Adam "Pacman" Jones is a putz
So, Adam Jones got cut by the Cowboys and another talented guy throws it all away. One of his quotes after being cut, according to ESPN, was "I love me some me."Apparently, this expression was made popular by Terrill Owens (also a member of the 'Boys...
Quiet week
Not much happening in Yankee stuff for the last few weeks, and with the Giants having a bye week, it has been slow here at Yankee Fan Central.I'm not a huge college football fan, with little more than a passing interest in the major bowl games. Didn'...
The Sports Event of the Year
What was the biggest event of 2008?There were 3 huge sports stories: The Phillies WS win, the Giants Super Bowl win, or the Patriots undefeated regular season.I would eliminate the Patriots for 2 reasons: 1. I hate Boston and 2. They lost the biggest...
Giants lose last regular season game
Why bother to play the game at all? Giants rested most regulars for at least half the game. And they almost pulled it out. In a way, I was happy, knowing the game meant nothing to the G men and everything to the Vikings so I was glad I got to see the...
Giants Beat Carolina in OT
In an absolute battle against Carolina with home field advantage through the playoffs on the line, the Giants won 34-28 in an overtime battle against the Panthers. The Giants came from behind in the 4th quarter at the Meadowlands, and a wind blown Ca...
Yankees rotation falling in place, Hot Stove Report
With the signings of CC Sabathia and AJ Burnett, the Yankee rotation is looking pretty strong. They also lead the league in starting pitchers with initials instead of names.As of now, the big 3 starters are CC, AJ, and Wang. Hughes, Joba Chamberlain,...
Giants win; Plaxico Burress a moron
The defending champion Giants looked great against Washington, and improved to 11-1. They used a balanced attack as Manning threw for 300+ yards and a TD as the 'Skins focused on stopping Brandon Jacobs. Eli simply used Boss as an out to slow down t...
Giants and Jets win; Super Bowl in future?
The Giants now are tied for the best record in football following their hard fought victory over the Cardinals 37-29. The game was close, and the Giants needed to rely on Manning's arm more than they have recently as he completed 26 of 33 for 240 yds...
Giants win again 30-10
As a long time Giants fan, I have no real complaints. Big Blue has been to the Super Bowl 4 times, and come home with the trophy 3 of those times, most recently last year. But usually, they were the Rodney Dangerfield team, they got no respect. Sure,...
Yankees start to rebuild
The Yankees acquired slugging switch hitting first sacker Nick Swisher in exchange for Wilson Betemit and a couple minor league pitchers.Swisher turns 28 in a few days, so he should just be coming into his prime. While the Yankees have always been kn...
Jets and Giants win
The Giants won a battle against the Eagles Sunday night, while the Jets pounded St. Louis. The game was over by half time. The free agent baseball market will be in full swing soon. Manny Ramirez is one of the stars seeking employment. It's kind of i...
Giants and Jets win
The Giants battled the Steelers finally picking up a 21-14 win. This was a challenge for the G-men against a premiere team. The Steelers managed to shut down the Giants running game, and the highlight was a late first quarter goal line stand, stoppin...
Giants win; Stupid Red Sox probably will
The Giants took care of the 49'ers today 29-17, in a game that wasn't as close as the final score. The Niners scored once on a blocked punt, so the G-men's offense really held them to only 10 points.The Jets are playing the Raiders in the late (4:00)...
What's the deal with throwback Jerseys?
Last year this stupid thing started. The Jets were among the many teams that participated and played in the uniforms of the Titans, which was the original AFL team.The team developed the nickname "Gang Green" and here they are wearing blue and gold. ...
Giants Pound the Seahawks
The G-Men came to play today. They still have not allowed a first quarter TD, and the Giant offense is running like a well oiled machine as they put up 44 points against the Seahawks. The defense continues to prove stifling as they held the potent 'H...
Playoff update
As I sit here and watch the Cubs- Dodgers series, I can only think that Torre and Piniella were both fired from the Yankees.This confirms what has been said all along by so many--the manager doesn't win or lose the games. No less than the great Earl ...
J*E*T*S Jets Jets Jets
I'm a total Giants fan, but I have been rooting for the Jets for a few years, too. I mean, if they play each other, it's not even close. My loyalties are with the Big Blue Wrecking Crew.I just sort of feel sorry for the Jets. They are tenants in Gian...
Update Week 3
The Giants moved to 3-0 with an OT victory against the Bengals. Eli Manning drove the team in the final minutes of the second half to force the OT. I was hoping they would make the game less exciting with a blowout, but perhaps the Bengals are a bett...
G-Men rout the Rams
Ok, it was only the lowly Rams, but damn did the Giants beat the hell out of them. Final score was 41-13. Just seemed like the Giants scored whenever they wanted to do so. Justin Tuck, a defensive lineman, intercepted a pass and returned it for a tou...
Weekly catch up
It is just about over for my Yankees. Even if they run the table, it will take a complete collapse by the Sox and Twins.Fortunately, both the Giants and the Jets are off to a great start as the G-Men took care of the Redskins on Thursday's opening ga...
Giants vs Redskins tonight
The Super Bowl Champion NY Giants (who play their home games in NJ, BTW) open up tonight against the Washington Redskins.Can Eli Manning lead the team to back to back Super Bowl wins?I wouldn't bet on it, but I'll be rooting them all along the way. ...
Are you ready for some football?
It's looking bad for my favorite pinstriped team. So, I'm starting to look toward Fall, and my defending champion G-Men.First thing, the injuries have started. Osi Umenyiora is out for the season. He is scheduled for surgery this week. The talk is St...
