[MotleyGirl70]

Its a big win against a pretty good team...now they are 2-7,they need to win 7 in a row to make a run at the playoffs...I'm happy you got a win. : )

Cute. Nice jab at my team jackass :)

[scott says]

hey! I thought I was making friendly conversation...sorry to be aware of the situation and mentioning it :-0

[thoughtomator]

What fun is in it if you can't stop around like your head is cut off?

Anyway, I think the Jets suited up in the wrong NY team's uniforms today...

[MotleyGirl70]

I'm sorry :(

I didn't mean to come off bitchy. I was kidding.

I know the Pack are bad this year. I know it. I'm a big fan and at this point I can joke about it too.

[scott says]

I'm just playing with ya too! I know how hard it is to see your favorite team struggle, its no fun.

What in the world was that opening to the Browns/Steelers? That was one of, if not, THE WORST opening to a football game I've ever seen.

[scott says]

I went to the fridge for a bottle of ...umm...stuff...I missed it. What was it? It sounds like I had good timing, LOL.

[NCC-1701]

Your timing couldn't have been better. It was a rap-crap "song", if you can call it that. It was something you'd see on MTV on a bad night. Suffice it to say, the opening was perfectly dreadful and extremely pointless. You didn't miss anything of substance.

[scott says]

I don't know why the NFL markets to that kind of crap--I don't know any "hip-hop" demographic in watching football...it seems really stupid to me as well.

[NCC-1701]

Until we, the sensible viewer, has had enough of this drek, it will continue. Enough of the dumbing-down of America. That crap has absolutley zero redeeming value.

[FDNYRHEROES]

Lets see if my Patriots can embarrass themselves again, woo hoo! The Giants should roll the Vikings....

Wrong on both counts...

[scott says]

The Pats were lucky to win and I don't know what happened to the Giants...I didn't watch the game.

[FDNYRHEROES]

The Giants deserved to lose -- just an embarrassing performance. Good teams win games they're supposed to win, and it looks like the Giants aren't ready for the bigtime yet...

Take it easy on your team. Remember how the Pats lost last year to the lowly Dolphins...and then went on to win the Superbowl?

[FDNYRHEROES]

How about likely candidates for the "Jacked-Up" segment of Monday Night's NFL Countdown Show?...
For sure...Dolphin's Ricky Williams getting hit, stopped, and upended by the Patriot's Assante Samuel...

THANK YOU.

[Ultra Sonic 007]

The things that beat the Giants were turnovers and special teams. Defense was dominant until the last drive of the game, where they went into 'prevent defense'.

Opening kickoff: Willie Ponder fumble. Vikings recover.

Vikings return a punt and a kick return for a touchdown. Jay Feely missed one field goal.

Eli was picked off four times, one of which was returned for a touchdown.

The Giants' defense shut down the Minnesota offense until the final drive.

All in all, it's another week of work. However, my father (also a Giants fan) made an observation a few years ago that's still true; if the Giants lose, everyone decries them and labels them as losers (well, almost everyone). If the Giants win, all the fans fall in love with them. But one thing is always constant; no matter whether the Giants win or lose, the sports pundits on ESPN will always find something to nitpick with them. :-P

How about the Event Security/staff guy who gets rear-ended in the end zone during the Buffalo/KC game?

C'mon Wildcard

BTW, that running back of yours, Alexander is a bruiser.

[Victoria Delsoul]

That's an excellent summation, thanks much, 007. You're good.
