NY Giants thread

[coxx]

Anyone else a Giants fan besides me?

They were lookin alot better in that KC game last week. I know these preseason games aren't the best indicators but still. The thing I'm worried about is their ridiculously tough schedule this season. They got Washington the week after their bye week too & we all know how horrendous their record is coming off a bye. Either way I'm psyched for football season. The fall is a great time of year for sports. You got baseball playoffs coming & football. Always something good to watch.

Here's the Giants schedule

Sun 9/10 8:15 pm vs Colts

Sun 9/17 1:00 pm @ Eagles

Sun 9/24 4:15 pm @ Seahawks

Let me get my flame suit on first...sorry man, Jets fan here. I've learned patience...lotsa patience

[coxx]

You old guys always love the Jets :lol: Namath was like 100 years ago. This is called "NY Giants thread" right? Not "NY Jets thread" :lol: I had to do it.

[Effin Ponderous]

I don't recall this being a closed thread...If it was giants only, you'd be the only one typing here. And by the way, Namath was great...and the Jets have sucked since then, but a fan is a fan is a fan...not like most Giants fans I know who used to be Jets fans but jumped off the wagon cause they couldn't take 20 or 30 or 40 years of Losing!
Wait, this doesn't sound real good for us old Jets fans :icon_conf :icon_conf

[coxx]

I don't recall this being a closed thread...If it was giants only, you'd be the only one typing here.

NY Giants thread DAMIT!!!!!!!!!!!!! :lol: I can't be the only Giants fan around here, can I?

[dplacen]

Go eagles!

[G.T.Subie]

J-e-t-s , Jets , Jets , Jets!!!!!!!!!!

[05sublegacygt]

Yo giants all day... im tryin to go to a couple games this season.. let me know and well try and get tickets and meet up and tailgate and shit..

[coxx]

Yo giants all day... im tryin to go to a couple games this season.. let me know and well try and get tickets and meet up and tailgate and shit..

ya man, that would be awesome. I went to 2 games last year. The minnesota disaster & then the playoff game shutout vs carolina :( . The worst part was I had a choice of the minnesota game or the 1st redskins game & I took the vikings tix b/c I thought it would be an easy win go get drunk game. So they shut out washington & blow it vs minnesota. If you can get tix let me know. I'm itchin to see a win

[direavenger]

Giants convert (from the Eagles) here. My girl and I are at every home game.

[coxx]

^^lucky bastard going to every home game. I wish I had season tix.

[direavenger]

You just have to find the right girl, like I did :icon_wink

Her family has had season tickets for a looong time, and one of the stipulations for going with them was that I had to at least act like I support the Giants while I'm there. As soon as I agreed, Giants apparel started "magically" appearing for me to wear on gameday :lol:

[coxx]

:lol: I had this girl after me for a while. We had hooked up a few times & she wanted to be my g/f so so badly. I'm not saying I'm a stud or anything but sometimes it works out like that. I really didnt want to get all serious with her. She tried to tempt me with season tickets. Said her dad & brother go every home game & they need someone to go with them. I did think about it for a day or so but I decided season tickets weren't worth me being with a girl I really didnt like all that much. As for giants gear, well, lets say I own more than 1 jersey :lol: I even have a childs size "LT" shirt somewhere from when I was a kid.

[godwhomismike]

Steelers > Giants


:p :p :p :p


.

[godwhomismike]

If anyone has a deal on Eagles vs Giants tickets - I'd be interested :)

[direavenger]

^^^I'll keep you posted on that. I know some other people who usually sell their tickets, so I might be able to get you two @ the meadowlands.

[G.T.Subie]

My dad might have some available.

[coxx]

ahhhhh shit hook me up too someone, anyone.

[Effin Ponderous]

Hey, if it makes ya feel better....

My wife put her son (from 1st marriage) on the season ticket waiting list when he was born. That was 13 years ago...he has an estimated 18 years left. So when he is in his early thirties; married with a mortgage, kids and a dog. The spot will be available and hopefully he will be able to afford them.

By the way, she's the perfect wife, except for her taste in football teams :lol: :lol: :lol:

[direavenger]

^^^Who knows what will happen once the new stadium is built. Yor wife's son might get bumped up a little faster. The seat license fees, however...

[coxx]

I hate that they're building a new stadium. Giants stadium is perfect to me. Every seat is a good seat. The upper decks are a tight squeeze. Especially if you're sitting next to a fat guy :lol: but you can see great from anywhere in the whole place. Plus it's so plain & crappy you gotta love it

[subieson26]

The Giants are awesome! Got some preseason tix to the Jets/Giants game this friday. Can't wait. Of course i got them from a jets fan, because Giants fans rarely give up there tickets. Who gives a shit though. The season opener is going to be a sick game.

[direavenger]

+1. I've only been going there a few years, but I love the design. Granted, things can be a little more efficient but I don't see a big reason for knocking the thing down, other than having a pecker contest with Philly and "The Link" :icon_bigg

[jackacc]

Man, I havent been to a Giants game in years! I went all the time growing up... my Dad's company used to have seats and we were all over it, but last time I tried to get tix last year, they were expensive! Lived in FL for the last few years so I was forced to go to Dolphins games.... :( booooooo

And coxx: put that old school LT shirt on ebay! Could bring a mint... or at least enough to get a ticket or 2 :icon_bigg

[direavenger]

The season opener is going to be a sick game.

I'm psyched for that game. Manning v. Manning = sweet! I've gotta get up for work at 5:30 the next morning, but I don't care.

Anybody watching the preseason game right now? Lorenzen is looking good!

[coxx]

Anybody watching the preseason game right now? Lorenzen is looking good!

