Bryan, just to clarify my larger point................
i'll elaborate a bit.

Not being an apologist or justifying his actions.
Faulk effed up and he'll answer for it. My comments are more how the whole world wants what we have. They do not have the ability, not at this time anyways, to match us and bring us down ON THE FIELD, sooooo thier sad refrain and much easier recourse is to keep calling into question all of the OFF THE FIELD of play BS (Spectre, spygate, Walshgate, Faulk)!!

As far as your check list is concerned, MikeP.................

I did say win SOME SBowls. One and done, doesn't even begin to appraoch the Greatness that this ownership, this Coach, and these Players have accomplished. All of last year's GTOAT rhetoric did not come from one Great season, just like they have not become THE model franchise of the NFL ~overnight. This kind of dominance takes time, and concentration, and dedication, and imagination ~especially so in the Salary Cap and Free Agency Eras, just my view gents.

Hats off to your post season, the Giants earned and deserved XLII, but let's see what happens with SB's XLIII, XLIV, and XLV???

between man and nature shall not be broken."~~ Leo Tolstoy

Tight Lines, and

Did you know that since they entered the NFL in 1925--35 years before the Patriots even existed--the NY Giants have played in more NFL Championship games than any other NFL team? More than the Bears or Packers. They've been owned in whole or in part by the same family since 1925. When you talk about model franchises, ownership stability must count for something. Giants' season tickets haven't been for sale for most of my lifetime. You have a nice thing going up there with Kraft in recent times, but to call it THE model franchise is a little over the top. They're among the model franchises, but fans in other places--Green Bay and Dallas among them--would debate the point. Especially Green Bay--since the fans own the team

Wise men speak because they have something to say; Fools, because they have to say something.

Glad to see that it was a case of mistaken "tokedentity".

Well said, MikeP, i agree completely with the place in NFL history that the NYG hold. I respect them as one of the originals and have always appreciated thier contribution to the post season. As painful as it may be, LAST YEAR included.

I was a Redskins fan for most of my life (41 yrs) and of the NFC East the Giants are the team i most admire; since, i obviously hate Dallas, the Phleagles are the redheaded step-child, and i always "LAUGH in the Cardinals general direction."

The G-Men have always been a class act, and they are miles ahead of Jerry Jones and Dckhead Snyder from the ownership side of the coin. Sadly, they have been an also-ran for many years, up until last year, and it took a 'wide right' by Buffalo to gain them some recent relevance.

That being said, we may be poised for a SB Rematch for the first time in NFL History that would be a back-to-back repeat, if i'm not mistaken??? And that bodes well for both franchises, i was mostly referring to what the rest of the Pro Football World has been calling the PATS and this current system ~from top to bottom.

i also would have to concur with the Pack, and i would be remiss
if i left out our arch nemesis the Colts. yet, ultimately, IT IS about
the Lombardi's and what are ya doing TODAY,
in the decade of the '00's !!
