    James White Got Screwed Out of SB MVP

    ...and because of that I got screwed out of over $1k. I posted about this in game thread..I had $5 on White at odds of 220-1 to win MVP.

    He sets the SB record for receptions with 14. He scores 3 TD's including the game tying AND game winning TD's. He also scored a crucial 2 pt conversion. And they gave the MVP to Brady.

    Am I wrong in thinking he should have gotten it? Maybe I'm not thinking clearly bc, I would've won a nice chunk, and Brady was clearly the MVP? I don't know. Brady had a good game but threw a pick 6 and took a lot of sacks too. I dunno. Oh well.

    Yep, but there was never any question about it

    The MVP award was 100% going to Brady if NE won

    Lifetime achievement award tonight

    the only way white wins it is if brady threw for none of those tds or never had more than 200 yards and white had 3 rushing tds with a good amount of rushing yards - the QB gets credit for those passes more than the WR for the catches made

    Didn't Brady set a record for most yards thrown in a Super Bowl game?

    Yeah, he did. Brady clear MVP... can't be butthurt when you lose SB MVP bet and don't bet the QB. White was great, but when the QB is also great you're not going to win it.

    White played amazingly, but not enough to overtake Brady with his 43-62 for 466 yards performance.

    You're right eidolon.. For passing yards and completions.. I take back what I said. White had a great game, but you have to give it to Brady.

    I am kidding around Kermit. There was no way White was getting the MVP.
