Giants take hard road to SB XLII

So in a weird kind of way, it seemed fitting that the Giants gained just 5 yards on three plays and had to call again upon Tynes, who had missed a 36-yarder at the end of regulation. His 47-yard field goal sailed true, and Tynes raced off the field as if he couldn't get to Glendale for Super Bowl XLII fast enough. "I just wanted to get out of the cold," he said. When asked about the final minutes of regulation and overtime, a wry smile crossed Manning's face. "I think we like to make things exciting on this team, and it's another example," Manning said after the Giants 23-20 victory. "We don't like to win the easy way on a short field goal. We like to hit the long one to win it." The Giants took an improbable path to Super Bowl XLII. If the Patriots (18-0) took the interstate, the Giants took a few Forest Service roads.

U.S. Airstrikes In Iraq Hit Al Qaeda 'Safe Havens'

It's the Third Infantry Division's assault against al Qaeda targets south of Baghdad, part of a nationwide U.S. offensive that began this week, Strassmann reports. The mighty barrage - recalling the Pentagon's "shock and awe" raids during the 2003 invasion - appeared to mark a significant escalation in a countrywide offensive launched this week to try to cripple remaining insurgent strongholds. But it also fits into the endgame strategy of last year's U.S. troop buildup, which seeks to regain control of Baghdad and surrounding areas as a buffer zone for the capital. U.S. commanders are now attempting to subdue the last insurgent footholds around Baghdad before the Pentagon faces a possible reduction in troop strength. Hours after the massive bombs fell, U.S. soldiers set foot in tough terrain outside Baghdad, an area where they haven't gone in a year.
