The Giants had some specific needs they wanted to address in the NFL draft, but one of the biggest things that kept on distracting from the task at hand was the uncertainty of Jeremy Shockey's future, and the New...

The New York Giants. Oh, excuse me...the WORLD CHAMPION New York Giants. I still can't believe that statement and it's been darn near three months since the Super Bowl, but it is still hard to fathom that the huge...

As discussed in an earlier post, the NFL had been pressured by the GOP as far as the opening game to push the game up because of the Republican National convention. Well, folks, politicians always seem to get their...

If there's one thing that the NFL didn't need, it was another player that had an issue with animals in terms of abuse and neglect. The Michael Vick case basically had done a ton of damage to the league's...

The NFL Opener is scheduled for Thursday, September 4th, and we know that the World Champion New York Giants will be involved. What we don't know is what time the game will be. The time slot normally associated with...

David Carr has not had it easy in the NFL. The former number one draft pick out of Fresno State was crowned the golden boy for the then-new franchise Houston Texans, but even though he had the stats from...

It was one of the biggest upsets in Super Bowl history--maybe even more than the epic Super Bowl III when Joe Namath guaranteed victory. The Patriots were standing tall and looking to be the best ever, and it came...

No one really wanted to say it, but everyone had it on their mind. The Patriots on paper were a shoo-in. They had all of the credentials of one of the greatest teams ever and were facing a team...

Dorothy, I don't think we're in Kansas anymore. While this team hails from the most hustling and bustling of all cities in the US, nothing could have prepared the New York Giants for what the week has brought in...

We're less than 48 hours from what could be one of the most important Super Bowls in recent memory. For one, it could mean being undefeated with the best record ever. For the other, it could be stopping the...

Plaxico Burress was asked what he thought the score of the game would be. He replied that he thought that his team would win--and then also said the score would be 23-17. When the Patriots and Tom Brady heard it,...

Wait, there's another team playing in the Super Bowl? I had no idea. After all of the discussion about Tom Brady's boot or not to boot and Randy Moss' restrain or not to restrain, the Giants coming off the...

It's a Scalpers Holiday. The Super Bowl, always known as one of the most expensive tickets on a regular scale, have been reselling through brokers and scalpers for an average of 4 grand and change. Now thatsa spicy meatball....

Three games as underdogs. Three games on the road. Three victories. After improbable victories against Tampa Bay and heavy favorites Dallas and Green Bay, the New York Giants, riding solid defense when it counts and Eli Manning's leadership, now...

Ahhh, how the media can be so wishy-washy. They have for so long crucified Eli Manning ever since he pouted about being drafted by the San Diego Chargers, and over the years basically laughed at him when he couldn't...

If there was a football version of the movie "Enchanted", it would have to be the Green Bay Packers. Left for dead, Brett Favre had been waivering on whether to retire or come back once again. Packer fans are...

Being nicknamed "easy" isn't often that, when the moniker sometimes can be used to say how it is to play against someone or to beat them. But that may not be as "easy" to say any more, as "Easy"...

The Giants marched into Tampa Bay last week and made the Bucs look like a very average team, and one of the biggest stories was Eli Manning's "coming of age". This week, while the storylines have largely been about...

Tampa Bay has been kind of an anomaly this season, having injury problems yet still perservering, relying upon past-prime players such as Jeff Garcia and Joey Galloway, and having a no-name defense that was exceptional. And then there's the...

They totally played us. Just like out of a TV drama worthy of an Emmy, the Patriots played the role of the upset victim for almost three quarters. And just like that, they showed why they are 16-0 and basically...

The question will obviously be answered in less than 24 hours--can the Pats be beat? At least in the regular season, that is. They face the upstart New York Giants who are looking to possibly upend what football fans now...
