review....
Superbowl XLVI, New York Giants at New England Patriots
in Indianapolis, Indiana!
Dinosaur Hand: Woo woo wooooo. Indiana rules.
Tom: In which, we will review the whole of the event, from coin toss to commercials to actual football.
D.H: Yup. How about all the football players singing “Did I ever tell you you're my Hero” to common folk...good commercial?
Tom: Sure. Fun, heart warming, cute. Good Hoosier stuff there. Then we go right into America the Beautiful, sung nicely with a country tilt by a couple of people I've never seen before in my life.
D.H: Is Indiana considered country?
Tom: I never thought so. Ask John Cougar Mellencamp. The National Anthem is a big song, sung big by Kelly Clarkson – backed by military drum corp and a bunch of kids.
D.H: She sing good. Okay, big coin toss, and Patriots win it!
Tom: They defer, no surprise there. Tee it up, let's get on with it!
D.H: Break! I liked the Hyundai commercial, with the Rocky theme song. Clever.
Tom: Whoops, missed the opening drive; Toby wanted to play with his squeaky ball.
D.H: I saw it...Manning sacked twice, and too far out for a field goal attempt...Giants kick it away. Tom: Hey, Audi has a headlight commercial with Vampires partying. Cool, kill 'em all! Elton John gets the big heave ho in a Pepsi ad.
D.H: Kind of weird that; why was he dressed up like a king?
Tom: Patriots give up 2 points on a safety – intentional grounding while in the end zone. Never seen that before. Sort of hard to explain.
D.H: Then the Giants put together a great drive...Manning to Cruz, Touch Down! (9-0).
Tom: Guess I'll have to try Bud Platinum. Naked M&M's, not funny. Stupid Coca Cola Polar Bear commercial.
D.H: Oh man! The Chevy truck Armageddon Ad, that was classic. Loved it!
Tom: Crap – Toby, Tami, an ear bud cord and a ring are all tangled up and it looks like trouble.
D.H: Time Out!
Tom: More ads: Impact tremors, Lexus, whatever.
D.H: Liam Neeson – Battleship movie preview, could be cool.
Tom: Giants force a 4th down, Patriots kick a field goal. (9-3).
D.H: Doritos as a bribe, burying a cat? Haha. G.E. Has some impressive shtuff: “they make the power that makes the beer.” Got it. The John Carter Disney movie doesn't look all that good.
Tom: I hope it is. Ooh, The Lorax; I remember the book. Ha, fat dog gets in shape to chase a VW bug. Nice.
D.H: Giants are contained, they kick it away. Patriots get a touchback.
Tom: Another polar bear commercial. Eh, not bad, Coke still sucks. Patriots punt again, 8 minutes left in 2nd quarter.
D.H: Now Giants punt, great punt! Ball on the 4 with 4 minutes to go.
Tom: Toby's out cold. Star Wars in 3-D. Woop-de-doo.
D.H: Patriots work their way out of the endzone.
Tom: Another super hero movie? Avengers, hmm. Sketchers ad, love that high jumpin' doggie. Brady continues to move the chains. Time out.
D.H: Bungee Baby Doritos! Wow, weee. Bruce Willis as G.I. Joe? Ridiculous.
Tom: Brady has all day to throw the ball, touch down, extra point. (10-9, N.E.) Halftime, Madonna.
D.H: Hey, that old broad still got some moves. Ooh ooh yeah. Hand jive.
Tom: 2nd half, New England comes back onto the field feeling strong, scores easily. (17-9).
D.H: Boring ads. Giants kick a 3 point field goal. (17-12), gotta hold 'em N.Y.
Tom: Injury time out: Fiat, sexy. Pepsi Max for life, eh. Toyota, reinvented...ooh. Polar bears, again? John Stamos and yogurt....Acura, Seinfeld, Leno and an alien (hahaha).
D.H: Brady sacked, 4th down, defense!
Tom: Budweiser, of course. Bridgestone quiet basketballs. Neh.
D.H: Oops, Giants fumble, they recover. Driving, nuts! 4th down, field goal. (17-15).
Tom: Brady breaks a tackle, throws down field to a gimpy Gronkowski...interception!
D.H: Giants can't convert, have to punt, 9:30 to go.
Tom: Kia, really? Monkeys?
D.H: ooh ah ah.
Tom: Patriots get ball, injury time out, more ads, 7:33, nice play, 1st down New England.
D.H: Stopped! Punt. Giants have the ball with 3:46 and one time out.
Tom: Cheese, what a throw, what a catch! 2 minute warning, Giants in field goal range...
D.H: The Puppy Bowl is on Animal Planet.
Tom: Change the channel back!
D.H: Giants running the ball, running down the clock. 1st down and goal, 1:07.
Tom: Touchdown! Bradshaw tries to stop before goal line, falls in for 6 points!
D.H: Going for 2, stopped. (21-17) with 57 seconds to go...exciting!
Tom: Yeah. Kick off, Patriots ball on the 20 yard line – 57 seconds to go 80 yards.
D.H: 2 passes by Brady, 2 drops. Brady sacked! Time out, egad!
Tom: 4th and long, 39 seconds. Brady breaks the tackle, throws - 1st down!
D.H: And another first down, spike ball to stop the clock, 17 seconds.
Tom: Penalty, replay 2nd down, 9 ticks.
D.H: No catch, 3rd down, Hail Mary throw to the end zone....
Tom: oh jeez...
D.H: No play, ball in the air, on the ground, game over!
Tom: Wow.
D.H: Giants win the pennant, Giants win the pennant!
Tom: Wrong sport, different team, you goob.
D.H: Oh. Can I go to bed now?
Giants win 21 – 17.
