Almost Perfect
The Patriots have to settle for close, but not close enough. The Giants completed an improbable run, starting the season 0-2 and making the playoffs as a #5 seed, wild card team to defeat the Patriots 17-14. An Eli Manning TD pass to Plaxico Burress with 0:35 on the clock was the difference in the game. This just further proves why they play the games. When the playoffs began, the vast majority wanted to hand the Lombardi Trophy to New England, go home and get ready for the draft in April. Biggest upset in Super Bowl history? If its not, its damn close.
Congratulations to the New York Giants.
Not a bad weekend for New Yorkers; you get a Super Bowl Championship and Johan Santana
Johan Santana: By The Numbers
It just came across the news that MLB starting pitcher, Johan Santana, whose trade from the Minnesota Twins to the New York Mets was contingent on a renegotiation of his current contract just signed a brand new 7 year - $150 million contract. A contract which surpasses the contract Barry Zito signed (7 Years - $126 million) with the San Francisco Giants, last year, by a measly $24 million. Beyond the outrageous dollar amount as a whole. The breakdown per season comes to roughly $21,428,571 per season.
