Go Giants!

Great second half against the Jets. If they play that way on Sunday they should be able to beat the Cowboys.

When on, the Giants this year have been great, when flat just plain awful.

wetpet · 12-26-2011, 06:58 AM

how about those redskins?

tazandjan · 12-26-2011, 07:47 AM

Go Cowboys. Like the Giants, the Cowboys have been alternately great and gruesome. Just have to see which teams show up for the game.

I have been a Cowboys fan since Don Meredith was QB.

champagne612 · 12-26-2011, 07:55 AM

I don't know how those guys take a beating week in and week out like they do.

One of the best years for NFL football for some folks in a long time - please excuse the Rams for their lack of creativity to win a game ... scratch that I meant to say removing the zero from the scoreboard.

Terry I used to hate the Cowboys - they ruined my Thanksgiving during what seems like my entire childhood ... one would think I could let it go 30 plus years later

Doug- Fans either love or hate the Cowboys, there is nothing in between.

Boxer · 12-26-2011, 09:12 AM

As a fourth generation Giants fan, not really much of an option on who to root for when growing up. Giants this year really have been all over the board. Played the Patriots and Packers like they were one of the NFL's elite this year, games against the Eagles and Redskins were just putrid.

I may have to love them sooner than later.

Two nephews that are playing college ball - both started in their freshmen year.

They are from Houston and both want to go pro and play in Texas.

Even though I hate to admit it - the Cowboys truly are America's team.

If for no other reason - the Dallas cheerleaders are world class!

wetpet · 12-26-2011, 11:09 AM

I can confirm that the cowboys are almost universally hated in my town!!

Oh please, the Packers are more worthy. The Cowboys lost it when JJ took over.

Red - if I have learned anything in 2011 it's to be able to back up what I post

Enjoy below as Dallas has ruled American TV during the highest valued day in the NFL.

That link provides -0- support to back up your allegation. Also, they are required to play on that day every year and force the public to watch in pain as we are usually cheering for the opponent and/or waiting for the camera lens to flash to the sidelines.

Finally, maybe you think turkey day is the "highest valued day in the NFL", but I beg to differ, it is superbowl sunday.

Nice try ...

The team for the highest ROI on a predetermined day chosen by the network is Thanksgiving Day = Cowboys!

Therefore I stand confirmed - if the network broadcasting had a choice before the season started for the Super Bowl it's going to be the Cowboys.

It's a ratings thing and the only fair form of measurement - but open to suggestions or shall I say leaps of faith comparisons

Like you, Nice try.

However, everything you have alleged is based on your opinion. In addition, anything coming from network television is usually 99.9% distorted, misleading or outright not supported by factual substantive evidence.

Now, back to our regularly scheduled program

Go STEELERS!

Speaking of Howard - I will never forget the time when Ali grabbed his rug ... priceless!

Back on track - Eli was a Ole Miss Rebel ... donates a lot of time and money to the school.

My son puts in a few hours of community service for one of his charities.

Says Eli is a very down to earth guy along with his extremely hot wife.

Have never meet Eli personally but all the feedback I have gotten on him from people who do know him well has been very positive. Very nice, smart, down to earth, and personable.

Brilliant game by Eli on Sunday night. Great to see the Giants live for another week. Also there best defensive performance in many weeks. Good time to be peaking.

tazandjan · 01-03-2012, 12:53 PM

Boxer- OK, now that your team kicked the crap out of my team, I will root for the Giants because they are an NFC East team. Eli and Payton each only have one Superbowl victory, so if Eli can win another one, he will have bragging rights and maybe both of them can get into the Hall of Fame.

We in St Louis have the honor of a team that got their butt kicked for a season.

I thought it was one of the best games to watch all year.

Manning is impressive - one of those players that is capable of doing anything at anytime.
