Giants Playoff Run is the Greatest Ever

won 3 road games against teams that were a combined 20-4 at home, and of course beat the undefeated team


Only run in another sport that I think comes close is when Arizona beat 3 #1 seeds in the 1997 NCAA tournament.

I've missed more than 9000 shots in my career. I've lost almost 300 games. 26 times, I've been trusted to take the game winning shot and missed. I've failed over and over and over again in my life. And that is why I succeed.

as far as calling the patriots the best team ever???

NO WAY!!! SORRY I WILL NEVER CALL THIS PATRIOT TEAM THE
GREATEST EVER..
BECAUSE #1...THEY DID`NT CLOSE THE DEAL
AND #2..YOU WANNA GET INTO AN ARGUMENT ABOUT THE
GREATEST TEAM EVER?? OKAY I HAVE ONE............
THE `79-STEELERS...THE FIRST TEAM TO WIN 4-SUPER BOWLS
WHO BY THE WAY BECAME THE FIRST TO WIN 14-GAMES
IN A 16-GAME SEASON THE PREVIOUS YEAR..THEY SET THE BAR
FOR WHICH 2-OTHER TEAMS RAISED(49`ERS-DALLAS) BY WINNING
"5",SOMETHING THAT PITTSBURGH FINALLY GOT 2-YEARS AGO.

SO PLEASE DON`T GO CALLING THIS PATRIOT TEAM THE GREATEST
TEAM EVER... I BELIEVE I OPENED THE DOOR FOR THE 9`ERS- AND

I will tell you one thing right now..........Out of Vince, Big Ben, and Rivers, I would give Vince just as good a shot as any of them at getting a ring first. I realize Ben already has one, but I am talking about starting next year. We all know Vince had a tough year, but we also all know that he tore it up his rookie season. You are like a lot of these Patriot fans. You jump on the Vince sucks bandwagon and then you will be running and hiding when he comes back next year and proves all you haters wrong. I am so sick of hearing the hating that goes on in here. It's guys like you that get off topic. I simply commented on the subject at hand and you get pissy because I said something you didn't want to hear. You are just mad because I said the Giants run was better than your beloved Steelers run. That is all there is to it. Don't be a freaking baby! I thought you Steeler fans were supposed to be tough!