Lorenzen did look pretty good. He's pretty nimble for a fat guy :lol: Too bad he had zero protection. That Jets special teams TD was bull$hit :icon_mad:

[coxx]

I really think the NFL wants Peyton Manning to go to the superbowl. Those were some real ridiculous calls against the Giants last night. "crackback" on Buress & then the offensive pass interference against Carter. The PI was the real bullshit one. WTF??? Incidental minor contact was all that was.

+1. I thought I wasn't getting out of there alive last night. People went freaking nuts on all of the calls that you mentioned, particularly on the PI call against Carter, which essentially killed the Giants chances (that, and Eli's INT). I've never heard a game end with so much booing.

[Effin Ponderous]

I'm a DH Jets fan and I even knew it was a BS call that cost them the game

[direavenger]

^^^Eli's resulting loss of composure and INT cost us the game, but nobody can argue that the blown calls last night had a HUGE impact...two calls killed two would-be (in my opinion) scoring drives.

As a side-note, I'm glad to see some sportmanship from the fans of our staduim roomate. I'm a little new to the rivalry, case in point: I was tailgating in the parking lot, and I kept on hearing cheers from these guys with a satellite dish haphazardly strapped to their truck. I asked them what was going on and they said that Tennessee was coming back. It took me all of two seconds to realize who Tennessee was playing, and that they weren't Titans fans :rolleyes:

[coxx]

Eli's INT killed the game. The Giants D shoulda had at least 2 picks also though. Whatever, it's still encouraging for the rest of the season.

[Effin Ponderous]

HIstorically, Jets= Hatfield and Giants=McCoy. I just don't go there. They are both NY teams...or should I say NJ?

[GTSpeed]

I'm glad I fell asleep and missed the end of the game.

[coxx]

HIstorically, Jets= Hatfield and Giants=McCoy. I just don't go there. They are both NY teams...or should I say NJ?

+1

I dont give a crap about the jets. I don't hate em or like em. I've always thought you should root FOR your team & not against anyone except who's playing your team. Same way with the yankees/mets. Unless they're playng each other I don't give a crap about the mets.

[05sublegacygt]

BTW the giants shoulda had an int on indys 1st 3 drives.. and if the 2nd and 3rd were picked they would of been ran back for td's.. of course eli's int killed them.. but you cant say those bullshit penalties didnt either.. haha especially that off pass interference.. that was rediculous.. but seriously indy didnt impress me.. and giants played well which means 15-1 .. so whammy.. and the jets are the worst football team to watch.. EVER.. garbage team..

[iyalla]

NOW THAT WAS GAME!!:icon_mrgr 30-24 Giants/eagles

[direavenger]

NOW THAT WAS HALF A GAME!!:icon_mrgr


Fix0r3d :icon_bigg

Seriously, it was like the Eagles shut down in the third, only for the Giants to awake (after too many sacks to mention, I can't believe Eli still wanted to walk on the field) and proceed to pwn the Birds in every conceiveable way, including dumb luck (thanks to Tim Carter).

If it was possible, I would have given each team half a win, since they both showed up for only 2 quarters, but c'est la vie. The Eagles deserved to lose after dicking around with the giants for the ENTIRE second half.

[subieson26]

Debates are a waist of time...all that matters is that it's a W, and i didn't have to kill anybody.

[G.T.Subie]

They Giants biggest problem is their pass defense and hope that Arington wakes the hell up, he hasn't done anything.

[JessterCPA]

Does anyone here have Giants Tix for the game against Tampa Bay Sunday October 29?

Thanks.

Jesse

[direavenger]

^^^Let me check for you. I know that my friend had two available a few weeks ago, but I hadn't asked about that game since.

EDIT: Just called. Sorry, but he sold them.

[coxx]

They Giants biggest problem is their pass defense and hope that Arington wakes the hell up, he hasn't done anything.

Lavar Arrington = bust. (watch him do something amazing now :lol: )

[LegGTLT]

Hmmm... did someone say Seahawks? :lol: I think it's gonna be a great game this weekend. I'm going, so I'll report back to you all. :p Do you really still have Feely? :eek: We'll see if the false start issue is fixed also. It was loud at Qwest last week but hardly any false starts for Arizona so you guys may be ok. :) ENJOY! :D



P.S. I was referred here by an anonymous member. ;)

[direavenger]

Haha, I knew that you were going to bring up Feely :lol:

And about the penalties...19 penalties this season, and thats only the offense. 32 for the entire team :rolleyes:

[VVG]

There are a surprising number of Giants fans in New England. It dates from
when the Patriots didn't exist. So go Giants.

Jets Patriots could become be an interesting rivalry.

[LegGTLT]

I haven't checked the lines yet, but I'm assuming the Hawks are favored since it's at home. We should have lost last year though so I GUARANTEE that NY is still pissed about it. As long as Shockey doesn't start whining mid-game and cause any trouble... this could be REEEEEAAAALLLLLY fun to watch!!! :D

My breakdown:

QB: I give you a slight nod after the Indy/Philly games compared to our last two
RB: Gotta go with Alexander just on principle
WR: Hawks again with all the options
TE: NY all the way. Our TE's don't know how to catch or what a football is...
DEF: Hmmm... Seattle been's tough so far, but that's against Det. and Ari. NY's been lit up... but against Indy and Philly.

Comment away!!!!!!!!! :p

[G.T.Subie]

Alexander is banged up isn't he?

[direavenger]

With the RB situation, who knows what will happen. Tiki outperformed Alexander by a large margin last year, and the Giants defense looks strong against the run against this year as well.


