Read Recently That I Enjoyed

One thing that i read recently that i enjoyed was the November issue of ESPN. There was a section in their that dealt with the New York Giants winning the super bowl. Going in to the super bowl the giants where a 24 point underdog. The odds of them winning where 24 to 1. They where up against a tough opponent. The New England Patriots where 18 and 0 through the season and including the playoffs. They where lead by pro bowler Tom Brady. With a real good wide receiver core lead by Randy Moss and Weiss Welker everyone thought that the Patriots would go down as undefeated and the best NFL team ever. Not until the Giants had something to say about that. Tom Brady was not under pressure the whole year. In the game the giants sacked Brady 7 times the most by any team. That was the more then he was sacked out of the whole year. People thought that the Patriots didn't have a weakness but the Giants found it and keyed on it. Giants ended up winning the game 31 to 24. The game might go down as maybe one of the biggest upsets ever.
