I’m watching the G-Men fighting for their playoff lives against the all-but-mathematically-eliminated Miami Dolphins. On the one hand the game is about the Dolphins showing respect for Hall of Fame former coach Don Shula on his special night. On the other hand it is about the subplots: Beckham v. Landry, Giants trying to win the east, Campbell playing against his former team, Campbell trying to earn a job… All of this adds up to a deeply interesting game that has become a 17-17 deadlock indicative of the Giants season(s) over the last decade.
We can blame the injury bug (the 10 yr bug? get new trainers and scouts, please), or we can blame the philosophy, or we can put it on a number of factors that have kept the Giants totally mediocre–until they aren’t. So far they really are and are suddenly trailing in a game that shouldn’t even be close. What can you say about that as a fan? There isn’t much really to say or do but to keep chugging on and keep trying to support the team in any way you can. I’m starting to understand a bit more of what the Cubs fans go through…
Some Thoughts:
- I’ve never mentioned it before, but this commercial is crazy funny to me.
- Gameplan/practice plan for football is coming together.
- Legit writing schedule also coming together. I’ve been given too many chances to be somebody to continue being nobody…
- WWE TLC was not what I expected. They worked pretty hard to get Roman Reigns over as a fan fave, but will it work?
- Hand is feeling better–broken but better.
