Lunatic Patriots Fans Put Eli Manning Effigy On A Spit And Roast It Over A Car
It would appear that a junkyard somewhere in the great state of New England put together this little slice of American pie that shows Eli Manning on a spit, being "roasted" by the "flames" of a "heaping wreck" of a Giants car after it had been destroyed by a Patriots Bronco. Give them credit, thou...
On Eve Of The Super Bowl, New England Releases Wide Receiver Tiquan Underwood

Massachusetts Thinks President Obama Should Root For The Patriots In The Super Bowl
According to the Massachusetts arm of Obama For America, a vote for the Pats is a vote for Obama. But if history is to be our guide, Obama should be pulling for the Giants. President Obama and a New York Giants vs. New England Patriots Super Bowl are inextricably linked. Think back to just four sho...
BenJarvus "Law Firm" Green-Ellis Was Actually Supposed To Go To Law School
The "Law Firm" nickname that's stuck to Patriots running back BenJarvus Green-Ellis triumphs over the average modern sports nickname—it's not based on his initials, or the first syllable of his last name, and it features an allusion to a milieu more buttoned-down than the NFL. (If that's your thing....

Which Guy In Bill Belichick's Inner Circle Is More Mysterious?
Because the Patriots are in the Super Bowl, and because Bill Belichick—admirably or otherwise—doesn't tell anyone about anything, the press corps has reasoned that it is high time to explore the mysterious dudes who work for him. One is Ernie Adams (left), the other is Berj Najarian (right)....

Victor Thompson, a resident of Laconia, N.H., gained some notoriety a few years back when he decided to tattoo the Patriots logo on both sides of his head before Super Bowl XLII. Four years later, with the Patriots back in the Super Bowl to face the Giants again, I was curious as to what Thompson's ...
Gisele Bundchen Sends Email
Gisele emailed some people about the Super Bowl, which her husband is playing in. One of those people forwarded it to the Post, which is how we got to where we are today.

Man Named Tom Brady Says Thing, Radio Station Reports
"I'm Tom Brady, I'm from Staten Island and I predict Giants will prevail," Tom Brady told some poor reporter at 1010 WINS who drew the short straw. When you're scraping the bottom of Rick Reilly's barrel for Super Bowl week stories, it's probably time to rethink things....

Here's To The Lovable, Impish Bill Belichick
There are two schools of thought on Bill Belichick. One is that he's a humorless football Jawa devoid of empathy or any animating purpose save destruction or creeping MILFs.

Bill Belichick Was Once A Starter Jacket Model
Bill Belichick has been so successful as the head coach of the Patriots, it's easy to forget he spent five years in charge of the Browns in the early 1990s. Or that four of those seasons in Cleveland ended with losing records, including '95, when the team more or less mailed it in after then-owner ...
ESPN Reports That Mike Vrabel Is Now Black And Filipino-American

Old man Gordy gave an interview the other...