Personally, I'm still not convinced with Eli. A good quarterback he is, but great he is not...yet. A great QB comes to the table and plays ALL four quarters, not two. Given time, he has the capacity to be as great as his brother. Stay tuned.

More comments as I think of them...

[direavenger]

Alexander is banged up isn't he?

As of this afternoon, he is listed as probable.

[BDII]

DGO PAtrioTs!!!!!

[dtmenace]

Go Big Blue.
...I'm such a big fan, my Subie is Giants blue!

[LegGTLT]

Woo-Hoo!!! T-minus 3 days till the Hawks lay down an ass kicking!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :lol:

[LegGTLT]

COME ON!!! Where is everyone in here? :confused: Well, I'm off to tailgate gentlemen. Enjoy your tv's and I'll report back. Oh by the way... WE DON'T PUMP IN SOUND!!! :lol: Jeez...

[coxx]

good luck. Hopefully you guys stop cheatin with the pumped in sound & we beat the piss outta you.

[G.T.Subie]

:(

[coxx]

[Effin Ponderous]

Even being a green fan I felt bad for blue. It can't be fun winning because your fans make it too loud for anyone to play.

[coxx]

they need to run the no-huddle & those 2 min drills the whole game

[Effin Ponderous]

helluva comeback though!

[direavenger]

good christ, that was a circus of crap. Yet again more fourth quarter heroics, but too little, waaaaay too late.

I dunno what it was this week (full moon?) but there were a lot of games that were even more rediculous than this one.

And I don't know where Ernie Acorsi got the whole 'pumping in sound' thing, but I understand his frustration. It was damn loud in there.

[coxx]

I don't know where Ernie Acorsi got the whole 'pumping in sound' thing, but I understand his frustration. It was damn loud in there.

that stadium was designed like a bandshell, like for concert acoustics or something. That's why it's so loud there I think

[iyalla]

they need to run the no-huddle & those 2 min drills the whole game
+1. Eli and the gang are trying to give people a heart attack with these crazy 4th quarter runs. They look smoother in the no huddle.

[dtmenace]

that game was SHITE!
comeback??? - that was not a comeback, i think the hawks got tired of dragging their asses up and down the field. i have been watching big blue for a long time, and while that game may no thave been their biggest letdown, It was up there FOR SURE!
[/$.02]

[coxx]

it was crap. They really look terrible. If they lose after the bye like they always do I think they've got slim chances of making the playoffs. I didn't really expect them to beat seattle but I thought they had a shot against indy. Now they HAVE to win the games they should

[dtmenace]

... like they always do ...

[LegGTLT]

that stadium was designed like a bandshell, like for concert acoustics or something. That's why it's so loud there I think
Ok, I'll leave the game alone as I don't need to be a sore winner and it was probably the worst effort I've seen that team put out in awhile. I DO however want to discuss this stadium thing with you all... :)

The "pumping sound" statement was probably one of the DUMBEST things to say/leak before an away game at the loudest open stadium in the NFL. Do it before you play against the team on yer own turf, not when you're going into their backyard. As for how the fans felt? It felt like NY in Seattle, honestly. Our fans are usually the hyped-up-happy people but they were just pissed pregame. :D Everyone had this little chip on their shoulder, a kind of "We're gonna F'n show them what crowd noise is." :eek: It worked. As for the staduim, you are correct coxx. Here's a snipet from Wikipedia about how the stadium was designed:

"Paul Allen (the OTHER Microsoft guy. :)) was intimately involved in the stadium design. He rejected plans for a retractable roof, and directed the architects to minimize the stadium footprint as much as possible to bring fans closer to the action. Also, he had the architects design the structure of the stadium, especially the roof, to direct as much crowd noise as possible on the field. Qwest Field has since earned a reputation as arguably the loudest stadium in the NFL. During the 2005 season, more penalties for false starts were called against visiting teams in Qwest Field than in any other NFL stadium."

Fans didn't want to lose the Kingdome intamacy or noise level so that was Allen's number one goal. Make it loud. So, hopefully this puts to rest the "pumping noise" theory. :)

[LegGTLT]

P.S. Allen also spent several million remodeling this theater (http://www.cinerama.com/)in Seattle. It's one of only a few still around to be able to show 70mm 3 camera films and regular movie releases. It's one screen but man is it sweet. :D It also has all the latest sound technologies that really make you feel imersed in the film. Projecting sound correctly is a hobby for Allen I guess. :)

[G.T.Subie]

Tiki is retiring

[BoxerGT2.5]

Tiki is retiring



If he does I'll shit twice and die. That will rank right up there with seeing Charles Way's career end as an all-time disappointment. Eli better start washing the mofo's car weekly.

[direavenger]

Tiki is retiring

Stupid Jets fan - stop spreading such rumors, you bastard! :nono:




:lol: It figures that he announces his retirement after a 185-yard rushing game, and while being tops in the league in rushing yards. At least he said that its "not 100% certain". Thank god for that.

[coxx]

he's gotta play at least 1 more season. I dunno what he's talkin about. Sounds like he wants to be Geraldo Rivera or something. with his journalism crap.

I <3 Tiki :wub: :lol:

[iyalla]

...or Barry Sanders :(

[BoxerGT2.5]

Rhonde doesn't believe him. When your own twin doubts you....... :lol:

[coxx]

Lets go big blue!!!! This is a HUGE game tonight. They've got the talent to win. Let's hope they dont F it up

[direavenger]

^^^No kidding. Battle for tops in the division, LETS GO GIANTS!!!!


Was anybody at the Meadowlands when T.O. was there with the Eagles? I remember one guy parked a cherrypicker in the parking lot with the bucket extended. Hanging from the bucket was an effege (sp?) of T.O. :lol:

[direavenger]

Somebody buy that ref a beer!!!!!

