Bundchen: 'If the Pats Lose, I'll Run Naked Through Mid-Town Manhattan'

Feb. 1, 2008

Winning isn't everything, particularly if losing means you get to glimpse Brazilian supermodel Gisele Bundchen striding naked down the Great White Way. A trip to the Super Bowl has suddenly presented the Patriots with an unexpected dilemma: a choice between a perfect record and beholding the perfect body, unclad and in motion.

In the aftermath of their 21-12 victory over the San Diego Chargers, Tom Brady's celebrated girlfriend startled onlookers by promising to run naked down Broadway in the unlikely event the Patriots lose to the Arizona-bound N.Y. Giants -- unlikely until the very moment she parted her full lips and made the surprise announcement.

Giants coach Tom Coughlin suspects there's more to Bundchen's announcement than meets the eye and detects a whiff of classic Belichick gamesmanship.

"Belichick is behind this, I can smell it. He wants us going into the game thinking his team is distracted and conflicted. First off, I'm not going to have the girlfriend of an opposing quarterback run naked on our home turf. Second, if Bill wants to play that game, fine. If the Patriots win, our offensive line will run buck naked through the streets of Foxborough. That's over 1,000 pounds of highly repulsive man-meat. Your move, Belichick."

Mmmmmm Humble Pie

Hey Bill! Where are you going? There's two seconds left!

Bwahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahah

Dear New England,

The Face of a Champion

Weighing the Options

by Ryan

So by my count there are three possible winners of tonight's Super Bowl:

1. Giants
2. Patriots
3. The Terrorists

However, I have a nagging feeling that a win for the Patriots is a win for the terrorists as well.

"Weellllkaaaaah"

Being a Bills fan on Super Bowl Sunday is always a difficult feat, but this year it will be especially trying. If there are two teams that I truly dislike, the Patriots and Giants are atop that list. The only thing worse then a Giants/Patriots Super Bowl would be a Cowboys/Patriots Super Bowl, and with that I would rather just shoot myself in the face and lay on the couch for three hours.

There are reasons for this dislike, you know; and that's what I'm here to cover today.

For the Giants, I happen to have this picture handy:



Wow. Wooooooow.

First of all, who in their right mind gets a Super Bowl XXV jersey customized to say "Wide Right" on the front? That's a $250 jersey to begin with, let alone the custom name plate to celebrate someone else's failure. Then factor in those custom license plates (How many cars did this guy go through? Does he work for the DMV?) and you've got a douchebag on almost unheard of levels.

Now I know most Giants fans aren't anywhere near this guy, but people like that certainly turn you against them, especially when you have a family friend that brings up the clock management of Bill Parcells in Super Bowl XXV at every gathering.

For the Patriots the rage may be a bit more obvious. I mean, have you watched a football game over the past few years? Watch one, any game with any two teams and the Patriots are going to be mentioned at least twice. They are that good, I will readily admit that. Still, it bothers the crap out of me that they are in our division, (why is every undefeated team in NFL history in the AFC East?!?) and the smug is at an all-time high.

Still, I will always have this picture to make me feel better:



I think that's his "Blue Steel".

So who do I want to win tonight? I really have no idea.

Well I don't want to see the terrorists win because that's just un-American. I think I wil end up pulling for the Giants, just because my Patriots rage really is that strong. There is something goofy about Eli Manning winning a Super Bowl trophy, giving hope to all boys who didn't speak until they were three years old.



Yeah, let's go with that. Enjoy the game, everyone.

$2.7 Million?! What a bargain?

By Jon

CBS says that a 30-second Super Bowl ad will cost $2.7 million dollars.

There's no possible way that 30-seconds can be worth $2.7 million, right? Terry Tate may say otherwise....




In other news, The Goose's Roost will gladly accept the same amount of money for an ad on our site.

He won't be smiling in two weeks

Somehow Elisha and his boys managed to pull one out in sub-zero Lambeau. Credit the Giants defense more than anyone I suppose, but Elisha didn't turn the ball over, either.

So anyways, the Super Bowl is on February 3. Hopefully, New York can hold off the Patriots for a few quarters like they did in Week 17...but does anyone really expect that? New England's going to come out flying on both sides of the ball.

I just hope the commercials are good.

LDT Lets America Down

Pats win and Schula's still bitter.

Here's hoping the Packers win today. May God have mercy on Elisha against New England if the Giants win on the road tonight.
