Bill Belichick

not joking

Mikey:  If Brady were to announce his retirement after they get knocked out of the playoffs, it becomes a possibility, IMO, but I don't think he's ready to hang up his cleats yet.  One or two more years, IMO.

PS. A tip-of-the-hat for thinking outside the box (and for courage. . . LOL).

PPS.  Mikey, just found this . . . so there are at least THREE of us loons    . . . . . .  http://ferrall.radio.cbssports.com/2016/01/06/why-bill-belichick-might-actually-want-new-york-giants-job/

Tom Coughlin is my all-time favorite head coach.  He's also the easiest man in the world to get rid of.  You just ask him to leave.  If he's the Giants' head coach next season, it will be because no one asked him to leave.

Excellent post.  Did you draw the cartoon?  If not, your skills at searching the Internet are clearly second to none.  Bob

A huge talent.  And NY, NY was not too big a stage for him.  Far from it.  He even excelled on both sides of the ball for a year (until the Giants wisely realized how important he was to the offense). 

A truly great player who appeared in numerous NFL Championships, he was fortunate enough to win one.  He deserved to win a few more.

Dorsett is Phillip.  I don't think he's related to Anthony or Anthony, Jr., but I do view him as you do (a winner).  Bob

Rich: That course in scouting is already paying off.  Bob

That's right, Osi, Bennett IMO fits perfectly with the Giants, both on and off the field.  If the other teams feel as you do he will still be there at pick 40.  Bob

The more time I read Ceri's presentation above, the more broadly I smile.  This is a very good collection of players. 

Usually I can find a guy I don't like, but there aren't any. 

No way the Giants fail to come away from the draft without one of them.

Bob

I haven't mentioned Bennett in a while, but for months I've been hoping he would become temporarily invisible and fall to pick 40 where he could be reunited with his college D-line mate Jonathan Hankins.

This man has NY GIANTS written all over him, in so many ways.

Bob

Ceri: First-class work. Thank you. Bob

MP: Looks like your glass is 3/4 empty.  Hope you're wrong.  Those results would put the Giants in the garbage category usually reserved for perpetual losers like the Jags, Bucs, Browns, etc.

Ceri: You are the first person here or in the general news media to rank the top 3 correctly, in my opinion.  Nice job.

Rich: Upon reexamining the photo, it occurs to me that if the G-Men fall short on LB's we might have to press you into service.

Len: I took the photo of Hynoski and Rich. Just sent it to him.  Assuming he posts it, if you look in the background you can see some lunatic (who probably escaped from an old folks' home and stole a field pass) bothering one of the other players.  Shortly after the photo was taken, security appeared and personally ushered the guy off the field.

This weekend I met some members of the Hall of Fame.
Not the pro football Hall of Fame.... the Bob In PA Hall of Fame.
They are 25 or so BBH contributors (along with a good number of spouses) who assembled in Albany this weekend to watch the Giants practice, share a few meals together, and generally just hang out for a great time centering on our love of the Giants.

This note is my way of notifying you that (in a private ceremony held a few minutes ago) you were inducted into my personal hall of fame.  Each of you is a unique individual who has his (or her) own remarkable variety of style, intelligence and class.  Meeting the group was quite memorable, not because you are Giants fans, but because you are something more important . . . a group of truly outstanding people.

Thanks for everything.  In more ways than one, it was a truly SUPER weekend.