[G.T.Subie]

:lol: Somebody buy that ref a beer!!!!!

[BoxerGT2.5]

Awesome game despite some hiccups in the 2nd quarter. Couple observations:

1. Manning still makes some stupid throws (sailing the ball).
2. Jacobs is a phucking mule. Had we had him and played him the last 3yrs Tiki may not even be talking retirement (Save him on some of the pounding).
3. The D is really stepping up (OMFG Dockery just ran that to the house :lol: )
4. Losing Arrington will be big, despite how bad he's played, he showed something this game and at his worst he's better than his back-up.

[coxx]

Awesome game!!! Not sure I agree with you about Arrington though. He didn't do shit till this game. They're lookin alot better than they did before the bye though

[LegGTLT]

Good game gents!!! :D I was at the local Wing Dome cheering against the Cowboys. Does anyone outside of Dallas like that team anymore??????? :iam: **** T.O., I laughed at the Safety sack (that was classic missed coverage!!! :lol:), and what a perfect beginning AND end to Romo's night. :lol:

I predict that by week 10 T.O. will call Romo a Homo and be benched the rest of the season. Where's Hawks-Giants Round III??? I want to see both teams on the top of their game.... we're screwed right now in my personal opinion :(, at least you guys are getting better. :)

[direavenger]

I think Reggie Torbor will step up. He impressed me last season, and I think he will do a passable job at backing up Arrington. Personally, I'd prefer Chase Blackburn to replace Arrington, but c'est la vie.

[xjoecool85x]

hey you all I'm a New York Giants fan. I like the quarterback Eli Manning and his team beat the shit outta Dallas Cowboys on Monday night which was the highest football ever watched on Monday night must be embaressing for the "boys since both of their qb werent' too sucessfull against the Giants defense esp Mike Strahan

[direavenger]

Anybody going to the Bucs game this weekend? I'll be there, sans the LGT.

It looks like it will be Emmons and Kiwanuka in for Arrington and Umenyora. Good choices, I think. I forgot that Emmons played Sam Linebacker for other teams like the Iggles. I'm also psyched to see what Kiwanuka can do with a starting job.

Source: http://giants.com/news/eisen/story.asp?story_id=21492

[JessterCPA]

I was trying to get some tix for the Bucs game, but didnt want to pay through the nose. Now with the Giants playing well, that isnt happening. I wil be at the local sports bar.

Jesse

[direavenger]

Let me know about next season with regard to the tix. When I checked for you last time, the guy said that if I had asked earllier he would have held them for me. Let me know early next season (July-August) if you don't mind planning ahead, and I'm sure I can get something for you at face value.

[coxx]

anyone else sick of the whole Tiki retiring thing? I'm tired of seeing his smiling face on tv all the time. I agree with the announcers too. It's a major distraction to the team. The only thing is it might be more motivation to get him to a superbowl before he leaves.

[direavenger]

I think its a distraction too, but I hope it dies down soon. It's easy to fall off the top of this division if you're not focused. Look at Philly, McNabb had a brain fart last week and now they're out of the lead. I think its going to be a close race in the NFC East - close enough that distractions are going to make a big impact.

[wukindada]

Buc season ticket holder here......Our "luck" end's this week;)

Heat was what killed Philly last week

[direavenger]

I'm not sure about the heat killing philly, considering their final three drives ended in touchdowns. I don't doubt that the heat was affecting McNabb (it was kind of nasty to see him lose his lunch in the 4th), I think they were playing better as time went on.

[iyalla]

Anybody think Michael Irvin has been hit in the head one too many times:lol: He should know thats why Tiki wants to retire early so he doesn't ened up sounding as stupid as he does lol!

I blame it on all the crack.

[coxx]

yeah yeah b!tches!!!!!!!!! muthafckin GIANTS baby!!

[LegGTLT]

Doing better now then the Hawks now...game up for the Giants in the playoff race...

[BoxerGT2.5]

My advice to the Giants, from a Giants fan.


1. Lose the season out and try to get Smith or Quinn in the draft. Scratch Eli, he sucks, his name is the only thing going for him.

2. If I was Tiki I would retire now, to hell with playing out the season. The team sucks a$$, why risk it.

3. Say goodbye to Shockey, there is no way in hell he's gonna stick around in this crap. The Giants offense is preventing him from reaching his full potential.

[BoxerGT2.5]

5:39 left, plenty of time for Eli to toss another pick. He seems to have a better completion % to the other team. Nails them in the numbers like Marino.

[ANashTy]

Giants win ugly, and lose even uglier, this is just another example that Eli is NOT the quarterback of the future for ANY team. And I thought I hated Pennington (being a jets fan) but I hate Eli twice as much just because hes only gaining any praise or recognition because hes Peyton's brother and Archie's son.

How the HELL are they even sharing a lead in the division?

[G.T.Subie]

Bring in Lorenzen:lol:

[coxx]

I love how everyone is hating on Eli. When he lead the comeback over Philly everyone was on his dick. Now he sucks. Same way when the Giants were 1-2 everyone said they prob wouldnt go 500. Then they won 5 games in a row & everyone said they were going to the superbowl. The entire Giants team is out with injury. Eli's blindside tackle is out & is replaced with an old fat piece of crap :lol: The entire defense is out. I'm not counting them out yet.

[ANashTy]

In my defense, Ive always hated Eli, Ive been hating Eli since his Ole Miss days. Im an old school Eli-hater.

But you do bring up good points about the defense, and they are injury plagued in general, buuuut with the hardest schedule in football its hard to keep them in contention without getting of these guys back soon. And win or lose, they still play sloppy.

