Every time I see the Laffy goal I shake my head. THAT'S the guy they drafted #1 overall! He took a leap this year and hopefully this is a sign of good things to come next season too. What a freaking goal!

Quote from: jgrangers2 on May 23, 2024, 11:54:44 AMI'm talking about why he went out to play a puck that Gustafsson was very clearly going to get to pretty easily. That set up the whole play. Laf was taking away the cross ice pass and it slid off his stick. The actual goal was kind of just bad luck. Igor's play setting up the opportunity was an absolute brain fart.
Quote from: jgrangers2 on May 23, 2024, 10:28:25 AMWeird, bland, low event game last night. The Rangers didn't play poorly but I also wouldn't say they were good. Kind of held their own at 5v5, but two ugly goals (not really sure what Igor was thinking on that second one) cost them.
Quote from: MightyGiants on May 17, 2024, 09:36:41 AMThe Giants were apparently high on Maye. However, he was a polarizing prospect with some NFL caliber evaluators predicting Maye will crash and burn.
I don't know how Maye will turn out. I am mindful that fixing mechanical and consistency issues are more difficult to fix than Josh Allen made it look.

Quote from: kingm56 on May 15, 2024, 01:34:21 PMI hear you, Tim, but the data simply doesn't support your sentiments; 6 of the top 10 most valuable franchise have stunk for 3 or more years...5 of the 6 have stunk for more than a decade; The Bill, Lions and Bengals are #30, 31 and 32. It's fairly clear winning has absolutely nothing to do with profitability. Concerning the PSL, the Giants could care less who buys thier tickets. The NFL ticket exchange ensures they get a cut of ticket sales from all third party vendors. So, while some fans elected to forgo thier PSL(s), other fans have stepped in to purchase them, if solely for the purpose of reselling thier tickets via said exchange to make a profit.
More to the point, the Giants marketing department does not care about throwing players a bone or winning games; their job is to sell tickets. It really is that simple, my friend. I believe some fans conflate the entertainment side of the business with football operations; they're two separate things...

Quote from: H-Town G-Fan on May 15, 2024, 10:24:45 AMWas Daboll's approach to training camp an issue in 2022 when the Giants started 6-1? I don't recall criticism at that time. I'm not a fan of the way the Giants started 2023, but I also don't know its the result of the training camp approach... and I don't think teams in 2023 were taking the Giants for granted like they were in 2022.
