With Hall off the board, at least we know where we stand now
Herc replied to BleedinBlue's topic in New York Giants
which is why they should've invested the money in the offensive line and the receivers. can't really get on them too hard though, they did spend money on jordan and dominick rhoades 2 of the past 3 offseasons and shelled out the dough for jamarcus russell. but making this trade just makes no sense at all. they had the 2nd best pass defense in football in '06 and the 8th best in '07. they gave up the 4th fewest passing TDs last year. IMO if they were going to invest in defense they should've focused on the d-line--particularly the interior now that sapp has retired -
the cap has gone up by huge increments the past few years, that's why these contracts are getting so crazy.

he dropped out of the army and was posting for a while undr the currency name. he disappeared a while ago though, i dont even see him on aim anymore
-
yeah but we had good reason to bitch. we were mad that they took down CE and didn't leave until we were 'forced' to do so
-
i was at blue sunday's board years ago for a short while but all they did was bitch about how bad giants.com was......then blue sunday became a mod at giants.com
-
you aren't talking about plow and craig right? i remember they were being really childish and arguing with you, then suddenly in the middle of the argument craig was like "hey, where's your store, i want to buy some clubs"

that gibril wilson would live longer

i dont get it, they have one of the best pass defenses in football and they go and make this kind of investment in hall. mind boggling -
i got shitted on when i joined that board too, sure i took it a little personally but i knew i knew my shit so i didn't dwell on it too much. money and i had a million arguments, mostly on aim, but on both boards too and it never occurred to me that he was arguing w/ me out of spite--he simply had a different opinion. i think golfer and money both got bad raps by a lot of people. both, particularly golfer, made it a point to be as matter-of-fact and business-like as possible when they argued w/ people. it got to the poitn where i knew golfer was going out of his way to be as diplomatic as possible while arguing his point. that's not enough for some people though, simply disagreeing with certain people (and i dont mean anyone who's posting in this thread) is enough to set them off and have them take it personally. once in a while money got a little emotional if it went too far--and he rarely provoked the personal element of the argument--but i chalk that up to his age.

me too, i had a lot of fun answering each question w/o saying 'did you know'
-
it's not a bad strategy, almost every starting pitcher carries a substantial risk, so i dont like to use high round picks on them either unless their names are santana, peavy or bedard
-
your starting pitching is shaky--i can tell you didn't even pick a starter tillt he 6th or 7th round. liriano and lincecum are risky to have at the top of your rotation (though i'd probably consider cain the ace either way), but if they both work out and street stays healthy you'll be fine, your offense is obviously solid. i dont love your bench on the offensive side, but i can't suggest any good players or sleepers that are probably on yoru waiver wire to you till the sportswrath league has drafted

-he says he hasn't felt this good since 2003 -if this weren't true, then why was he turning down 2 year deals (including one from SD) to sign a 1 year deal with san diego? obviously bc he has enough confidence in his health to have a sick contract year in the best pitching ballpark in the majors. if you aren't healthy and you know you aren't healthy then you take the extra years -why is there nothign else to talk about in SD? they were one win away from their third straight playoff appearance(2 more than the mets during that span), they have the best pitching, from ace to closer, in baseball (again) and adding prior--even if he ends up being 80% of what he used to be--as a fifth starter will make it that much more unfair for the rest of the NL west. You really think Arizona, who had a negative run differential last season, is goign to repeat? Or Colorado--who needed to win 15 of 16 and to win that coin flip to get the play-in game in colorado instead of san diego (where they would've lost) just to make it to the playoffs--will do it again? -they won 89 freaking games, one more than the mets, in a harder division, so i guess by that logic the mets dont have anything to talk about either?

i love entourage, but put it this way--i got hbo and hbo on demand for the wire, and entourage wasn't enough to stop me from cancelling those services the day after the wire series finale.
-
what show is that? not that it matters, cuz even if i never heard of it or saw it, it's not better than the wire
-
any city that inspires the greatest tv show ever made is ok with me

i'd only go to baltimore to meet my hero, maurice levy
-
there's a law office every 3 blocks in long island for a reason--best not to give anyone a reason to call one up
-
the island definitely has its share of herbs. i've never had so many people try to start w/ me at a bar in my life, and i've lived in manhattan, bronx, pelham, mt. vernon, fishmurda, new paltz, all over--and nothing compares to some of the types i've met out here
-
at least we dont get disrespected anymore. you annoyed that the giants didn't spend more money? I thought that was how the team sold letting bonds go to the fans? I know they tried last season with soriano and aramis ramirez before finally bringing bonds back. Brian Wilson's the closer right? How do you and the team feel about him? his numbers were pretty good last season
-
strong island only got strong when i moved here
-
you like him better than chachin and mcgowan? those guys are no chumps
-
well im not an original DCP'er. I grew up in the bronx and Westchester, and my parents moved up to fishkill a couple of years after i graduated hs (in 2003 i think). i lived with them up there after i graduated college while i worked until august '07--now im in LI. so if you'll have someone who only lived there about 2 years, i'll be down to crack some rockland county skulls (i hate driving through there too)
