Super Bowl XLVI: New York Giants Need To Outsmart “The Belistrator”

Like most New Yorkers and New Englanders, I’ve got Super Bowl XLVI on the brain.

Now that the Giants and Patriots are officially both in Indianapolis, the anticipation level among fans here in New York is getting pretty crazy.

Las Vegas bookmakers have picked the Giants to lose on Sunday, but coming in as the three-point underdogs (depending on the sportsbook) is just the way Big Blue likes it.

So, what should the G-men watch out for on Sunday, other than Tom Brady?

The answer here is something.

What to look for exactly is a crapshoot, as Patriots coach Bill Belichick or as his players call him “The Belistrator” surely has something up his sleeve.

And considering this Patriots team is by far Belichick’s most vulnerable group, you have to presume he didn’t come up with something this past week.

Now lets say the Pats do have a sneak attack, whether it will work who knows, but my guess is the Giants coach Tom Coughlin hasn’t wasted too much time inventing possible conspiracy theories.

Admittedly, I cannot say the same for myself as I did come up with one possible long shot.

And it’s the emergence of #85 Chad Ochocinco (Johnson).

I am well aware of how bad Ochocinco has been since arriving in New England, but the excuse of him getting to know the Patriots system in the beginning of the season is well passed its due date.

Ochocinco came to the Patriots as a six-time pro bowler, with 10 years experience as the star wide receiver of the Cincinnati Bengals. He is no slouch, as just ask any teammate of Ochocinco’s and they will attest to how hard he works. Continue reading ‘Super Bowl XLVI: New York Giants Need To Outsmart “The Belistrator”’ »

Move Over Yankees, New York Giants Rule This City

Wow, is all I can say.

Anyone who saw the NFC Championship Game featuring the New York Giants vs. San Francisco 49ers game would be hard pressed to say any different.

In the end the Giants won in OT 20-17, but the game was so inspiring because both teams fought with so much heart as it was a literal blood bath.

Undoubtedly it is easier as a Giants fan to say congratulations are in order for both teams, but that is the truth.

When you think about where the Giants were a few weeks ago, to now being crowned the NFC Champions and are Super Bowl bound; it is unbelievable.

It reminded me back on December 22 before the Jets game Giants DE Justin Tuck said:

“We got a lot of catching up to get to, what is it … 27 rings now the Yankees got? They run New York if you want to talk about running New York.”

Well, let me tell Justin Tuck that, as his Giants get ready to face the New England Patriots in Super Bowl XLVI in Indianapolis on February 5th that statement is starting to get old.

The New York Yankees might be the most decorated, but for now this town is all Giants because they earned it proudly. Continue reading ‘Move Over Yankees, New York Giants Rule This City’ »

New York Yankees: Stop Blaming, Start Winning And Shut-Up

New York Post - Back Cover- 12/20/11

Stop blaming, start winning and shut-up…. is a lesson both the New York Giants and Jets could learn from the New York Yankees.

Both the Jets and Giants represent New York and the NFL, but these professionals act more like spoiled brats who just talk the talk, but can’t seem to walk the walk.

Have you ever heard a Yankees publicly blame his teammates; or whine about lack of fan support after a loss?

Did anyone overhear Derek Jeter & Co. complaining about Alex Rodriguez’s playoff choke after the Yankees lost ALDS Game 5 this past season?

No, and even if Jeter thought it, as A-rod did blow three series-winning at-bats, it would have been for a passing second because the Yankees win and lose as a team.

See, even my mother knows that the Yankees play every game with all they got, so why can’t the Jets and Giants do the same?

Speaking as a Giants fan, what pisses me off is that the talent is clearly there, but the attitude doesn’t match-up. No one knows which Giants ‘team’ is going to show up that day. And the worst part is I don’t think the Giants players do either because they seem to give-up, instead man-up.

Look, the Giants are not alone here, as I am sure many Jets, Cowboys and Eagles fans feel the same way each week but that doesn’t excuse it.

So, this weekend other than a Giants shellacking of the Jets, I hope the game does not embarrass New York, two of the city’s loyal fan-bases and the game of football itself.

As reality is if both teams play like they did last Sunday, we are in for a turbulent four-quarters on Saturday.

NOW…. ABOUT THE G-MEN:

Let me clear one thing up, the Jets are not the Giants, just like the Mets are not the Yankees. Continue reading ‘New York Yankees: Stop Blaming, Start Winning And Shut-Up’ »
