On The Fans Watching Tonight's SB XLII

It's now 12:05 to the Alleged Kickoff Time on FOX. Joe Buck & Troy Aikman will report the action, or talk about everything but what's going on(It'll be just like Buck & Mc Carver on WS CIII & Before That)@ SB XLII:

I have my name in 2 Super Bowl Pools-One @ Professor Thom's, a Well-Known Red Sox Watering Hole in The East Village in Manhattan(219 2nd Avenue To Be exact) & @ Richmond Hill Moose Lodge#14, in Queens. Both are small wagers;

& the fan bases are not homogeneous in both the NY Metro Area, nor in New England, especially in Boston(If Drinkwater, The President Of Giant Glass, who sits next to Kapstein @ Fenway Park, behind Home Plate is any indication as he's a Huge NY Giants Fan);

#1-NY Giants Games in the '50s & '60s, were televised all over NY & New England on various CBS Affiliates, so the NY Giants have a fan base in New England. The Dude you heard in the 1960s, most-often, was Frank Gifford;

#2-The NY Giants were selling out games when the Patriots struggled to make rent money;

#3-In NY, there are other factions, such as NY Jets Fans, who whine when the Jets Win Or Lose, like a bunch of Long Island North Shore Princesses, who most-often of today's Jets Crop, are Yankees Fans, like the INFAMOUS Bleacher Creatures. The Old Shea Stadium Variety Of Jets Fans, who tended to go for The Mets, are faded into a sunset;

#4-There's the Dallas Cowboys & Green Bay Packers Factions;

#5-Most will root for the Final Score in the Football Boxes, irregardless of team;

#6-The Red Sox-Themed Bars will make the most cash. The Hairy Monk will sell perfect pints of Guinness Stout, while Professor Thom's will sell kegs of Harpoon Thom's Ale;

#7-The NY Giants actually play in East Rutherford, NJ, while the New England Patriots play in Foxborough, MA, between Boston, MA & Providence, RI;

#8-How suburban a Super Bowl can you get;

In Boston, I see Game On Cafe & Cask N Flagon, getting packed houses by Fenway Park;

I look at today, this way-12 Days until Pitchers & Catchers report to their MLB Camp Bases in FLorida & Arizona;

Theo had a quiet winter while Omar just set the world on fire over Johann Santana;

In the Words of Jere of "A Red Sox Fan From Pinstripe Territory", he says "Go Neither Team";

I say "Go Score";

After today, it'll be 61 Days before you here Joe Buck on TV, when he utters the most-terrifying words in Baseball, namely "Joe Buck Here & will be joined in a Moment by Tim Mc Carver";

Yikes!
