Finally, New York chalks one up against Boston and they did it in the grandest sports event of all.
The New York Giants scored a stunning upset of the heavily-favored New England Patriots, 17-14, for the Super Bowl championship. The Giants were 12-point underdogs.
QB Eli Manning did a Tom Brady as he led the Giants to a last minute 12-play, 83-yard drive capped by a Plaxico Burress' 13-yeard touchdown reception.
Tom Brady still had 35 seconds and three timeouts to mount a signature comeback, but New York's stifling defense was just too much to overcome.
The Patriots ended their historic magical dream season with an equally historic nightmare.
