I can't blame the Eagles for wanting Plax... he just fucking killed them every year since he's been here.
I have a feeling though if he stays in the east, Kenny Phillips is going to just absolutely fucking kill him this year. Just a weird gut feeling... I know I have nothing to go on with that, really. And that's if he's able to get open with Webby draped all over him.
We always get the Jets, Pats, and Carolina. The other game alternates between Cleveland (to keep up the old rivalry) and Baltimore (who's old owner, Art Modell, used to be very good friends with Wellington Mara).
17 games = 10 years of hearing this in the postseason:
"Well, you've gotta wonder if that extra game didn't wear so-and-so out and add to him getting this career threatening injury."
Here's my prediction for March 31st:
Burress arrives in the courtroom for his plea.
He enters a plea of "not guilty."
Another trial date is set for July.
The whole thing lasts two minutes.
We are in INCREDIBLY good shape heading into this next season.
Bundle some draft picks to move up?
Send some picks for a Braylon Edwards or Anquan Boldin?
Or keep 'em all and let Reese work his draft magic?
...it's a good time to be a Giants fan.
I think one of those two guys would be valuable as a "Sam Madison" type... more a coach on the sidelines and role player that can fill in for somebody in a pinch than a viable starter. We have a really young receiving core now... a savvy old guy might not be a bad addition at WR to help those guys develop.
"The Giants weren't the same team without Shockey?"
Um... weren't we a top-five offense for most of the year, while Shockey played in five games all year? :WTF:
I know he's getting up there in age, but he still is a HUGE threat in the passing game. He might have baggage but everyone knows this is Eli's team now, and I think TO just really wants to win and wants a ring at this point.
Reese has done a great job of instilling a "team first" attitude and I think a big, athletic wideout like... uh... heh... a-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha!
Just kidding. If T.O. got run over by a steamroller tomorrow I'd throw a fucking party. I hate that fucking asshole!
