In case today's AFC championship game gets out of hand, here are a few stories I found on the net to keep you awake before kickoff here at Lambeau.
Green Bay Press-Gazette writer Pete Dougherty broke down the Giants. Basically, he thinks the Giants are suited to pound the ball on the ground, but will need something from Eli Manning, and they may not get it. On defense, expect New York to change up its blitzes but look for Brett Favre to spread the field as best he can to take advantage of the Giants' banged-up secondary.
From the same paper, Rob Demovsky has a look at Ryan Grant's background. I didn't realize he was an assistant high school football coach during the year he was on injured reserve with the Giants.
The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel's Tom Silverstein has more on Wisconsin native and Giants starter Rich Seubert, and the parrallels with the Packers' Mark Tauscher. The New York Times has another story on Seubert as well.
Also from the times, a satirical mad-libs like blog entry on the legend that is Brett Favre.
From a national perspective, here's an interesting look at preparing for cold-weather games from ESPN.
