"Giants-Patriots Super Bowl the second most-watched TV show ever
Associated Press
NEW YORK -- The New York Giants' thrilling win over the New England Patriots was the most-watched Super Bowl ever, with 97.5 million viewers, Nielsen Media Research said Monday.
The game eclipsed the previous Super Bowl record of 94.08 million, set when Dallas defeated Pittsburgh in 1996. More people watched Sunday's game than all but one American television broadcast ever, the "M-A-S-H" finale in 1983, which was seen by 106 million viewers.
The game had almost all the ingredients Fox could have hoped for: a tight contest with an exciting finish involving a team that was attempting to make history as the NFL's first unbeaten team since 1972.
But the Giants ended New England's bid for perfection, 17-14. Throughout the game, the teams were never separated by more than a touchdown."
Well since my parents are Giants fans – I guess now I am an orphan and need to get adopted. Anyway it was a good game – a Superbowl that you had to watch until the very end and the Patriots had a great season. George and Terry did suggest that if I had trouble dealing with it that I could steal some of Jack’s meds to ease the pain! Thanks for looking out for me, guys!
Jack’s kidney and liver function are improving. Right now he is starting to develop trouble breathing and a cough because of all the fluids that he has gotten and lying in bed all of the time. He did get moved upstairs and out of the ICU so there will be less things attached to him so maybe we can get him up and around a little more!

Jackmon and Cheryl, It's been forever since I've blogged and I'm sorry. Life with kids (and grandkids) is non stop. Lexi and Boo both start for East Liverpool Christian School bball and there have been a bunch of games. However, I've been reading the postings everyday, and praying( In Jesus' name just like Mary asked....there's no other name to pray in or to) and keeping you guys in our thoughts. Cheryl, I'd like to say I'm sorry about the game but you know I can't lie!!!!!! It was a GREAT game. How bout those Manning brothers. Speaking of Manning, we'll be there in a couple of months. Can't wait. You two have been thru the ringer from the sounds of things. Fortunately, Jack was out of it to remember too much (I hope). Like I've been saying, God's geeting you ready for some pretty awesome stuff. That'll be some powerful stuff. Well, gotta run and get some paper work done. Whatever we can do, PULEZE let us know and it will be done. We love you guys bunches and pray for God's continued mercy and guidance.
With all our love, Cami and Tedmon
I'm devistated...the PATRIOTS lost, but don't worry i was rooting for them the WHOLE time :)) It was a very close game and I am glad to see you guys enjoyed it as well. I hope to talk to you soon. much love <3
Hi Jack & Cheryl. That's great that you got moved to a regular room. Very, Very promising. Now Jack, just get rid of the fluid. and STAY OUT OF ICU!!!
I hope you are feeling a little better and I can't wait til you get sprung & back to the mansion. I know Roxie misses you guys.
Everything here is good. Ruby is a gift from heaven.
Recover as fast as you can. I'll be praying for you two.
Love,
Mary
