Giants Win Super Bowl, Manning Named MVP

New York mounts comeback on final drive to beat New England.

INDIANAPOLIS – The crowd was eerily quiet as Eli Manning and the Giants took over for one last drive in the final four minutes of Super Bowl XLVI. Like he’s done countless times during the 2011 season, Manning made a series of precision passes – five to be exact, including a 38-yard out route to Mario Manningham that sparked the drive – and set New York up inside the 10-yard line. Ahmad Bradshaw finished the drive with a 6-yard touchdown run that capped a 21-17 Giants victory over the New England Patriots at Lucas Oil Stadium Sunday night. Manning, who was 30-for-40 passing, threw for 296 yards and one touchdown, earning his second Super Bowl MVP award against the Patriots. “We moved the ball down the field, and Eli [Manning] made some …

Trophy Another New Jersey 'Super' Export

Just like the Giants, the Vince Lombardi Trophy is a product of the Garden State.

When you're watching the Super Bowl on Sunday night, the team that calls the Meadowlands home won't be the only New Jersey export on display. What is it? Here's a hint: It takes numerous skilled craftspeople and about four months to complete, and millions of people will have their eyes glued to it on Sunday. And it's made nearby—right here in New Jersey in Parsippany. The Vince Lombardi Trophy that will be passed around by either the New York (we know it's really New Jersey) Giants or New England Patriots after winning the game's most important contest was produced in Morris County, crafted in the Tiffany & Co. workshop. So, while you feel Jersey pride watching Big Blue's tough defense and Eli Manning-led offense, you will know that they …

Hey Michael...I guess you aren't a Giants fan. First, what's wrong with the being named the Giants? Is the Jets nickname any better? How about the Eagles? All I care about is what happens on the field. For your info, the Giants have won three Super Bowls, the Jets one and the Eagles zippo. Second, as Greg pointed you got the venue of the game wrong. I don't think Big Blue is lame...Go Giants!!!   more ›
