1st Quarter: Giants Set SB Drive Mark

File Under: Eli Manning, Super Bowl XLII, longest drive, Giants Patriots

QB Eli Manning and the Giants took the opening kickoff and drove into the Super Bowl record book.

It's not a record that's easily found, but in holding onto the ball for the game's first 9:59, the Giants set the NFL mark for the longest drive by clock time in Super Bowl history. Manning helped set it by converting four third-down situations, three on completions.

The team they took the record f… More

XLII: Warmups Done, Inactives Announced

File Under: Super Bowl XLII, University of Phoenix Stadium, George Toma, Giants Patriots

My perch at University of Phoenix Stadium for Super Bowl XLII is in the auxiliary pressbox, midway up the upper level of the place, off what I think is the southwestern corner of the field. It should be off the near right end zone as you watch on the TV screen. Just thought you'd like to know.

Man Bites NY Dogs in the AZ Desert

File Under: Super Bowl XLII, Big Daddy's, Duncan Browne, Eddie Borne, Helen Dillon, Phoenix Arizona

Saturday is a day of media darkness at the Super Bowl, a day of relative rest. Which meant I finally had a chance to take a drive and see some sights around the Valley of the Sun.

I had a specific destination in mind in western Phoenix and I wanted to get there by noon. To get there I had to pass such tempting stops as Burger Factory, Mariscos Chihuahua and Federico's and motor straightline alon… More

3 Jets Get Revved Up by Super Scene

File Under: Jerricho Cotchery, Leon Washington, D'Brickashaw Ferguson, Super Bowl XLII, Phoenix

It's called Radio Row. It was created by the NFL in the Nineties when sports talk radio mushroomed in every major league city around the country and all those shows needed space at the Super Bowl venue. So their tables and equipment and banners were placed in a row in some long, narrow area of the media center at each Super Bowl venue.

In Phoenix for SBXLII, Radio Row has become Radio Square, and… More
