43 year old Giant fan here. That was an amazing season. 86 was sort of expected. 87 was ruined by the strike and I am not going to go into Flipper Anderson ruining what was probably the best Giant team ever.

To watch the Giants D batter there way to victory by smothering and smacking one QB after another into submission was the ultimate reward for being a true fan (especially loved Tony Romo losing it and yelling at his O-line). I still don't believe that Manning escape and Tyree catch happened.

We’re all around the same age (44 here), so we all probably started watching during the Ron Johnson / Bob Tucker / Alex Webster days (early 70s). Had some good players, but the teams were regularly among the worst in the league — not the best time to become a fan. Had to wait until around ‘84 for things to pick up, and boy did they get good in a hurry.

But to me, the ‘07/’08 season was the most gratifying of all.
