats to Zim on getting in, i’m sure Randy will follow soon. I sure hope the Broncos focus on the line play this off season. personally , i think lineman don’t get the credit they deserve. we all know the giant d-line was just a much the mvp of that game as eli manning. Their o-line didn’t play too shabby either. You can get away with not having great players at other postitions but you can’t hide bad line play nor can you win championships.
That was a fun game to watch. Maybe the Broncos can do that next year.
Superchop, you hit the nail on the head about the line play.
imready, your right but I still picked the Pats because the Giants robbed me of a World Championship ring in 1986 and yea, yea, a little self serving, I know, can’t help it.
Tom Brady showed he was an average quarterback under pressure. When you only have 20 sacks all year you can stand back there and pick people apart. They had 5 in the Superbowl and, guess what? Brady wasn’t the superstar he was all year……..”pressure.”
The Giants O-line should have got the MVP award….;O) biased as I am. You have to be happy for Eli with all the criticism he’s taken in The Big Apple, tough place to be a QB……………kinda like here? after #7.
Want to hear something funny? During the Superbowl interviews Harry Carson comes on and is interviewed. I forget where I was and I’m thinking to myself, wow Harry’s looking a little old these days…….and then…..I’m thinking yea and I played against him and started laughing. What’s funny is I don’t feel old it’s the ole body wearing out.
Anyway, off-season’s in full swing and I just got back from the Bahamas for my birthday (48) bonefishing with a Bahamian Legend, Crazy Charlie Smith. The term crazy because he invented a fly that is still used today all over the world. It was named after him and it’s called the crazy Charlie because it catches bonefish like you’ve never seem. He’s on Andros in the middle bight on a island called Pot Cay.
I have a permit article coming out in a new national fishing magazine called Traveling Sportsman. I’ll keep you up to date when it hits, in case you like to fish and I may do an article on Crazy Charlie. I’m talking to a couple of magazines (my hobby) on the side of selling real estate.
Stay Tuned!!!

P.S. If you have a minute, I’m going on the mile high report radio show next Wednesday (Feb 27th) to talk about the offseason, so tune in. I’ll post more info on that before the show so you know how to listen or call in if you’d like.
You’re into fishing, huh? You should try Alaska salmon and halibut if you haven’t already. I run a sportfishing lodge in SE Alaska and it amazes me still what we pull out of the Big Water, sometimes!!
