For­give the once-a-year sports post: The New York Giants are in the Super Bowl! (Getty Images photo) That was one of the most dra­matic fin­ishes in league history.

They’ll be big under­dogs against the unde­feated Patri­ots, but that’s OK, we like it that way. I’ve been a Giants fan since I was 10, used to cover Giants Sta­dium and the Mead­ow­lands as part of my beat as a metro reporter, and stuck with them when I moved to Cal­i­for­nia (putting up with those other Giants here in the Bay Area). Since then they’ve won two and lost one Super Bowl.

I may host a party in two weeks. Even if they lose, it’s been a great and gutty year. But if it’s any­thing like the last time these two teams met, it’ll be a hel­luva game.
