My sons best friends mother is close with Justin's mom. So I enjoyed getting to
hear Justin and his life long love for the Giants.  He didnt come here for the money.
He wanted to help fix what I would have called a sunken ship. He's been a big Giants fan all his life.

What a great guy Justin comes across in this interview with Bobby Skinner.

As for being a lineman, to Justin its all about technique and working seamlessly with the other linemen.  He realizes he is slim but credits his "attack mode" for his success, not his weight.  To quote Justin, if you can control your opponents hips, you can bowl over the biggest opponents.  He also admires versatility but to really hone your craft you need to find a spot on the line and live there.

He rated Philly and Detroit as having the best Olines right now.

We are a work in progress but getting better each week.  His best buddy on the line is Bredeson.

LOL is that right?   What a small world!

Actually all kidding aside.  Pugh's return seemed to plant a seed, and Tommy's good play has benefited from it and enhanced
it with positive accomplishment.
Ive been watching a lot of all 22 and Tommy D is getting pockets Jones could only have dreamed of.  ...Barkley too is benefiting big time.

Ed: You should have gone with the line from Space Balls (Mel Brooks):

"Luke... I am your father's, brother's, nephew's, cousin's, former roommate."

A top-10 favorite movie of mine.
