jenny_wildcatDidn't realize it had been four days since I last posted.
The New York Giants just beat the Dallas Cowboys, which means that I am assured of at least one team to cheer for in the Super Bowl (Indianapolis lost to San Diego earlier today, which meant a cranky, grumpy, disappointed and "Don't-talk-to-me-I-will-tear-out-your- liver-and-make-you-eat-it" Wildcat). I was afraid that it would end up being a Patriots (who I hate with a passion unbridled)-Cowboys (who I also hate with a passion equally unbridled) Super Bowl. But I like the Packers and the Giants, so I don't care who wins the NFC championship. Brett Favre's got the talent, tradition and he's fun to watch. Eli Manning's been getting kicked around by the media and he's kind of a cutie (like his brother, Peyton ^_^). The Packers could probably take New England in the Super Bowl and the Giants nearly beat the Patriots a few weeks ago, so this love affair with the Pats is not going to last. Even better if San Diego takes them out next week (I don't really care about San Diego either way - except they've beaten the Colts twice this year, so their likability for me is in question).
I just think it would be fantastic if either the Packers or the Giants beat the Patriots in the Super Bowl. For Green Bay, the Packers kinda stunk last year and everybody thought Brett Favre was going to retire last year. But then they came out and had a great year and Favre (who should have been the league MVP, but the people who vote on this stuff all want to have Tom "N'Sync" Brady's baby. *vomit*) is back to being brilliant.
For the Giants, they're so much fun to watch when they're good, but they haven't been 100% all year. When they do bad, everyone writes them off and blames Eli Manning. When they do good, people just say it's a fluke and "wait-until-next-week-when-they-lay-another-egg." But they've been playing good the past few weeks, so we'll see.
For now, I'm laughing because Tony Romo hasn't won a playoff game. And Jessica Simpson wasn't even there to jinx it, so he doesn't have that excuse. What a dork. :P

PS, And a big note to the Jacksonville: I told my family that if you beat New England, I would have bought everyone Jaguars t-shirts when I got down there on my mission and you would have a whole new fanbase and we would have loved you. But nooooo... you had to go and let the no good classless Pats stomp all over you. Good grief, it's the PLAYOFFS for crying out loud! You want to WIN!!! You want to go to the SUPER BOWL!! (well, actually you want to go to the AFC Championship game and get beaten by the Colts -- but I'll be having words with them as well, so don't worry about that).
PPS, To the Colts: Do you know how sickening it's going to be to watch Philip Rivers go to Foxboro and be all starry-eyed and "Oh wow, we're in the AFC Championship game, this is so great. We're just happy to be here! What in the heck is a Super Bowl?" in giddy fanboy-mode? We don't want the New England Patriots to even GO to the Super Bowl. What part of DEFENDING SUPER BOWL CHAMPIONS don't you understand?!!! You don't freaking miss a catch on freaking 4th and whatever the heck it was!! YOU'RE PAID MILLIONS OF DOLLARS TO CATCH THE STINKING FOOTBALL!!! YOU'RE SUPPOSED TO GO TO NEW ENGLAND AND BEAT THE SNOT OUT OF THE PATRIOTS, NOT GET THE SNOT BEAT OUT OF YOU!!!! (*headdesk x 62 million*)
(And, because I am the Weepy Wonder, guess who got all pissed off and cried after the Colts lost? Guess who got teased by her parents and her brother? Whatever it is that makes me bawl when I want to kill somebody, I wish it would stop. It's embarrassing.)
PPPS, To the San Diego Chargers: Just leave. Please. Before I hurt you. Why don't you just go ahead and hand the Patriots the Vince Lombardi trophy already? Why is everyone in Southern California determined to make my football life as miserable as possible? (I'm lookin' at you, Oakland Raiders who just couldn't wait to trade Randy Moss to New England. That's like giving Lord Voldemort a new kind of Killing Curse that rubs salt in your paper cut as you die).
PPPPS, To the New England Patriots: Eat fish and DIE already!!!
