Giants are supposed to be in contention according to who? The New York Times? These two teams will finish 3rd and 4th in their division. Well, boo-hoo for me. Sorry, but even if I had thought about tuning in, I can't get into a game where I could care less for either team.
i understand your feelings about Dallas...I agree....but NY was a playoff team last year. they're a pretty good team....and they came off a week 1 spanking of the "annointed" Rams.
I heard that from several news sources and Bill Parcells. So the f what...you still missed a good football game.
I don't know Max. With the way parity is now in the NFL and the fact that the NFC East is one of the weaker divisions out there, I think the Giants will be exposed this season for what they really are...a mediocre team. I know that Philly has gotten off to a bad start, but I still see them ahead of the Giants and Cowboys and don't ever count out a Spurrier team. The Skins could win the division this season; I think they are at least a wild card team this season.
you may be right...but i think it's legitimate to say the Giants are a playoff contender...it's not like saying the Bengals are. i think philly is extremely overrated...i thought that after week 1, and nothing changed my mind in week 2. you can't lose that many good defensive players and be so one-dimensional on offense and expect to be a super bowl contender.
Well maybe you don't hate the cowboys as much as you think. I know several people who take glee in cowboy suckitude, and would definitely tune in when they're on center stage like this to cheer them to fail, esp with the pub Parcells is getting. Why the hell does anyone watch the Jazz in the playoffs the last few years? Everyone knows they weren't making it out of the first round. In most cases, esp on this board, it was to take glee in watching them fail. It happens, whether you want to admit it or not. And the reason why that game was so exciting is that both of those teams suck. When 2 teams that are somewhat even play each other, that is what happens...close and exciting games. If the Cowboys had played a team that is better than them instead of even with them, it would have been a blowout with the Cowboys on the losing end. Maybe you think the giants suck, but there are a lot of people who think to the contrary. Some are even suggesting super bowl contender, which I certainly don't think is out of the realm of possibilty, despite this loss. They were a playoff team last year that should have gone further and will probly at the least be a playoff team again. Yes Dallas sucks, but that just added to the hook, the huge underdog with a great coach against a much more talented team.
Oh, that explains it. The media said so! Once again, the Giants will finish 3rd in the division behind the Eagles and the Redskins. I don't care what they did last season...too much parity in the league and the Redskins are better than them this season. So the f what...you still missed a good football game. No I didn't, how do you know what I think is a good game and what isn't? If I don't care for either team, I don't know how you or anyone else can EXPECT me to watch it. I would rather watch fungus grow than watch 2 teams that I don't give a **** about. So, I only missed a f*cking game that YOU thought was good. Life goes on if you didn't see this game.
oh...guess you missed the memo. Sheila Jackson Lee sent us all a memo last night. Something about french fries and not missing this game...or else. Sorry, pal...move aside and take Rosa with you. Sheila's coming through!
~Removed heated words...lol~, Manny. Take a...~fill in words here...not necessary...rhymes with ill will~. So, you can't get into games from teams you don't watch. That doesn't take away from the fact that it made for a good MNF game that "most" NFL fans could appreciate. Why are you so confrontational today? Edit: It's okay. We're all okay. I'm not sure why your even in this thread? Edit: Heated opinions are allowed in this thread. My bad.
Ha! I'll just have to agree to disagree with you guys on the Giants being a playoff team this season. I don't think that y'all are giving the Skins and Spurrier any love.
We're all suffering from a little sleep deprivation due to the lateness of the game and the post-game interviews. I'm not sure what Manny's excuse is since he didn't watch.
Thanks. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I am sorry for getting upset with Surf and other Cowboy fans in this thread. I am upset at the damn media because this win is just going to continue to pump up the Parcells machine. I hate the man and I think he is a media w****. To see all those sheep reporters hanging on his every word makes me want to PUKE! If Tuna ever became the Broncos coach, I would root for someone else, seriously. At any rate, I let my hatred of him and the media's love for him spill over into the people who have no control of it in the Cowboys fans.
Maybe it was all me but you sounded down right condescending in the way your were talking to me and others in this thread. So, that set off a chain reaction of events.
Wow, you took the time to type that, keeley! I am genuinely touched! Admit it...you like it when I go crazy in talking about football here whether it is Miami, Notre Dame, Cowboys, blah blah, don't you?
