Preseason Rush

Thank you to CBS for airing the Giants and Bears preseason game last night. Last week marked week two of being back to work, so I was in between cheering and sleep after the first half. My body is still trying to adjust from summer break to work mode. Anyway, I must say the first half of the game was really exhilarating. First of all let me say that I am a true blue-blooded New York Giants Fan who believes regardless how strong our passing game is, victory is not sweet unless we are shoving the ball down any defense's throat with a serious running game. With that being said, David Wilson had an awesome running exhibition along with doing a great job of snatching up short passes. He definitely has the potential to be a very dangerous back. I loved the spin off of a defender for extra yardage on one of his runs! On twitter I saw a few comments regarding his ability to block, or lack there of. I'm not knowledgeable of that fact, but what I do know is the rookie can definitely run! I was also glad to see Ramses Barden warming the field up with some quick passes and the first Gmen touchdown. Giants Nation has been waiting on him to blossom and bloom, hopefully this is the beginning of his time to shine! Of course this Manning girl was very proud of her quarterback's poise and scrambling ability in this game. Eli doesn't waste time talking about, he goes out there and just does it! I do believe he needs to be the new Nike poster boy.

Fool Me Once...

I was really excited about the New York Giants preseason game against the Jags. I made sure I had everything done before kick off. Then I was blindsided by NFL Network. I could of sworn NFL Network flashed up on my NFL Mobile app that the next game would be the Giants and the Jags. When I went into the app at 7:30pm on the dot, what teams appeared before my eyes? The freaking New York Jets and the Cincinnati Bengals! How in the world did the New York Jets get national coverage on NFL Network when the Super Bowl Champions were suited up to play? How could any team get that coverage when the reigning champs were on the field ? Totally ridiculous! Yes, I do realize Tim Tebow was about to make his debut as a Jet, and if nothing else the media must cover NFL triggers and hot topics. But still, I mean, seriously? We're talking Super Bowl Champs here not Eagles, 'Skins, or Cowboys. Sidenote: It felt good throwing that in there! Then of course I missed the re-airing of the preseason game because I was at school trying to pull my classroom together.

Needless to say I will make sure without a shadow of a doubt, that I am able to view my Gmen's second preseason game. Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice...nah that's not about to happen. Guess I need to start frequenting a few sports bars and getting their line up.

Well I'm through venting, the only thing left to say is---> GO BIG BLUE!
