UGH!

The only Giant in the crowd

UGH, as in football, not just football, but New York football.

Seems like the Giants didn’t come to play in their own ball yard, and got beaten once again by the skins, putting their playoff hopes in deep jeopardy!

Rex Grossman put a nasty beating together for the NY No-shows, and the skins will be the only reason the Giants are out of the playoffs! Coach Tom Coughlin said after the Giants (7-7) fell a game behind Dallas (8-6) in the NFC East with two games left in the regular season: “I’m very disappointed in how we played today! I accept responsibility for it. But I expected to see more — quality execution — and we didn't get that.” Really coach? What about the players? They give you any input, or were they there?

After an emotional win the previous week, and the up and down battle with the Packers where they lost in overtime, I would expect a letdown by the Giants. The problem is this is not the time for one. The Redskins had nothing to play for except pride, and were loose, the Giants had a lot on the table and folded!

No show and no escape

The ugly did not end at the Meadowlands, it found its way in the city of brotherly love, in a place called Philadelphia. The Jets were scheduled to play there but must have missed the plane so management hired some imposters to fill the void. Guess what, the void was still there. So was a gut wrenching stink that came from gang green. In all my years watching the Jets play, and it goes back to the days of the Titans, this was the worst beating they have ever taken!

Not only did they stink, they embarrassed themselves, particularly Santonio Holmes after his only TD of the day. When the season is on the line, and you and your team are in a deep hole, you don’t taunt the opposition, you don’t showboat, you just score and go back to your pathetic huddle of mass green and put your mind in the game some more!

The stats, the turnovers and the penalties should keep Rex Ryan busy for the week. Saturday is a showdown between the two losers as they faceoff for their pathetic season to salvage as much as possible. To both the Giants and Jets: SHOW A LITTLE DARN PRIDE NEXT WEEK!

LST’S HAVE A LOOK

Cowboys, Giants, Packers, Seahawks, Texans, Dolphins, Titans, Bengals, Saints, Raiders, Cardinals, Patriots, Eagles, Ravens, 49er’s

Those were my picks for the past weekend. The bold-faced teams are the ones I got right. As of this writing I am 7-6.  The Ravens and 49er’s have yet to play. This is what I call sucking at predictions! Two big surprises were of course: Green Bay losing and Indianapolis winning! How many had both right?

TEBOW

Thank you New England, I was tired of the hoopla and the yelling.

Mr. Davis

THE KNICK KNACK

Knicks look like Baron Davis is part of the game plan. To me it doesn’t make too much sense, if he will be out until maybe February

PACKERS SENT PACKING

Kudos to Crennel

What a personal victory for Romeo Crennel! He takes over and immediately is asked to beat the best team in football, the undefeated Packers, and what does the interim coach do? HE WINS!

RIDING A WINNING STREAK

The Colts lifted themselves up as a team by not losing. That is the most they can say for their season, and to their fans, avoiding complete embarrassment by not losing every game. It IS only a one-game winning streak, but it is something they haven’t had all year. Is Indianapolis Peyton’s Place anymore? Will he return?

That’s all I wrote Folks!
