  1. Well thats pretty sporting of you

     

    My question is why did this one take so long to build.....Mets and Yankee stadiums went up in a year

     

    Add to that the fact it cost 1.2 billion and has no roof

     

    RedBulls stadium will also be ready next yaer in harison NJ and its a beautiful place.......has the roof hanging out to the field like the old texas stadium

     

    they say you could only get wet in the front row in a driving storm

     

    Seems to me a semi enclosed roof like that is what the giants needed......cut down on the wind but keep the other elements of winter in the game

     

    Well whatever.......this ones half done at it aint changing for 50-60-yrs........long after were dead

  2. its a very crowded event

     

    I would suggest you bring an group with you as it is not by any means an intimate affair

     

    My lasting impression having goen about 5 years ago was how dated everything in Giants Stadium was.......like a 1982 time capsule

     

    They definitely needed a new stadium........or a huge refurb

  3. Yeah, he's perfect for Oakland. He looks like he'd have no problem putting a pair of scissors right in your neck.

     

     

    Really......interesting observation

     

    To me he looks like a lunch pail guy.......a trucker, or warehouse type guy

  4. Al?? Is that you?? :unsure:

     

    I wish I had his bank account

    But just going off his appearance I don't think Al is going to last much longer

    He should have kept Lane kiffin

     

    I feel bad for the Raiders. I hope this new coach pulls off a miracle out there. He seems like a capable guy.

     

  5. I think this whole leadership thing can be widely over-stated. That position can use an upgrade for sure.. which is why I suspect we will be drafting a stud MLB to start next season.

     

    I agree

    I see us starting the year with Chase Blackburn at MLBer and Laurenitis or Cushing backing him up

    If chase cannot hold fort he will be returning to the back up role and one of the rookies starting by game 8

    Pierce will be traded or cut......most likely cut, i odn't see anyone but perhaps crazy al davis givng him a look

  6. I think the interviewed coaches are misguided in thinking that the Giants signed D talent to hide Sheridan. The Giants filled needs just like very team and got some, hopefully, good talent at the same time. The D got the FA signings because there really isn't any need on O that could have been filled with FA. WR is the only need and Houshmenzadeh isn't the type of WR needed.

     

    The funniest thing is most people who read this article don't get the toy Joda.......Toyota connection

    and its still funny

     

  7. I agree Nas, I'm hopeful for this coming year but cautious.

     

    Another big problem is Pierce......old and slow

     

    Yes Ware could be terrific, and our D line should be dominant and not wear down this year.

     

    The LBers worry me, The DC worries me, and we need a standout WR.

    I hope Burress is not gone but he could well be going to jail.

     

    Speaking of which will any team hire Michael Vick now......the guy is a PR disaster, but a talented QB.

  8. The Bills just became a legit contender

     

    They already had a very good team

     

    if they draft well we may well see a 1990 repeat SB

     

    I would love to have Kivka Mitchell back from that squad

     

    The Cowboys are not going to get better by subtraction

  9. I am waiting for JackStroud to start a T.O. has our QB thread.

     

    I would love to have T.O. Barry Cofield and I are on the same page on this one. Barry was inteviewed on New4 and said the Giants were just the sort of team that could deal with the talented but loud mouthed WR.

     

    I think in some sense SFO, Philly and Dallas blamed T.O. for the fact they had disfunctional inept teams

     

    T.O. is the perfect scapegoat but all 3 teams suffered, and will suffer when he leaves....their problems are not centered on one poor soul.

     

    didnt TO play the SB on a broken leg and nearly win the MVP award......

     

     

    actually TO is a saint compared to unathletic Antonio Air horn, and Plaxico Have gun will travel Burress

     

    If we dealt with shockey we can deal with TO

     

    The guy is only the most productive WR in the NFL over the last 3 seasons......man that would be hard to deal with

     

    Thats what coaches get paid for. Dallas does not have a head coach, they have a puppet.

     

     

     

  10. ....Yesterday, He's not going into the draft with 12 picks

     

    He realizes he needs a WR and I expect he will trade for one with all those Picks and a few xtra D linemen.

    He also said all the DL he has now could remain on the team and will play in a rotation

     

    Look arouund at the teams who have a good WR and need picks thats who we'll get

     

    This was in the Bergen Record print copy today

     

    I think We will wind up with Boldin

  11. You never know. Looks at that Saints with that Colston(sp?) kid, he was what their last pick of the draft that year? The Saints were praising the kid all throughout training camp and all the "experts" were already deeming him a flop and how stupid the Saints were for not getting a true #2 Wr that year. What do you know the kid is now the #1 Wr there and one of the better WRs in the league.

     

    I'll take the teams evaluation over anyone on an message board any day, so you never know. Maybe Manningham is ready to go out and flat out play, I mean he was a first round pick(projected) until the whole Marry-J incident. It would be nice if the Giants said something like "Oh we believe in so and so he will be our #1" but I think they are going to hold off on that till the draft.

     

     

    I think Plax will get probation and a large fine. He will be there as a starter this September

    It was a first offense, and hopefully they will be lenient.

     

    Bloomberg wants to throw the book at him, thankfully hes a mayor and not a judge.

     

     

    With Burress we'll be fine, without him expect Jerry to make a trade....he may even make a trade as a precaution. Lets see what our boy genius comes up with

     

    How about Pierce for Boldin LOL
