Reminiscing About The Miracle







“It was just a great catch by David Tyree. I found a way to get loose, and just really threw it up. He made an unbelievable catch and saved the game.”
Eli Manning



I was thinking today about the Super Bowl, I saw David Tyree in an interview. I still can't get over to this day! Eli Manning, what a hero. Justin Tuck was the Super Bowl's big time impact player. Did I leave anybody out? Oh yeah, there is that guy, whats his name? Oh yeah, David Tyree, for who without him we may not even be talking about this but rather our undefeated Patriots. Catch 42, that is my favorite name for the catch. How is it that an already fired coach, a bum for quarterback, and all was loss. Boom, 3 straight road playoffs victories, and the super win in Arizona. Man, who can ever imagine. How did they pull off the upset? Well lets take a big look at the big picture, they got to the quarterback and ran the ball well. They made the right moves. Jerry Reece, what a team he put together. Ahmad Bradshaw, what a steal. Kawika Mitchell, what a nice piece to the puzzle. Kevin Boss, what a great fill in, when Jeremy Shockey got hurt he filled in so well that he may have forced Shockey out of town. How did they do this? Eli was MVP and things just fell the right way that night. Me and my buddies, sat in the same seats the whole night, you got yelled at if you moved or left the room. Man, that might have been the happiest house in Vermont, we were vacationing. Everybody at the house was rooting for the Giants because they hated on the Patriots and their arrogance. Some guy in a liquor store had teased me and my buddies about how the Giants were gonna get killed. We went back the next day and he had the place closed up. Giants, what a team. They won, they really won. Maybe we can repeat, and start a dynasty. How did they do it?
