Not the game I want, but the game I've been given

Well, here we go again. The one match-up that I didn't want to see is going down. Baby Faced Eli Manning will face off against Tom Brady and the offensive powerhouse that is the New England Patriots. Again. Yawwwwwn.

As it might be clear to see, I am no fan of this battle. Or at least I wasn't.

My objection to this game isn't hard to guess and it isn't far from other critics'. For one it's a rematch. The story lines are pretty similar. The Giants scrapped through the season just to make it into the playoffs while the Patriots, essentially, breezed through all the way to the big game. Probably one of the NFC's greatest underdogs met up against one of the AFC's perennial favorites. Baby Eli stood up to a titan of the game in Tom Brady. This David and Goliath story turned out with an authentic ending. And Eli is hoping he can pull off another victory.
