Vince Young spoils holiday plans for Giants.

If James Bond can't beat a dancing penguin at the box office,
you have to call that an upset .

So if "Happy Feet" can edge out "Casino Royale",
no one should be suprised to see the Titans rally from a
21 point deficit to beat the Giants .

Afterall, they did have Vince Young at quarterback leading
the charge in a 24-21 upset win.
It was the biggest fourth quarter comeback in Titans history .

But for all of us here in Houston, we've seen it before .
We've seen Vince refuse to lose at Madison High School, then
later at U.T., so why would we expect anything less with the Titans .

All Tennessee coach Jeff Fisher could say after the game was "Wow".
Was it a sneak preview of what the Titans should expect from Vince?
Anyone who saw him play in Houston and at U.T. would say yes.

Young found more holes in the Giants secondary than there were
in Michael Richards latest apology on the Jessie Jackson radio show.

Vince calmly passed for 249 yards and 2 touchdowns , he also ran
for another score. But it was the poise he showed under pressure
escaping a sure sack on 4th and 10 , but racing for a first down keeping
the tieing touchdown drive alive.

The way Christmas shoppers were in their element on Black Friday,
that's how young is with the game on the line. In fact , it was Eli Manning
who looked like the rookie , tossing a key interception that lead
to the winning 49 yard field goal by Rob Bironas .

So the Giants learned the hard way what the people in Houston
have know all along . V.Y. is a special athlete with a knack for
making the impossible , possible . He did it at Madison , at U.T.,
and now he's making miracles happen in the N.F.L.
