A Tale of Two Mannings

Perfection lasted for 18.990 games -- until just 35 seconds remained in Super Bowl XLII, and Eli Manning's pump-fake-corner toss to Plaxico Burress salvaged the perfect legacy of the 1972 Dolphins.

The highlight for me (other than the brilliant Audi commercial in the first quarter, and the Terminator T-800 model beating up the annoying Fox Sports robot) was seeing Eli's big brother Peyton leap up in pure joy when the Giants took the lead in the closing seconds. Now THAT is a role model worth emulating!