[direavenger]

I'm going to reserve over-arching judgement for Eli until the end of the season. This is a tough situation for him to play in - defense is a shambles so the O has to pick it up or forget about it. The Giants have to accept the fact that they will (most likely) be giving up a lot more points on defense, so compensation from the O is necessary.

Eli needs to clear his head this week. How he wants to accomplish it is up to him, but I'm sure that there are plenty of people who would like to do it for him. literally. with a large-caliber weapon.

[G.T.Subie]

I live 2 blocks from Eli and hang out in the same Bars, he has to one of the most humble guys in the NFL. I think he needs more of a mean streak during the game to deal with the players like Plax & Shockey and lead the Giants.

[coxx]

Plax needs to put the ego away & start being a team player again. After that INT he just gave up. Theisman was right. Instead of making the tackle all he did was push the guy.

[BoxerGT2.5]

I love how everyone is hating on Eli. When he lead the comeback over Philly everyone was on his dick. Now he sucks. Same way when the Giants were 1-2 everyone said they prob wouldnt go 500. Then they won 5 games in a row & everyone said they were going to the superbowl. The entire Giants team is out with injury. Eli's blindside tackle is out & is replaced with an old fat piece of crap :lol: The entire defense is out. I'm not counting them out yet.


Eli is inconsistent and often times throws the ball where he has no business throwing it. He locks onto Burress and that is it. You have a weapon in Shockey that is potent. No LB can keep up with him and no CB can overpower him. It should be pitch and catch to him, but Manning seems to not want to look his way at all. Bottom line is he should be on the rise when in all reality he seems to be taking a step backwards, as seen in his last 3 games.

As far as the defense is concerned, yes they are decimated with injury, but that is no reason for Manning to not make his reads or his throws. He couldn't throw a simple swing pass. Likewise, there is absolutely no reason why guys are 10yds wide open. The corners play too soft and the LB's have proven they are dismal in pass protection. Even if Strahan and Umeniyora were in, everything from the line back is soft.

[iyalla]

The defense is decimated. Eli Manning is no Peyton Manning. Peyton Manning does not need a defense to put him in good field position. Hell, Peyton could have his team 5 miles from the stadium and still drive them to a touch down. Do not underestimate the impact of the losses on the defense. Eli Manning is not and offenses quarterback like his brother. Not yet maybe not ever. He needs to learn to be Phil Simms and dump the ball to the tight end. He also needs that defense to get him good field position and to get the other teams defense back on the field so it doesn't have time to recover.

I still think they can do it :)

Well, it looks like after the blowout win back in the beginning of the season, my Hawks and your Giants are in the same boat: Can't distinguish their ass from a hole in the ground. :( WTF??? San Fran? Jesus... :rolleyes:

[G.T.Subie]

Plaxico is a lazy POS

[red beast]

when are the giants playing the devils?

[direavenger]

Seriously. He didn't even defend that INT that Eli threw. At 6'5", he could have knocked it out of the air or, God forbid, tackled him.

And taking a dive to avoid a tackle equals pussy in my book.

[LegGTLT]

That hurts man... I thought that game was going into overtime yet suddenly they lost it with an interception. Wow. :(

[direavenger]

WOW, Kiwanuka FTL. I can't imagine what was going through his head, other than trying to avoid a roughing the passer penalty.

[G.T.Subie]

:lol: WOW!

[iyalla]

What a fracking disaster. I hope the papers rip Plaxico the way they are going to rip into Manning tomorrow. What a wuss that receiver is :icon_mad:

[speeddr7]

This happens every year.
What a letdown :(

[ANashTy]

I turned it off with under a minute to go thinking the giants would win 21-14. I saw the replay and still dont understand how it all happened.

Sloppy.

[direavenger]

Just found out w/ Kiwanuka. He thought that Young had released the ball already, and didn't want to drive the QB to the ground.

[wukindada]

The Titans.............:lol::lol::lol::lol:........... .they suck as bad as my Bucs:rolleyes:

Nothing worse than people thinking you're some kind of wussy quarterback. I bet they post that on the lockers of the Cowboys Defensive line they'll be happy :)

BUT Nobody is happier right now than the San Diego Chargers front office :D

[coxx]

First one cracks me up :D

+1 Eli will be ok though

[iyalla]

I'm going for it i'm putting the Giants down to win in the office pool against the Cowboys.
Oh boy....
"Thank you sir! May I have another" :lol:

[one69chev]

it was a pretty good game........eli made a good comeback considering his recent problems...........

[05sublegacygt]

if Kiwinuka or w.e his name is didnt fumble that ball.. giants victory

[direavenger]

^^^Plenty of speculation there, but I really Like Kiwanuka. He had seven tackles and a sack against the Cowboys last night, and looked really good otherwise.

[direavenger]

Dwight Freeney's comments about Kiwanuka's missed sack last week: http://sports.espn.go.com/espn/wire?section=nfl&id=2682060

[direavenger]

On a side note, worst experience I ever had at Giants stadium was last night. There was this 20-something year old guy sitting behind us at the game, spouting obscenities. He was obviously drunk. I politely asked him to tone down the language because there was a six-year old sitting right next to us, and the kid's dad looked too scared to say anything (I hadn't seen at a game before, maybe he didn't feel like it was his place). The guy responded by cursing even louder and getting worse. Security was just smiling and laughing at him, so that wasn't even an option. He proceeded to heckle my girlfriend and me for the rest of the game, but I wasn't going to dignify his actions with a response.

Of course, I found out later that the guy that we get our tickets from is best friends with the head of security, so I'll be ready if he comes back next week.

