12.29.07 GIANTS HAPPY JUST TO COMPETE
Right after Mike Vrabel recovered the Giants' attempted on-side kick with just over 1 minute left in last night's game between the undefeated Patriots and the G-Men, I knew New England was going to win the much anticipated match. Yes, as my bookie will tell you, that's just how good of a prognosticator I am. Anyway, the New York Football Giants were excited with their performance in the loss:
"We didn't win the game, but if you saw everybody in the locker room, everybody was excited," [Eli] Manning said. "I never saw a locker room so upbeat after a loss because we played so well, did some good things and hung in there in a game where we didn't have to play. We wanted to. We wanted to come out and play well, and we did that." "There is nothing but positives," Giants coach Tom Coughlin said. "I told the players in playing this game everything would be positives, there would be no negatives and that is how I feel."
Congratulations all around fellas. I wish I would have known this theory of positivism when I was screaming at the TV as Eli and the offense lolly-gagged through their 2-minute drill, or as Pats' RB Kevin Faulk ran past the sticks on crucial 3rd downs in the 4th quarter. How come throwing short and running for the 1st down only works for good teams? -KD

GIANTS HAPPY JUST TO COMPETE
16-0, 3 to go. Only Eli would be excited about losing, even when it can be traced back to his shitty play in the 2nd half.
If God is truly love, He will allow the Patriots to lose in the playoffs. Otherwise I will start the manufacture of graven images.
Nobody wants that.
fuckin lollygaggers. Go back to Jersey ya bums! whatever, close enough.
16-0 means nothing if they can't beat the Colts with Marvin healthy
As much as it pains me to see them go 16-0 a part of me is excited to see how pissed Carl is going to be monday.
Bullshit game - good for you Patsies. You proved, once again, that if it’s good for Vegas, you will be handed a win with penalty yardage. How the fuck is it that every zebra on the field misses a blatant poke in the eye, but somehow they see someone allegedly spitting on another player in the midst of a sideline scrum. Fucking stupid league, I always get the feeling that their games are scripted. I’m going to go beat off to women’s volleyball.
TP, that eye poking miscall made me shit bricks. You could really tell who they bet their grandkids’ college fund on with those shit calls.
And while the Pats may be 16-0, I still refuse to worship any team from Boston. Oh, and I hope Tom Brady’s ego explodes straight outta his fivehead during the playoffs and he leaves a bloody mess all over his teammates and the guy who would’ve sacked his ass five seconds later. Is that positive enough for ya, Eli?
Wow. Boston-hating losers crying about reffing? As the wise and mighty Ufford once put it, you gotta be a bitch to bitch about the refs. Actually, I think that's more of a paraphrase, but you get the point.
The Refs had nuttin' ta do wit it, ya stoopids. The Giants beat themselves like a twelve-year-old Michael Jackson. Worse game management I've ever seen.
