Get This Win!!!

This has been a long, tiring week so this post is going to be brief and straight to the point. No haggling about what I think or who's on the other side of the ball. As much as I hate the Eagles, and goodness knows I do, the only thing that matters is what the Gmen bring to the field. Are they ready to fight back or ... I don't even want to think about the horrible alternative. So this week it is all on Big Blue to show up and ball out!

In other news, a little "FYI" , my allegiance has never been tied to a season record, standing, playoff berth, wildcard spot, or Super Bowl win. I Bleed Blue through and through regardless if we start 0-4 or 4-0, or regardless how we end. Yes, I cry, groan, moan, and hyperventilate when things don't work out in their favor or they work against themselves, but then I shake it off and prepare to cheer on the next win. So the only thing left to say is, GO BIG BLUE! Get this win Gmen, get this win!

Aye-Yi-Yi

Week 16 equally sucked as much as week 15 *insert le sigh*. Instead of being blown out, my Gmen were beaten to a pulp by the Ravens 33 - 14. A little pre-Merry Christmas to me. Half way through the game I started cleaning and organizing my room. If my Gmen couldn't stay focus, why should I? Basically within a couple of weeks my squad went from running the division, to being ran over! Straight road kill these last couple of games.

I've read blogs, listened to analysts as they attempt to figure out the reasons for the meltdown. "Who's to blame" seems to be the question that resonates with every word written or spoken. Let me tell you what I learned from all the different sources I've read. Are you ready? NOTHING! Nobody can truly explain it or understand it. The players and coaches can't truly explain it either. Hard to solve a problem when you have no clue what it is. Aye-yi-yi!

So now the Gmen are in a position where they need help to get to the playoffs. Aye-yi-yi! Vikings, Bears, and Cowboys must lose and the Giants must win to be in. Otherwise it's game over, actually season over to be more specific. I just shudder at that thought.

It ain't over, not yet...

Drama Must Have Its Moment

First and foremost, let's recap my Gmen's game against the Eagles last week. Might as well not let it linger, just get it over with. Even in the NFL, drama must have it's moment. Of course I'm talking on the field, not off. It was the battle of the 2 and 1(s) of the NFC East. With my Gmen, the Eagles (blah), and the Cowboys (yuck) in a three way tie. Who would break out on Sunday night and lead the East? Of course, as far as I was concerned, it would be my Gmen. Unfortunately a very well known road was traveled that night. Whenever the Gmen and Eagles go heads up a barf bag is not too far away from me! Shall we flashback for a minute?

This game hit a new match up low and was hard to shake in 2010. Truthfully I still cringe to this day! I was so stunned I was numb. After it wore off I felt for Dodge, it was so much more than just a bad punt kick decision. It was sloppy special teams all around! It was actually sloppy Giants play throughout the game. Unfortunately he put the icing on the cake. I thought for sure Coach Coughlin was going to catch a case though! Wooooo-saaaaah!

The Refs are Back, The Refs are Back

Week 4 kicked off with the official NFL refs back on the field Thursday night. I would like to send a heartfelt thank you out the NFL replacement refs. As a teacher, I am grateful for anyone who steps in and attempts to take the place of the absent professional. As many issues as there were with bad calls and long waits for reviews, you proved there's a certain "je ne sais quoi" to playcalling that needs to be given its respect. Fans didn't talk much about the refs lockout, until after week 1. By week 2 they were howling for the refs to be given what they wanted and back on the field. Kind of reminded me of the Disney cartoon "The Replacements", you don't know what you're going to get until you get it...then you want to send it back.