[iyalla]

Painful loss.
22 yrds forward 15 yrds back 16 yrds forward 5 yrds back...It was like this almost the whole game :( Oh well at least they beat the spread for me :)

[coxx]

ah screw it. The season is pretty much over for the Giants as of now unless they get some luck & dallas starts losing. It's so frustrating to be a giants fan.

[direavenger]

The Giants still have a decent shot at a wild card if they improve on the good things that happened this week.

http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/news/story?id=2668613

[coxx]

^^I dont count on that. It would be nice but I'm not gettin my hopes up.

[LegGTLT]

Do you think Eli/Giants scored too quick on the last drive? I know they needed a TD so it's not like they could just sit on the ball, but what's the opinion on that? IF you have the match-up (Plaxico one on one on the outside like that) I think you have to take it since there's no guarantee that you'd get in on 2nd or 3rd running it. I don't know, thoughts?

P.S. My Hawks got some luck of their own last night. Never seen so many odd turnovers in one game. 5 by Denver at HOME!!! :eek: One other side note, is it me or do the Hawks and Giants win and lose in opposite directions almost every week. Very odd...

[BoxerGT2.5]

Whoever called the play on 4th and a foot should be shot. Line Jacobs at FB and Tiki at TB, keep the defense guessing, bring an extra tackle in for a TE and run it up the middle. Don't take Jacobs and bounce it to the outside, let alone Ware's side.

[LegGTLT]

I couldn't understand that either... then again Holmgren calls those plays all the time over here so I thought it was just us. :iam:

I thought the fans were going to tear the place down after that call. If you don't have faith that your line can push their line back 1 foot, you deserve to be fired.

[iyalla]

Burress calling timeout when nobody asked him too was the killer. If he hadn't called timeout Cowboys would have had no time for that last drive. But the whole thing was bad from the start. This was not a good showing. It was good for Eli but the team almost had 100 yards of penalties, come on, that sucks big time.

[mikeyp5284]

hey people.... die-hard giants fan here, through the good and the bad....... moreso the bad... but whatever.

can i just be the first one to say that Eli has a lot to learn still??? he's a mediocre QB at best. He's got to learn how to look around and avoid the defensive linemen and freakin take a hit...

on that note, QBs have gotten so wimpy in the past few years, and the refs cater to that......

anyways... i was at the Giants game in dallas this season, so that was my proudest moment this season [although i was in dallas.... :( ]

[coxx]

^^nice, another blue fan!

I'm goin to the giants/eagles game on sunday. Should be awesome. They gotta win!!

I agree, it's tough to be a giants fan.

[mikeyp5284]

^^ i wish i could be there, but instead i'll be in Indy for that game on Monday...

[direavenger]

I'll be at the game this weekend too. I'm gonna miss TO on the Eagles roster. Last year when the Eagles came to the Meadowlands, somebody drove a cherrypicker to the game and hung an effigy of TO by its neck from a noose on the outstreched bucket :lol:

[direavenger]

Yeah I guess we lucked out for weather so far this season. I don't think its been colder than 40's out for any home game yet. Of course it will probably be like -20 for xmas eve now, but I don't care. That will be a fun game if the Giants come to play.

[coxx]

:icon_mad: :icon_mad: :icon_mad: I was at that game today. What a disgrace. I'm really starting to believe those who say Manning is a bust. That game was the worst thing ever. I've never been to a Giants game that they've won, NEVER! The highlight of my night was watchin some philly fan get knocked the F out for yelling "F--K THE GIANTS!". Someone told him to shut up & he said it again & the guy layed him out cold. :lol: :lol: Then when he came to he started sayin that they were goin to the playoffs & we all told him he was goin to the hospital if he didn't STFU :lol: :lol:

What a disaster of a season :(

[direavenger]

There was play-calling in that game that I couldn't fathom. One sticks out in my mind was the 2-pt conversion (not that it would have mattered anyway) where they have a spread formation with Tiki in the backfield?!

[coxx]

^^dude, no kiddin. I was like WTF is this?? Truthfully, not enough pass plays. Sure you wanna get Tiki the ball but you aint gonna win the game on 2-3 yard runs. The changes they need to make start with Coughlin. Nobody on the team likes him. Then Tim Lewis has gotta go too.

[direavenger]

+1, a leadership overhaul is overdue.

On a lighter note, did you see the 11x17 offensive playcard that Andy Reid had?? The thing looked like a menu from the Olive Garden. Who knows, it might be :lol:

[G.T.Subie]

Jets
8-6

[direavenger]

^^^A cake schedule will do that to you :lol:

[coxx]

^^^A cake schedule will do that to you :lol:

:lol: :lol: in all fairness the giants did have the 2nd hardest schedule this year behind Cincy. Sometimes I feel like the league hates the giants for some reason. They never catch a break.

[direavenger]

They haven't given themselves a break, either. Soo many defeats snatched out of the jaws of victory this season. Shit, I'd even include last night's game as one of them. They gave up almost 400 yards in total offense, dispite over 100 yards of penalties for the Eagles?! Motherfvck!

[iyalla]

Alright thats it its over. Stick a fork in em. We are done :(

Will there ever be a championship team of any sport at the pro level in the Tristate area?!! Come on, even the Yankees have gone cold. This is getting annoying :)

[coxx]

^^no kiddin, mets, yanks, giants, jets, knicks, everyone sucks or chokes. It's gettin ridiculous.

[NewLegGT67]

With the exception of the Knicks. All the other teams lure you in and get you excited and then>>> they choke or the entire team is on the Disable List.

Don't get me started on the Knicks!!

