Giants' Steve Tisch hopes to score knockout with film 'Southpaw'

Steve Tisch has two jobs, either of which would land him high on anyone's cool kids list: big-time Hollywood producer and chairman of the New York Football Giants.

Even cooler, he is believed to be the only person to earn both a Super Bowl ring and an Oscar.

So it was that minutes after the Giants won Super Bowl XLII someone asked Tisch which trophy he would give back if he had to choose one -- his Best Picture Academy Award for "Forrest Gump" or the Lombardi Trophy in his hand.

Tisch said he would return the Oscar, in part because the Giants had provided more thrills than any film ever could.
