Are the Giants in OK shape? With Kiwanuka and Tuck as our defensive ends, we're still in OK shape at the position. But I can't help but worry that what worked to win the Super Bowl last season isn't here...

Crap! DE Osi Umenyiora suffered a torn lateral meniscus in his left knee and is out for the 2008 season. There is at least one doctor saying there's a glimmer of hope, but don't get your hopes up. If they...

I wanted a statement. What I got was something else... First, let's hope the injuries to Umenyiora, Clark, Dahl, and Goddard are not too bad. Uncharecteristically, Coughlin said Umenyiora should be OK (he doesn't usually talk about injuries so soon):...

The Giants starters looked good. The backups, not so much. The Giants front 4 (front 7 really) looked very strong. Good defensive ends, good tackles, good defense. Danny Ware and Domenik Hixon made strong cases to be on the team....

Here's an article on how the Lions preseason gmae showed the Giants that they will have to handle more rollouts and things this season. The article doesn't offer any specifics on how they can gameplan against rollouts, but the players...

Some have complained about the NFL cracking down on player celebrations. Now the NFL is cracking down on fan fun. The NFL fan conduct code says no more drunkeness so the next time you go to a Giants game, be...

I usually to stick to football, but today it's Olymp[ic swimming. Can I just say how happy I am the the US beat the French in the 400 freestyle relay? Those French losers talked trash before the event, specifically the...

It doesn't explain the missed tackles, but maybe one reason the Giants didn't look real sharp vs. the Lion is ebcause the Lions did more game planning. The Blue Screen investigates this possibility....

I don't care about the Lions game (well a little bit since our 1st string offense looked pretty crappy and we missed too many tackles). What we really need to care about is Goff, our 5th round pick. He injured...

Here's the transcript of what Ahmad Bradshaw said as reporters asked him questions about his record and going to jail. Is it just me or are reporters not too bright? How many of those questions were good, smart questions?...

This article is kind of funny. Now that Strahan is part of the press, he gets to watch Cowboys practice. Most are cool with him but Jason Witten has some funny stuff to say....

This Pat Kirwan article has a video (look in the upper right) that's pretty good. He also says the Giants will be good this year. He predicts that Kenny Phillips will be a starter by opening day and that we'll...

Interesting interview here (audio file) where after talking about Shockey for a while Paul Dottino says the Giants should be OK with the following 3 tight ends: Kevin Boss - good potential Matthews - healed from dislocated shoulder (was playing...

This is a big trade - Shockey for the Saints 2009 2nd and 5th round draft picks. Trading big name players has become rare in the NFL, especially when they have a few years left on their contract. Did the...
