So mod's are you going to report your grades of this experiment.

I give it a D minus.

That's about what I would give it. 

The "evidence" was not exactly sound.  Reports from Zimmerman's hand picked doctor are hardly credible.  What will be credible are the EMT report and the police statements and pictures of any wounds.  We have seen video of Zimmerman reporting to the station house not looking anything like what George's doctor claimed.  Not that is all that surprising as there are doctors who will stretch the truth for the patient so they can get out of work, file phony lawsuits or in this case help keep a murderer out of jail.

Secondly the witness statements about who was on top were clearly coached as the statements did not match human visual ability.  The statements involved identifying a man on top by the color of his shirt.  Now it was a dark night and there is a funny thing about human's ability to perceive color, it doesn't exist when it gets dark.  Try it yourself go out when it's near the end of dusk or darker and notice how vision goes to a basic black and white and colors become difficult to determine.

The police failed to do their job and let the killer walk free.  That gave Zimmerman plenty of time to work with his daddy the judge and his lawyer a to concoct a story and fabricate evidence like his doctor's report

Finally it seems Zimmerman's penchant for lying has pissed off the judge.   First he lied to the judge when he told the judge he was out of work and broke (when he actually had raised over $200,000 from people who rewarded him with large sums of cash for killing an unarmed black teenager) and he only turned in one of his two passports.  So the judge has revoked the killer's bail and he is going to be spending time in prison until his trial

I agree with the messed up laws in Florida justice may not be served, but the reality is Zimmerman is a killer that killed an unarmed and innocent teen and he deserves to spend a long time in jail.   

In my life time;

Bill Clinton-  8 years of peace and prosperity along with turning record deficits into record surplus can't be beat

Historically, pick one:

Lincoln-  Successfully guided our nation through a civil war

FDR-   Brought our nation out of the Great Depression and guided the nation through a world war

Washington-  He had a huge impact on the office and our nation.   He did a lot that set precedence that is still followed today.

For me, I never saw Gifford play except for highlight reels. He was way before my time. I remember Morris - vaguely. Same goes for OJ. I don't really remember Hampton, oddly enough, but that's probably because he played on some poor teams. Tiki is probably the freshest in my mind and like others have said, his off the field antics and the way he left the team left a bad taste in my mouth. However, when he played it was hard to not root for him. If I had to pick the best though, it's hard to say but both OJ and Morris were favorites of mine, yet I agree that Tiki was an all around player. I'd probably, on a very slight margin, go with Tiki. I can't really stand him now though.

Is that Weatherford in your avatar?

Yes, he is. That's from the ring ceremony. I thought he looks excited, yet kind of silly (I think it was his "suit") so I decided to use the pic as my avatar.

There is no doubt that Weatherford fully enjoyed going to the Super Bowl

NY Giants' Steve Weatherford is going to the Superbowl 2012

I would add that was a season saving play.  Had the Giants been forced to punt, I think the Jets go on to win and the Giants never win the Super Bowl

Nice write up Brian.  I hadn't realized the full extent of Eli's role.  The look off was critical to the full success of the play.

Ya I loved Ron Johnson too. All heart. Not much other talent or heart on the team for most of his time playing  aka the dark years ...... Amazing to realize how good he would've been with a solid team around him. Many thanks to George Young for bringing the NY Giants out of their Dark Ages

Sort of like Hampton?

I'm not suggesting he's the best Giant running back ever, probebly not even in the top 5 or 6. But does anyone else out there think that the name Rob Carpenter should show up somewhere in this thread?

One of the last of the rushing fullbacks.  Thanks for that blast from the past

I think Tiki (at least in terms of when each was a Giant) was the best RB on the field.  However his negative locker room presence would make me hesitant to take him as my RB.

I would take OJ Anderson first if I could have him from the beginning .......... 

I agree. Damn....did Otis really have over 10,000 yards rushing? I didn't realize that!!!

7999 of those yards were with St Louis

2274 were with the Giants
