Big Blue Huddle

Wow! This reads like a true account, coming from many leaks inside the building - and not just Wink. There is a Daboll quote, horrible if true, that is too specific to be made up. It's also in line with a bunch of other accounts with the same story - Daboll's lack of emotional maturity and tendancy to lash out in tight moments. 

Now that all this toothpaste is out of the tube, how does Daboll come back from this? Does he make some private apologies and vow to do better?  What he's doing is simply not sustainable going forward. 

I also wonder of the Giants know they have a problem and are leaking this stuff around, greasing the skids for Daboll's exit. 

What the Giants are worried about and what they will use every NFL rule to stop is Wink going down I-95 to the Eagles. 

None of the above.  Tyrod is greatly respected by his teammates.  I have read that some were not happy that he didn't start when he was healthy and ready to play.  After coming off the bench and providing a spark and being clearly more effective than Tommy D, Daboll would risk losing the locker room if he didn't give the job back to Taylor. 

NFL Gameday doesn't give you all the games live, does it?  My understanding is that Youtube has exclusive rights, just as Direct TV did in past years, no? 

In a word, SUCKS!  It takes way too long to load and it's always delayed.  Sometimes the game on Youtube is an entire series behind the live action.  I've given up trying to switch from one game to another, simply because it takes too GD long!  You want to check out another game during a commercial break?  The commercial will be over and several plays run by the time the other game loads!  You spend a lot of time looking at a blank screen waiting for a game to pop up.  Very frustrating.

And I've noticed even the network games are a play or two behind Red Zone!  I'll have a network game on one TV and Red Zone on the other and inevitably, Red Zone will show a TD or major play in the game I'm watching, a play or two before it comes up on the "live" game!  Kinda takes the suspense out of the "live" game you're watching! 

And that's for a network game. Red Zone is WAAAAY ahead of any Youtube game.  I paid for the Season Ticket on Youtube this year.  I won't do it again.

I'll trade you Browns-Bears for Pats-Chiefs! 

I'm in Charlotte County, Florida, just north of Ft Myers.  I would LOVE to know why we're the only speck outside of Chicago/Cleveland area that's getting Bears-Browns, instead of Chiefs-Pats! 

The Packers are playing better than the 6-6 record would indicate and Jordon Love suddenly seems to "get it".....but I actually think the Giants will play a sprited game Monday night and keep it close, right around the number.  I'm putting the Packers on a 3 team tease, getting 3.5....or even a 4 team tease, getting 5.5.

Honestly, I had forgotten he was even on the team. 

Jesus, that was ugly last night.  My wife and I are flying up from FLA for Christmas week and along with our daughter, going to our first Ranger game in 10 years!  Dec 23, against those same Buffalo Sabres.  Paid a stupid amount of $$ for three halfway decent seats but who knows when we'll get to do it again?

But as I watched last night, I couldn't help but think, if they lay a turd like this on 12/23, against same opponent, I'm gonna be sick! 

Michigan coaches certainly didn't have a ton of confidence in the QB today.  They relied entirely on their defense and running game. 

Sounds like the coach jumped on them pretty good after the Minnesota game, with the message, "not having Fox and Chytil had less to do with the loss than sloppy play from everyone else", and the team responded, coming out on fire.  Next he can work on sustaining that energy for three periods.

With the pride of Don Bosco at QB the rest of the way, and they will start to give some of the young guys more playing time, sitting semi-injured players like Thomas, rather than risk greater injury, we'll draft higher than 4th and there's even a decent shot we get the #1 spot. 

Because we have no choice!  From my first games in Yankee Stadium, with Charlie Conerly at QB, it's been ingrained over 60+ years. It's part of our DNA!  I could talk a big game and say I quit the Giants and will adopt another team.....but I'd be full of sht!  I could no more do that than go to the moon.  I am now, always have been, and will die a NY Giant fan.  It's just the way it is. 

It wasn't jusy Gano telling them he was OK, there was visual evidence in practice. None of us saw those practice kicks but I have to believe there was nothing that raised concern or doubt.  They really aren't the blithering idiots some make them out to be.  Sometimes, sht just happens.