[G.T.Subie]

^^^A cake schedule will do that to you :lol:
They just beat the teams they are supposed to. If the Giants did that they would be in a much better position. Jets also don't blow 4th Qtr leads like it's there job.

Could it be that the Jets last superbowl appearance was in 1969 thats why? ;) Giants have been there 3 times. Two in recent times, 1986 and 1990, I can even remember those games. How many people on this forum for example were around in '69?
Giants have been here since 1925, Jets arrive in the early sixties.
Last but not least they should get and name their own stadium!:lol:

Its like the Mets fans complaining about the Yankee coverage. The Yankees totally obliterate the Mets in terms of worlds series appearances. And titles 26 to 2.

[G.T.Subie]

I am not complaining, I route for the Giants.:) My dad is a season ticket holder. Plus in the NY area there is no such thing as lack of coverage.:icon_wink

[iyalla]

LOL :lol: I hear ya.

[iyalla]

Man this is torture :(
Did somebody get the number on that freight train. I think it had "Bush" written on the back of it.

[direavenger]

That game was hell to watch. I was one of like 15 people left in the stadium at the end of the game because I wanted to see Tiki walk off the field. I ended up only seeing a mass of 30 cameramen walk off :lol:

[JBLU24]

i left in the 4th to beat traffic......too bad everyone else had the same idea, lol

what a horrible game

[coxx]

Coughlin back for another year of misery. I hope they go 4-12 next season, I really do. That way Coughlin will be fired & they'll get a pick in the draft & can maybe get a QB that looks & acts like a football player.

[direavenger]

“Tom Coughlin is our coach for 2007 and hopefully for many years after that.” --John Mara

I sure hope that he knows something that we all don't. It was nice, however, to see the players get behind Coughlin. More here: http://giants.com/news/eisen/story.asp?story_id=24297

[BoxerGT2.5]

Here's is what I'd like to see the Giants do.

1. Sign Michael Turner (never gonna get reps behind LT)
2. Defensive Cordinator- Rob Ryan (Capers and the 3-4 would have never worked here)
3. Draft OLB and CB's. If possible I say pick up Jeff Samardja, a big possesion receiver.
4. QB coach-Fassell or Mariucci. We have too much at stake in Eli to not give him someone to work with 1 on 1.

[coxx]

bump!

GO BLUE!!

[subleg05gt]

We r goin to the Superbowl!

Cant wait to beat up on the Pats!!

GO GIANTS

[iyalla]

That was one amazing game. Giants are rocking!!:cool:

[NewLegGT67]

I am happy for the Giants especially Eli and the kicker Tynes. I'm glad he stepped up an nailed that 47 yard field goal.
It would have great if they scored with touchdown in OT but at least he does have to go the SB with that monkey on his back.

As for W.R. McQuarters - Dude - WTF???

Why does every corner back in NFL think he's Deion Sanders (wait it's 2008, I mean Devin Hester).

[G.T.Subie]

Greatest SB I've seen

[coxx]

I'm obviously biased having been a Giants fan since childhood but that seriously was one of the greatest football games I've ever seen. Eli won that game in hero fashion with that last drive & Tyree hauling in that catch was nothing short of amazing. I love how right after the Pats scored their last TD stupid Bruschi & Seau were celebrating & then Eli whooped their asses.

Like I said, nobody can talk shit anymore for a few years. Eli showed he's got what it takes & he looked alot less frazzled than Brady.

[G.T.Subie]

I thought that was pretty ghey with them too,my wife even said why are they hugging when it's not over yet.

[direavenger]

Eli showed he's got what it takes & he looked alot less frazzled than Brady.

Yeah, his ass wasn't on the ground nearly as much :lol:

Greatest game that I've ever seen, bar none. My fiancee was there, and she said that it was pandemonium in the 4th quarter, particularly after Tyree's catch.

As they said after the game, "The Patriots did not lose that game, the Giants won it".

[LegGTLT]

Your fiancée went to the SB and you didn't?!!?!?!? :eek: WTH man! :lol:

I've heard several people say the game was "boring" and slow until the last few minutes. :spin: They obviously don't watch "football" but rather want to watch "lots of people running into the end zone all day"-ball. That was a battle!!! Watching Brady get knocked around all day was the game difference. The execution of the Giants drives was GENIUS. :D A 7+ min opening drive?!?!?!? :eek: Awesome. :dm:

Congrats guys! :p

Her dad got two tickets from a guy who won the Giants season ticketholder lottery. They are the two great lifetime Jints fans anyway, so I wasn't pissed. I didn't want her to get off scott-free though, so I called her every 5 minutes and said, "I think I just saw you on TV!". She got pissed after the 10th or 12th time :lol:

[BigT]

My GF is a huge pats/redsox fan. She thought the game was boring too. She really doesn't know that much about sports, but her family is die-hard. Her 80 something grandmother was calling her and talking to her about the game. But it is a damn good feeling to send the email to the sister and her fiance in response to the 'enjoy your 15 minutes of fame' and 'Eli is due for about 15 Int.' remarks. It is soooo fitting that this happened during the year of spygate!
And that the Patriots were defeated by a 5th seed team with one pro-bowl player this year, defeated by Eli, the brother of 'the other Manning'. I wish I could see that $hit eating grin of Brady now that Plax was right!!!!!

[LegGTLT]

:lol: Nice!

I've been watching all this post SB coverage, it seems just so perfect that the Giants won. :D It's like they willed it to happen against all odds. :lol:

[coxx]

They're gonna be showing this clip on highlight reels forever!

Best thing I've ever seen

[coxx]

eAnd that the Patriots were defeated by a 5th seed team with one pro-bowl player this year

same thing I told all the big mouth dallas fans. Who cares if you have 13 pro-bowlers? Who cares if you beat the Giants twice during the season? Who cares that you won the division? You lost when it mattered & still haven't won a playoff game in 12 years.

