It's our Super Bowl Show today with Mike McCune of Channel 3 and Tom Haley of the Rutland Herald, but we will be talking about other stuff too.

George and I are tied in our football picks going into the last game. I'm going with the Giants 24-17. I just can't help to think that the Giants are better on paper and I'm sorry I just can't get past that Patriots defense.

I was born and bred in Massachusetts so I hope I'm wrong in this one and I'm rooting hard for my home team.

That being said the Patriots-Giants match-up isn't as much a Boston-New York thing as the media would lead you to believe. Heck the Patriots aren't even in Boston and the Giants aren't even in the state of New York, let alone New York City.

There are many Giant fans who happen to be Red Sox fans and many Yankee fans who happen to be Patriot fans. There are generations of Giant fans from Boston because they were fans before the days of the American Football League and especially before the days of the merger. Some of them stayed Giant fans and some switched to the Patriots.

Growing up for me found the Giants on one TV channel and the Cleveland Browns on the other channel. It was Chris Schenkel calling the games for the Giants and Ken Coleman calling the games for the Cleveland Browns. It seemed that most fans were Giant fans, but I was a Browns fan.

Anyway it's not Boston vs. New York in the technical sense, it's actually Foxboro, Mass. vs. East Rutherford, New Jersey.

Former Rice quarterback Chris McCormick, who spent a year at prep school, will be a preferred walk-on at the University of New Hampshire.

The UNH football has done pretty welll with Vemonters in the past. Burlington's Husain Karim and Muji Karim, Mill River's George Peterson and Tucker Peterson and Spauling's David Ball.

MSJ and Rutland go at it in boys basketball at MSJ's McDonough Gym tonight at 7:30. Even though Rutland and MSJ are now in different divisions they are both very good and the rivalry is stronger now than it was in MSJ's final few years in Division 1.
