Rating  - very surprising 2 set
I didn't read the ad carefully and found it was the 1986 and 1990 superbowl and not superbowl XLII. Wasted my money.
Rating  - Reliving the Past in Style
The America's Game: NY Giants 2-DVD set is a definite must-have for Giants fans. I have (and still enjoy) the VHS copies of "Giants among Men" from the 1986 season and "True Blue" from the 1990 season. While they give a game-by-game replay of those seasons, the America's Game set goes into the personalities, the challenges, and the triumps of some of the key players on those teams. The AG series is a celebration of the humanity of the players who are encased in so many layers of padding, we do not experience the personal highs and lows they go through - not only within the game, but with each other on and off the field. Steve Sabol has rectified this with an excellent new approach to the game, its players and coaches. Parcells, Simms, LT, Hoss, OJ and more are there to add a very personal touch to the 86 and 90 seasons. You won't regret buying this DVD set
Rating - The days of Parcells.
Great stuff here, rekindling the memories and loving it, lots of indepth looks and interviews with some of the GIANTS GREATS with plenty of highlight films and raw footage of the players and coaches during the seasons of 86 and 90. If your a Diehard fan and bleed TRUE BLUE, then this a must for your collection.
Rating - "For adult kids only"
Yes, I'm a Giants fan, and after the "Road Warriors" Super Bowl win this year (2008), to go back and see the gang from the '86 & `90 Super Bowl wins--how sweet it is!
The videos give you a wonderful peek at the major players: Lawrence Taylor, Phil Simms, Harry Carson, Carl Banks, Mike Bavarro (great interview), O.J. Anderson, Jeff Hostetler and Coach Parcells, who disappointingly, left NY just after the '90 championship. Harry Carson, a Hall of Famer, is a great treat to listen to. Imagine, he got into the Hall of Fame, despite the fact, that he couldn't even win a coin toss for the Giants. (Ha, ha)
As a kid, I got to see my first Giants game as kid, on a free ticket from my Dad's bar, all alone, at Yankee Stadium, watching the Giants beat the St. Louis Cardinals in the snow. Rooting for the Giants during all those lean, Allie Sherman, years makes these DVDs, really special. Ok, I laughed, I cried, I cheered. So what?