[iyalla]

Freaking awesome game! That last drive i'll remember for the rest of my life!! Eli Manning passed 'Go' and went straight to hero. Tyree was incredible, who is this guy lol and where the hell did he come from? :lol: This was slightly better than sacking Joe Montana into retirement and winning it in 91 against da Bills :D

[direavenger]

^^^The use of Tyree as a receiver was a bit unexpected. Traditionally, he was a special teams guy, and he was pretty good at it as shown by his Pro Bowl appearance in 2005.

no kidding, the key to that game was the Giants defensive line overpowering the Pats offensive line. Brady seems like he was not used to that kind of pressue. did you also notice that the Giants running backs were trying in every play to fight for that last yard? reminded me of Walter Payton. :wub: Eli played very well also didn't make any stupid mistakes. well done. bosco

No, it looked as if the game was over. He and Coughlin came out to shake hands, the field was stormed by reporters/fans/sidelines etc. After this, the refs added another second on the clock, and they had to clear the field. During this Bill went back into the locker room. It's unclear whether he knew there was more time on the clock or not. A lot of people say he knew, it's pretty unclear. Although, it is a Bill move to walk off.

[NewLegGT67]

In 1996 when the Yankee won. I felt bad about Don Mattingly not winning a championship because he retired in 1995.

I don't feel that way about Tiki Barber. He was quick to throw Eli and the Coach under the bus and he even was questioning Eli's leadership abilities as a NFL qb this year. I know some fans agreed with Tiki eventhough they won't admit it now.

Some leaders lead by example and know when to STFU!!

Now Eli can give Tiki the finger. His right ring finger. BLING, BLING, BEEOTCH!!

[coxx]

In 1996 when the Yankee won. I felt bad about Don Mattingly not winning a championship because he retired in 1995.

I don't feel that way about Tiki Barber. He was quick to throw Eli and the Coach under the bus and he even was questioning Eli's leadership abilities as a NFL qb this year. I know some fans agreed with Tiki eventhough they won't admit it now.

ya screw tiki. I always thoght he was wrong for saying that. My main problem with him was I thought he should've kept on playing for 2 more seasons. Then again I think him not being there might be a big reason they did so well this year.

If Tiki would've just STFU he could've been on teh sidelines, on the floats, & maybe even have gotten an honorary championship ring.

Donnie Baseball on the other hand, man, I just feel sorry for him. He was my favorite player as a kid.

^ Thats sounds like someone who is at 1 in the five stages of grief.

Five Stages Of Grief
* 1. Denial
* 2. Anger.
* 3. Bargaining.
* 4. Depression.
* 5. Acceptance.

Figure Patriots fans will get to 5 at the end of next season.

Sucks to be them!
You just can't put that much into being a winner if your city is always #2 at best. NYers can be shallow, goal oriented, prideful bastards because esentially they are/have almost the best of everything. Sports is just the tip of the iceburg. I know this sounds like an arrogant asshole's rant, but lets just look at a few things.

Sports: Do we really need to go into it?
Culture: More Museums, Symphonies, Opera, Ballet, Broadway, Off Broadway, Indi-films etc.
Safety: NYC is now much safer than most cities.
Resteraunts: Too many to count
Naional/Historic sites: While many of them have been torn down, we still have the Statue of liberty, Grand Central/Post office, Rock Centre
The list can be added to ad infinitum.

good job Big T. :)

That's totally how I feel about it. Always have since childhood. I used to wonder why anyone wanted to live anywhere else :lol:

Shockey gone, good riddance!

[direavenger]

It was time for Shockey to go, but not this soon. Boss looks promising, but we didn't see too much of him last year. Matthews looks like he has stone hands, but we saw even less of him. I see a huge lack of experience in a critical position. In my opinion, they need to bring in someone like Kyle Brady to fill in the gaps and teach these newbs.

They didn't make a smart trade, either. They got two draft picks in 2009 for him, and now they have nothing to show for it this season. The Saints can use Shockey right away (well, for a few games until he breaks something important again).

(well, for a few games until he breaks something important again).
& that's why I say good riddance. The guy was great when he wasn't pissy about something or hurt like he always is.

I still maintain that once you got guys like shockey & tiki out of the huddle rolling their eyes at Eli & undermining him the team did way way better. That's not a coincidence.

I thought this too, but they did unload an injury ridden player with a bad attitude. He was good at times, but those times were not always when they needed him to be. On record, he only missed a few games per season, but anyone who has watched a season can tell you that he is always 'playing hurt'. I swear that his mom is announcing the game sometimes when you hear the number of excuses they give for him. Bottom line is that if you are an exceptionally talented player who hasn't performed for most of his NFL career, then there is a solid chance that you aren't really that good, and that you peaked in college.

While this trade doesn't help them this year on paper, we can see that Shockey wasn't missed last season. And the extra two draft picks can give them the opportunity to fill out their team with promising rookies, or people that can be traded for veterans later on. They are going to have big holes on defense, and they are going to need some more offensive options. Having an extra option can sometimes take the pressure off of rookies when they run their routes and make them better players. The extra year will also give the Giants the necessary time to get a good evaluation of Boss and the other new comers to see what they really need to spend those draft picks on.

Sloppy game but an excellent fourth quarter.

Steelers = spanked.

[BoozeRS05]

Spanked..? :rolleyes:

We had 3 turnovers, gift wrapped saftey, couple missing/injured starters, and a chance to tie it late in the 4th.. Not excuses, Steelers lost, but come on..

GL the rest of the year tho..
