GIANTS: 23, PACKERS: 20... That’s what I call redemption. New York Giants placekicker Lawrence Tyne missed 2 consecutive field goals in the second half of tonight’s game against the Green Bay Packers...the last of which would have given New York a victory in regulation, and sparing it of having to go through overtime to meet its inevitable fate against the New England Patriots in Super Bowl XLII. But hey, Tyne followed through on his last field goal (a 47-yarder, which ironically was farther than the 43 and 36-yard attempts he missed in the fourth quarter)—which allowed him to breathe a sign of relief, and avoid getting himself tied to a field goal post in Green Bay’s minus-4 degree weather if New York lost. Just kidding. But God, I’d hate to live in the Northeast...unless it was the Big Apple. *Resists the urge to mention the Cloverfield monster here as a lame joke.* Back on topic, we’ll see if Eli Manning becomes the second Manning in two years to win the NFL championship. Probably not likely against Tom Brady, Randy Moss and Company... Not to state the obvious or anything.
By the way, I'm well aware that there were so many run-on sentences in the paragraph above. Oh well.
