Don't expect a second DeVito circus

[MightyGiants]

As I mentioned yesterday, it sounds like DeVito wants to focus on football and not be the sideshow he ended up being last season.

Good for him.

I can fully understand why he took the opportunity last year re: the money for appearances etc.

I'm excited to see what he can bring to the table with Nabers, Tracey and 18 months in the playbook. Im expecting little but hoping for more.

Good luck to him.

Play hard, play well, lose a close one.

While I have zero problem with hoping for losses (hell, I was doing that last season hoping to land an elite QB prospect), I couldn't help but think what the late great Jim V would say, as he was violently opposed to the idea of tanking or rooting for the Giants to lose.

I miss him as well.  BBH has seen way too many good people pass over our 17 years, but I think he is the one I have thought about the most.  He was here nearly every day, reading all of our posts, and you could count on him to offer his commentary.

What I wouldn't give to hear, "he's a bum and he was always a bum" one more time...

Here's what Jim would have said about Tommy, "He's a bum, he always was a bum and always will be a bum." Then I go out and buy him a Prime Dry Aged Porterhouse Steak and grill it for him.

Here's to Jim! Often missed, never forgotten.

For some reason when I think of Tommy DeVito I immediately flash back to Bart Starr.

17th round draft choice, starting QB in I believe his 2nd year in Green Bay on a team that won 2 games.

Enter Lombardi. who immediately a thirsting Starr badly needed as a HC.  Now Starr was an intelligent young man, average arm with hidden leadership qualities hidden on a lousy team.

Three years later after the hiring of Lombardi they were the World Champs and Mr. Starr was on his way to a HOF legendary career.  So perhaps it is the long lost optimist in me that says why not Tommy.

Now I know Dabs is no Lombardi (not yet anyways) and yes Lombardi was smart enough to recognize talent and know how to build a team and teach it to win....and win....and win.

But for the first time in a long long time I can actually sit down to a Giants game and actually have a glimmer of inner hope.
