Wrong team won, but it was still a great game. :)

Best Super Bowl in a long time.

I agree. I remember watching Eli Manning's dad, Archie, as quarterback at
Ole Miss. I attended a game in Oxford, MS during the 1960s. Don't remember
if he could pass or not, but he was an exciting runner. Really all over the
field. Would probably run 150 yards to make a 50 yard gain. What a legacy
with his sons.

Archie was a class act. Unfortunately, he played for an owner, John
Mecom, who was a complete and total moron and never gave him the tools
he needed to win.

I was at the game when Tom Dempsey, he of the club foot, kicked the 63
yard field goal. I almost missed it - my friend and I were walking
out of Tulane Stadium when they were setting up for the field goal and
we turned around in the entrance way to watch it. :)
