Legacies are at stake. Revenge is at stake. And bragging rights are at stake.
Even if the two teams plan on keeping quiet, another Patriots-Giants battle means another opportunity for boisterous fans in both Boston and New York to make their (loud) voices heard.
Fans will talk lots of trash before the big game kicks off at Lucas Oil Stadium on Sunday, and NESN.com is here to provide a battleground for that trash talk.
We invite Patriots and Giants fans to engage in a spirited trash-talk battle on Twitter. Use the hashtag #SBsmackdown. Please refrain from using profanity, hate speech and personal attacks.
In other words, be civilized savages.
NESN.com editors will curate the best insults, good-natured jabs, clever taunts and funny put-downs. We will post them on NESN.com during Super Bowl weekend. Check back to see the best of the best at talking smack.
And let your trash talk be heard.
