Just got back from Dallas. Spent 3 days down there.

So the 1st day I'm there I go over to the stadium to see if I can buy some playoff tickets. I politely ask the lady if she has any tickets left. She answers that they don't have any.

So I come back the second day and run over to the stadium, go to the box office and ask if they have any playoff tickets. I get the same answer. No tickets.

So today I go over and ask again if they have any tickets and the manager walks over to me and says, hey, weren't you here the last two days asking for Cowboy playoff tickets? I said ya. He said, don't you know the Cowboys were eliminated from the playoffs last Sunday?

I said of course I do, but I'm A Packer's Fan and T.O. promised me some. I just wanted to hear you guys have to say it over and over, no playoff tickets.:bowrofl:

The Crying Game
 
The Packers had everything required for a classic finish: the ball to begin overtime, a home-field crowd re-energized despite frigid temperatures and Brett Favre behind center.

But on the second play of overtime, Favre tried hitting Donald Driver on an out pattern he has thrown thousands of times. The ball sailed, and Giants cornerback Corey Webster stepped in front of Driver to intercept the errant pass at the Packers 43, taking it 9 yards before being stopped. Three plays later, Tynes kicked the game-winner.

Favre also had a chance to enhance his legend with 2:48 left in regulation when the Packers got the ball back at their own 17 with the game tied. But instead of authoring another made-for-Canton moment, he threw two incompletions and settled for a 5-yard pass to tight end Donald Lee well short of the chains on third down.

He (Manning) outplayed Favre by completing 21 of 40 passes for 254 yards, his third straight playoff game without an interception.

"I might be a hard guy to read sometime but right now I'm as happy as I can be," Manning said.

The passing game benefited from the way the Giants pounded the run with the 1-2 combination of Bradshaw and 264-pound brute Brandon Jacobs. Jacobs, who set the tone for the game by flattening Charles Woodson on his first carry, gained 67 yards on 21 carries and Bradshaw added 63 on 16.

The Giants' most pivotal drive came to open the third quarter when they ate up 7:04 and marched 69 yards on 12 plays to make everybody in the stadium feel a little colder. After Jacobs plunged in from 1 yard, he faked a Lambeau Leap.
