Tynes

Is experiencing swelling because Coughlin probably whacked him in the knee with a lead pipe after practice Tuesday.

That's why he's the head coach.

Savvy old timer that Tom! I can see it now “let’s test that knee out Lawrence my boy……………….WHACK………..oops sorry ,that looks very painful we’ll have to see how this looks again next week, back to the trainers room son”.

We're only gonna score 17 points?

Hey

Here’s a nice quiet little forum!

Anyway, Giants players have been trying to do this for years … get the crowd noisy for a home game. Most Giant season ticket holders have been going since the Carter Administration & have to see something very dramatic to get fired up. I’m on my feet yelling more in front of my TV than I am at Giants Stadium, since no one else does it there. Good luck with that Shaun!

What

You don’t like noise and readers of different sites yelling at each other? LOL!

that thread brought back memories

of the playoff run. Speaking of which, has anyone heard from TruePatsFan, it’s been 8 months and not a peep. At least Terry has shown up a few times to take his lumps…

Same with me pot

I’m going to 3 reg games this year and the folks I’m with are annoyed by standing, yelling etc etc. Although after yesterdays outburst and all I’ll be a little louder than normal I think.

I'll never understand that

But I was raised in a, shall we say, “vociferous” house. If my Dad was going to the Gians game, it meant he was coming home with no voice, win or lose, and he probably wouldn’t be able to talk for a few days. I follow that tradition, be it at a Giants game, Mets game, or Rangers game. I never undertsood how people can just go to a game and sit on their hands for 3 hours.

Hopefully things will be different Sunday. The Giants will do themselves a big favor by coming out of the gate strong.
