Former New York Giants placekicker Lawrence Tynes, part of Giants teams that defeated the New England Patriots twice in the Super Bowl, couldn't resist taking some shots at New England Sunday night after their 45-7 victory over the Indianapolis Colts in the AFC Championship Game.

Great news @espn wrote a story on my tweet. Pretty good for a no name, couch sitting, washed up kicker. I think I am famous now. Yessssssss

Technically, of course, the Patriots lost to the Giants once in Glendale and once in Indianapolis. Details, details.
Whether you think Tynes shot was awesome or classless I know you want to weigh in. So, the floor is yours.
