New York has been taking by store by one Knick player. That person is Harvard graduate Jeremy Lin. Lin is only the 4th Asian-American to play in the NBA. He was cut by the Golden State Warriors and the Houston Rockets. He has had over 130 points in his 5 starts including a 3-point shot to pull the Knicks ahead of the Raptors with 0.5 seconds left just last night. He is a great story. Nobody knows if this is a trend or a fluke, but Jeremy Lin is just enjoying the ride.

New York! New York!
Last night, the New York Giants, as you well know, won the Super Bowl over the New England Patriots. The final score was 21-17. Eli Manning won MVP as he completed 30 of his 40 passes for 296 yards. Mario Manningham stepped up on the last possession with a huge catch. Bradshaw gave the Giants the lead with 57 seconds left. The Giants have won 2 Super Bowls in the last 4 years. Both wins came against the Patriots. Manning became the 11th quarterback of all time to win multiple Super Bowls while Tom Coughlin became the 13th coach to do just that. I was at Lucas Oil Stadium and it was just a great atmosphere. The city of Indianapolis did a great job getting this all ready. The Giants will return to New York today and will celebrate at the parade through New York City tomorrow.

Brawl in Indy
On Sunday, as you well know, the Giants and Patriots will go at it for the Super Bowl. Brady might deny it, but revenge is on his mind. This is a rematch of the epic 2007 Super Bowl where the Giants shocked the world. I will be at the game in Indianapolis. Gronkowski will most likely play, but will not be that effective. It will be a rough and tumble game. Deion Branch needs to play well in order for the Patriots to take home their 4th super bowl. Mario Manningham will need to step up. Cruz and Nicks are getting a lot of attention, but Manningham has played well this postseason. It should be a great game, but the Giants defense will wear Brady down. I am 7-3 with my playoff predictions and have gone 2-0 in the past with my Super Bowl picks.
