Today, American football takes center stage as Super Bowl XLII clogs the television airwaves pitting the New England Patriots against the New York Giants. And even though the Madden Bowl festivities have all but come and gone (though, Play & Win is still trucking along), you can still celebrate XLII by cruising the Super Bowl Madden simulations (hint: Patriots can't lose) and possibly play some Madden 08 to get into the football mood. And for those who aren't about watching the jock on jock spectacle, then we say celebrate the Super Bowl your own way. Pop in your favorite 360 game of choice, gorge on salty sweet snacks, order a pizza (or six) and gawk at the million dollar commercials that will be aired. Kickoff is at 6:18PM eastern (how very specific), so make tonight an event however you choose. Just be sure to keep positive thoughts of the Patriots scoring every drive in the back of your head ... that's all we ask.

i love how the eagles fans call them "cheaters" im not a patriots fan im actually a chargers fan, but i think both teams deserve to be in the Super Bowl in the end. The patriots have played amazing football and have been lead by an amazing coach, and the giants are just luck MF's but we will leave that alone.

@ Josh...because the Patriots HAVE cheated in the past and they constantly have rumors of further cheating around them..
I'm a cowboys fan, but I'm rooting for the Giants...sure they're the team that knocked us out, but I despise the Patriots

Josh- What are you talking about "the past?" They were most recently caught filming other teams' signals September of THIS SEASON?!!?

I remember the whole story of them "cheating".
I'd say pretty much any team has the ability to look at other teams pattern of calling plays. It just makes your defense that much more prepared.
And if that's cheating, then by God it's the most honorable and intelligent kind of cheating there is.
