Peyton's not in that league yet. It's not a Favre until you've honked 3 playoff games.

[DanMcQ]

Lest we forget he honked a couple against the Patriots before he won his Super Bowl.

Kudos to Sean Payton for the onside kick to start the second half that turned the tide for good.

James Carville on the field for the celebration.

[DanMcQ]

My God man, must you bring politics into EVERYTHING

Give it a rest!

[jerseyhoya34]

I just thought it was awkward to see an alien on the field. Anyway, a good Super Bowl but not better than when the Giants beat the Pats.

Partying in New Orleans! Who Dat!

Great for New Orleans and anyone who tears the heart out of the bandwagon Queens fans deserves to bring home a trophy.

Manning bolted off that field quickly--wonder if we'll have to hear about a lack of "class" like we did when Brady actually shook hands but abruptly left the field. Personally I could care less--but when the Dungy CULT aka the media made a big deal of it, just thought it should be brought up again.

Speaking of Skeletor--wonder if "Father of Year" aka "Mr NFL" will speak up about his outrageous prediction---which much like everything else this arrogant SOB does is WRONG. Dungy is seen as this "perfect guy" and in fact he's a edited who acts superior to all of mankind and sells books about what a great father/person he is and what one should be. I never would claim to be one--and quite proudly am NOT--but never in my life would I tell someone how they should parent/or do anything else. I'll disagree but people have right to do what they want and seeing Dungy who I will refrain from using the ultimate source of fact about his arrogance as a human being; eat crow and look like the clown he is--so sweet.

Congrats to YOU Hoyainspirit, and to Greg Monroe and all the other NOLA alumni!

Exciting game! Drew Brees is the man!

At least HANK BASKETT is famous for being a Super Bowl goat and not just for having a edited for a wife that traded her dignity by edited an 80 year old man (Hugh Hefner) to get famous. Great job Hank. I knew you had it in you. At least now someone may tune in to your God awful "reality" show where you and said edited live the "good" life.

Best commercial: Dave, Oprah, and Jay.

Hats off to Sean Payton for having major balls all day. It backfired on him at first, but he stuck with it and it won his team the game. The onside kick completely changed the game, and the challenge on the 2 point conversion later was also huge.

[HoyaFanNY]

i'm with RDF, screw that fraud dungy and his idiotic prediction. he should realize that he and his god manning have only the one ring before he trashes a coach and qb that have 3. his flat out jealousy of the pats is beyond pathetic.

There were NO good commercials, but I suppose you might call this the best of a very bad lot. (Some "behind the scenes" of that ad.)

Google had a very effective commercial, IMO, but that's about it. (Oh, and I did laugh at the little kid telling the guy to keep his hands off his momma and his Doritos.)

I thought there was one really good movie trailer that made me want to see a movie, but then it was ruined at the end by two things: 1. They told us it was written and directed by M. Night Shyamalan, 2. They named it "The Last Airbender," for some completely ridiculous reason. At which point I said....."Nope."

I thought the game was pretty boring too, but it picked up in the second half. Giant onions on Sean Payton. As has been mentioned previously, that was the game changer. The pick 6 was merely the nail in the coffin.

Haha, well said Boz. I agree wholeheartedly with your thoughts on the movie trailer -- my first thought while watching that preview - "wow, this looks kind of awesome," then I see M. Night Shamalamadingdong and think, "they are still bankrolling this dude after all his bombs?" then i see the title and it is basically awed silence at the stupidity of whomever named it.

[rosslynhoya]

They couldn't very well name it Avatar, could they?

It's a live action rendition of a semi-popular anime.

The new Robin Hood with Russell Crowe looks like it'll be worthwhile. Prince of Persia looks much worse than Airbender.

Spoken like a true NE fan.

I'm probably not the ideal person to ask, since I rarely go to movies anyway. But I find it hard to believe that advertising a movie that won't come out until the summer is really worth $3 million of airtime. I think it was Wolfman that I noticed. People who go to movies are very likely to be cognizent of when a movie comes out. I just don't think that enough people will make the mental note that "I want to be sure and see Wolfman when it comes out in 3 or 4 months" that wouldn't otherwise see the movie anyway. Similarly, I think that car manufacturers are wasting their money. But at least there a handful of additional sales will add up quickly. Lastly, the beer companies are really the ones that stand to benefit. It's all about distinguishing your product in a very crowded market. As usual, I think that Bud Light got it's name out there enough to effectively do so.

As for my personal favorites, like Boz mentioned, I loved the Doritos ad with the little black boy telling the guy to keep his hands off his momma and his Doritos. Also, I like the Snickers ad with Betty White and Abe Vigoda.

I don't think he's particularly jealous of the Pats, since he knows those rings were all won through rampant cheating/industrial espionage. Once the cameras stopped rolling...well, there went the Pats "dyansty."
