    In what is indisputably being called the greatest game ever conceived by man, the Dallas Cowboys (7-1) head north for a match up with the New York Football Giants (6-2).

    Reached for comment early Saturday morning, the one true God of the universe and creator of all that exists made a plea to the world: "I just want to watch my team play. Leave me alone for three hours on Sunday and I will bring back pogs or jesus or whatever - just don't hassle me on game day".

    The two clubs met on the first week of the season in a 45-35 shootout, with the Cowboys winning despite poor defensive play. The Giants sustained many injuries during the game, leading John Madden to declare them "p*****s" between a stream of unintelligible interjections and references to his man-crush on Brett Favre and Larry Allen. Madden also teased the television audience with hints of possible new man-crushes on Tony Romo, Jason Witten, and Brandon Jacobs.

    The Giants defense is scary when healthy. After giving up 80 points in their first two games of the season, they allowed only 79 points in their next six contests. They lead the league in sacks and have registered 6 consecutive wins.

    The Cowboys have played extremely well during the same time span, with the club's only loss coming in what was laughably labeled the "game of the century" against the New England Patriots.

    Some other notes:
    • Jason Witten cannot be covered by any linebacker in the league, especially the no-talent ass clown Antonio Pierce. The Giants need to get to the quarterback to prevent Witten from eating them alive
    • Brandon Jacobs is back and healthy. Will the talented Cowboys rush defense be able to slow him down? Probably.
    • Tank Johnson returns to the NFL after an 8 game suspension. He will play about 20 snaps, spending the rest of the game committing felonies
    • Jersey Color - The Giants are breaking out the alternate red jerseys in hopes of changing their six game win streak aroun.... wait wtf?
    • Plaxico Buress will probably score two touchdowns of at least 40 yards in the tradition of 6 foot 4 receivers the Cowboys insist on guarding with 5 foot 9 corners

    DrewP's prediction: Cowboys 83 Giants 36

    Tank Johnson and Terence Newman will be playing (Newman was injured in week 1) but this game is in NY and the Giants are better than they were in the beginning of the season...

    Giants 30 - 24.

    Giants better lose. As so many of you are keen to point out when the Cowboys put together a win streak, look at the talentless ass clown teams the Giants have beat during their six game win streak. It's time for the Cowboys to give them a reality check. We know the Cowboys are the better team. If they play like it, then this should be no contest.

    Anything other than a Cowboys win is unacceptable. Get er done.

    How do you figure the Giants are better than the beginning of the season? Because thats what ESPN experts claim? They played the NFC's 2 best teams the first two weeks. Who have they played afterwards? They beat Washington (5-3) who should have a worse record right now than they have. Next they played a poor Eagles (3-5) team who's only convincing win was the fluke game against the Lions when they wore those hideous Blue and Yellow jerseys. 3rd win game against the Jets (1-8). 4th and 5th wins came against a (2-6) Falcons and a (2-6) 49'ers team. The last win came against a winless (0-8) Dolphins team by 3 points. All of those games should have been wins. Every single one of those teams either have a terrible offense or defense if not both.

    Right now the Giants look like a better team because they have won against some terrible teams. This is the Giants first real test since the first two games of the season.

    I agree. If they happen to win this game, then I will be convinced they are contenders.

    I have no idea why, but I am rooting for the Giants this year (besides the Texans). If I played professional football, I think I would like to wear the Giants' uniform.

    u are rooting for the Giants cause Tiki Barber hates them :)
    also you may not like Terrell Owens
    or you may not want the Cowboys to make it to another SuperBowl.

    I love Owens for the same reasons Bill Burr does. I also like Tony Romo. I said I have been rooting for the Giants this year, not just in this game. Learn how to read properly, one-bit.

    If Dallas wants this game they have to stop with the dumb penalties.

    A VERY Favre-esque 15yd TD pass to TE Tony Curtis. Romo semi-scrambled and then threw a high arcing, nearly underhand TD pass.
