GIANTS WILL GET EAGLES IN DIVISIONAL ROUND
NY Post ^ | 01/04/09 | MIKE VACCARO

Posted on 01/04/2009 5:08:06 PM PST by Kid Shelleen

--snip-- The crowd quieted. The Eagles celebrated. It was 23-14, and it would end 26-14, and it would set up the most deliciously delightful match-up next Sunday afternoon at 1 o'clock, the Eagles and the GiantsNew York Giants , the Iggles and the Jints, ancient foes and bitter rivals with only a berth in the NFC Championship Game at stake.

It might have been a little easier on Giants fans' nerves if the opponent were the Cardinals, who've treated the East Coast this year as if the whole shoreline had a case of Legionnaire's Disease. But you can't deny that this is going to be a hell of a lot more fun.

I will take that action. The Giants will be favored but the Eagles played them tough this year. The line will probably by Giants by 3 points..

If the Eagles and Cardinas win, a 9-7 team will be hosting the NFC Championship.

Go Kurt Warner!

The Eagles made Manysodas look like a Pop Warner team today... That said I’ll take the Giants next weekend.

He'll be rolling on the cloud (assuming he's there) laughing if its 9-7 Cards against 8-8 Chargers.

I used to love watching the Vikes back in the Bud Grant/ Purple People Eater days. That was real football, outside in Minnesota.

They had a good run back then.. like the Bills..

I hear tell they want to build a new outdoor stadium if the state will help pick up the tab..

Good old Bud Grant.. I only saw them play in the snow one time. My brother took me to the old Met, 10-3 Vikes over the Rams.

Giants always have a tough time w/ the Eagles and historically the Giants usually play lousy coming off a "bye" week.
I also note that different sports teams in the same city often win championships in the same year and we know who won the World Series.
Nevertheless, I say Giants by four.

In the meantime, Jerry Jones still hasn’t fired himself as the GM of the Cowboys.
