So, uh, who's not impressed with the game or the commercials so far?

Terry Monk · 02-03-2008, 07:33 PM

I don't think the commercials are all that great and both teams' offenses are playing like shit. IMO

Mark57 · 02-03-2008, 07:53 PM

The halftime show didn't suck TOO bad, there have been a few decent commercials, and a total lack of offense from both teams.

Terry Monk · 02-03-2008, 08:33 PM

Hmmmm..... 4th quarter is definitely picking up....

Flashy · 02-03-2008, 08:46 PM

Lack of offence because the defence has been playing well ... unfortunately, the Giants D is gassed right now because they've been playing balls out.

Mark57 · 02-03-2008, 08:57 PM

55 minutes of boring, 5 minutes of heart stopper, and now one of the biggest upsets of the year?

Terry Monk · 02-03-2008, 09:06 PM

Wow. Plain and simple, Wow.

Terry Monk · 02-03-2008, 09:08 PM

Ian, are you FINALLY happy now? Sheesh!

Mark57 · 02-03-2008, 09:09 PM

Yeah. Wow was about all I could come up with. Damn.

A lot of money just changed hands, I think.

Kevin T. · 02-03-2008, 09:14 PM

Wow, I thought it was an awesome game, and not just as a Giant fan happy with the result, which I am. I guess dominating defenses go unappreciated these days?

Terry Monk · 02-03-2008, 09:16 PM

Not that, it's just that it wasn't back and forth until the fourth quarter..... they commercials sucked.

Patricia · 02-03-2008, 09:16 PM

The Amped commercial was pretty funny. As the talking baby in the E-Trade ads. Everything else was either forced or just...very noncreative.

As for the Giants? HOT DAMN! I've not ever smiled this hard during the fourth quarter of a Super Bowl nor after as this one. HOT DAMN. Way to go!

Not unappreciated at all, but offensive shootouts are way more exciting. This definitely turned into a heart stopper at the end. The Giants defense did an amazing job stopping Brady all game.

Joy, beautiful spark of the gods,
Daughter of Elysium,
We enter fire imbibed,
Heavenly, thy sanctuary.

Be embraced, Millions!
This kiss for all the world!
Brothers!, above the starry canopy
A loving father must dwell.

Can you sense the Creator, world?
Seek him above the starry canopy.
Above the stars He must dwell.

I loved the Will Ferrell commercial.

Phaedrus49er · 02-04-2008, 04:46 AM

Offensive shootouts favor casual fans. Yesterday's game was great for hardcore fans. Personally, I loved the defensive dominance. It showed two balanced and well matched teams were on the field. Also, for one of the few times I've seen, the crowd actually seemed loud and interested in the game (previous games just had dull murmurs for crowd noise until the halftime show). A great game that won't go unnoticed because of some jackass halftime antics

as much as i'm sad - and physcially hurt (kinda got run over by a car) - that was a great game to watch. Giants D definitely showed up and took the heart from the pats O-line

jruck37 · 02-04-2008, 09:45 AM

The "Shaq as a jockey" commercial was pretty funny.

The game itself was off-the charts to me. Everyone here in Indy is nearly as excited as they were last year. Amazing.

Deserve · 02-04-2008, 12:31 PM

This has to go down as one of the best, most dramatic SB of all time. 4th quarter heroics, outstanding defensive plays. This game had it all.

Patricia · 02-04-2008, 03:29 PM

Forgot to mention the Iron Man spot. I REALLY liked that one.
