Slightly OT- Super Mario
Was anyone else just waiting for this kid to blow up for the giants? There were a bunch of preseason articles that discussed the lack of experience for the Giants at wide receiver, and Mario didn't get any love at all. But last night... both the radio and tv commentators were calling him the new number 1. I'm happy for him.

Per Brian@mgoblog - no former Michigan player is OT.
it was nice to see him blow up like he did though.

I didn't see that when I looked earlier.

I'd prefer if he weren't playing for the Giants, but I agree with your post, especially considering some of the hate Giants fans had for this guy:

10 catches for 150 yards and a score, including some clutch grabs late, should quiet all that

I'm a Cowboys fan, so I never wish success on the Giants.. BUT if they are going to succeed I hope Manningham has something to do with it.

Is is ironic or just karma that a Michigan player succeeds in place of a Michigan State player who's going to jail?
