I've been quiet because they had a genuinely tough first 6 games...the Seattle loss could have been devastating. But they came back and finished the first 6 at 4-2...even better then the 3-3 I hoped for.

And of course, nothing was sweeter than watching the Dallas Cowgirls go down in flames at home last night 36-22. Total destruction. Bledsoe benched in the second half, proof of his status as a second rate QB...big mouth "throw me the ball" Terrell Owens DROPPING a TD pass...the Dallas offensive line being, well, just plain offensive giving up 6 sacks. And Fat Tuna coach, looking around the stadium wondering what his next job out of football is going to be.

I know the Giants played well, but my focus was only on the Cowgirl's misery. When it comes to this rivalry, I know I'm one sick bastard.

GO GIANTS!!!!!!!!!!!!

As an Iggles fan, I can't support either team. However, I did experience much Schdenfreude watching the cowgirls get embarassed every which way possible. Both teams have their share of mouthy, classless jerks, but I do have to admit that I strongly admire Tiki Barber. That guy is about as classy as a player can be. Kudos.

Tiki is a star...class all the way.

Shockey, Burress, Arrington, sometimes Strahan...not so much.

Great game! I am alittle concerned losing LaVar for the season tho. I kinda feel sorry for the Big Tuna as at this moment he does not really have a starting QB.

How about that dropped pass by TO which would have made a crucial first down. I think that was the turning point of the game.

Yep, it was a pleasure watching the Tuna Cowgirls being manhandled by the Giants! Also nice to see that Manning becoming more confident with each game.

I'm not sure about LaVar...I never got to the point of accepting him as a Giant leave alone as a defensive necessity. But you are correct to be concerned if only because the D has been really clicking the past 3 weeks and we don't want that chemistry to get messed up.

I'm more worried about Umenyura's (sp?) hip pointer. That kind of injury lingers.

It was a pleasure to watch TO look bad, but I think Bledsoe's horrible goal line pass that got intercepted was the real turning point.

I'm a Pats fan so more of a neutral observer of the game last night. I like the Giants chances to win the NFC East, they look like the most complete team to me. I also agree on the the Tiki Barber comments, definately comes across as a stand-up guy. I occassionally catch part of the Barbershop on Sirius radio.

Dallas has to be one of the strangest teams out there, they play good one quarter bad the next, horrible for 3quarters then pull a game out in the 4th , or good for the 1st 3 quarters and blow it in the 4th i cant figure that team out.. With that being said i think the Tuna should call it quits after this year, theres no way he will be able to stand TO's drama for another year.. The G-men look good, not a superbowl team but a playoff team.

His twin brother Ronde had quite a game at CB for Tampa Bay on Sunday...2 interceptions, one returned for a TD.

As a pats fan, I was interested on how Bledsoe would do, given the way he left the Pats.

Bledsoe and E Manning, two qbs where the franchise had to dish out big buck based on their upside coming out of college. Bledsoe never lived up to it, now I’m interested in how the younger Manning will do and whether they can get a good defense within the bounds of the salary cap.

During the Giants game Joe Theisman referred to him as Tiki's little brother, a minor mistake since they are twin brothers.

As much as I'd love to bash Joe "Geniuses are guys like Norman Einstein" Theisman, Tiki might've been a few minutes ahead of Ronde. (No pun intended)
