On your own today

I will be at my son’s soccer game today. I’ll be watching on my little hand-held TV, but I won’t be here to keep you guys in line LOL!!
So, you’re on your own today.
Enjoy the game!

Radio Broadcast

Does anyone know the place to get the radio broadcast over the net. Does the NFL black everything out except Sirius?

by nygiants2001 on Oct 5, 2008 12:17 PM EDT reply actions  

Sirius is it

Sorry man, but I am pretty sure sirius has exclusive rights. You can buy a monthly NFL Field pass for $9.99 and listen to it at NFL.com or $39 for the whole season. I looked into this year before buying the direct tv package.

I used this for a mets game or two. It worked. Not great audio, but I did get good video.

I had the sopcasts

but I don’t seem to find a channel with the game or audio
www.giants.com used to have the games, but it seems they are not doing it today

you may have to wait for game time before it pops on. Sometimes guys will stream the game, but only after the game starts.

Sorry if it is not working.

Had an awful dream that the Giants were up 14-6 at halftime, and were 31-6 up at the end of the 3rd

Maybe it’s a sign of things to come?

Big Game

Alright, big game today. Lets go GMEN!! Let the Eagles and Skins beat up on one another as we try to grab 4-0.

I know this is going to be gut-wrenching especially if Julius Jones gets off the block fast.

I still am not sure the ’Hawks WRs are 100% even though they are healthy enough to play. So if we blitz hard, I am scared Jones get some good runs off.

C’mon offense. Lets have a big game and exploit the CBs.

Giants WR

I feel like this is the first year ever where they have some WR speed threats. Seattle always seems to have injured WRs; it puts a lot of pressure on the Seattle DEF doesn’t it?

The giants have the opposite of home field advantage

I sear they get more penalties called on them at home then away.

by losangelesmets on Oct 5, 2008 1:25 PM EDT reply actions  

Except at Qwest Field (sorry, couldn't resist)

Just by that first drive alone I have a feeling they’re going to just pound the football, tire out the Seahawks defense and go in for the kill with the passing game.

anyone else listening to the game on Giants.com

and having a problem where the sound only comes out of one speaker? It’s driving me crazy, b/c every time there’s a big play it gets really fuzzy and I can’t hear what’s going on.

by cjmulrain on Oct 5, 2008 2:22 PM EDT reply actions  

whoa...don't know what just happened there

anyway: is it only coming out of one speaker for you too? I thought maybe my speaker was broken, but I tested out some music and they both worked fine, so it seems like it’s only the gamefeeed thing.

ok, thanks

normally I just go to the bar on days when the game won’t be on local TV down here, but I have a ton of work for class tomorrow so I need to stay in, and this is the only way I can follow the game. Figures…

Anyway, great first half. Now I’d like to see them keep it up, something it seems the Giants rarely do. No letting up, just blow them out.

When was the last time the Giants scored 40+ twice in one season?

by Woogie526 on Oct 5, 2008 3:36 PM EDT reply actions  

All I can say is wow.

I am always hopeful it is a blowout, but I know better. This was a complete dismantling of what some people called a good team. I am not going to say they are good or bad; frankly I dont think anyone knows given there injuries, but all I do know is that we were way better today. I hope the blogger from Hawks Hell or whatever blog he writes takes another look at his stats and figure out where the hell this game went wrong.

Here is a hint: The GMEN knocked you on your ass all day. Find a stat for that one.

Yards per carry? sacks? hurries? number of times Hassleback almost threw-up when he say Tuck in his face? Number of time Chris Snee Knocked a DL 3 yrds back on a snap? I don’t know, but I am sure he will find one.

Feel free to hit the Giants “right in the mouth” anytime, they seemed to handle it pretty well today. As I said earlier in the week, the Giants are not the Niners or Cardinals, the Giants hit back.

Seahawks got outplayed, outcoached and outclassed.

Wet Willies...

to Plax for missing out on a fun time?

to the kick coverage team for allowing an average of over 20 yards per return?

to Carney for kicking off out of bounds at the end of the first half?

to the weather forecast for being altogether wrong and making me wear the wrong clothes as a result?

to the Eagles and the Cowboys for letting the shitty Redskins into the division race?

by JoshNY on Oct 5, 2008 5:35 PM EDT up reply actions  

I'm glad

the Eagles and Cowboys lost to the Redskins, since we already beat them. Just gives us an extra leg up, especially if you really think the Skins are a worse team than those two. Personally, I’m not so sure, the Eagles have looked downright bad the last two weeks.

Hey guys, since I posted here before the game predicting a seahawks victory, thought

I had to come back and take my knocks.

That was a fuckin’ massacre! You guys are legit.

That said, the NFC West is truly a cesspit. The Seahawks still have a chance with an eminently beatable GB team at home next game.

Good luck versus the Browns, doubt you need it. The Giants are looking at 7-0, before they meet the Cowgirls. That’ll be a good game.

Oh yeah, and kill the Stealers.

Jeez, those guys are TOUCHY!

I have been called many things, drunk, lech, weed hoarder, bad singer, I’ve been accused of bad tipping, not putting the seat down, dosing my friends with acid, and not keeping the beer cold enough. (well, there might be some truth to the dosing claim)

But never, not once have I ever been called a Troll! I would never think that the west coast PC pansy mentality had risen all the way up to Seattle, I thought they were all hardy mountain bikers and rock climbers, guess not.

All I did was to quote J. Morgan and critique his assertions, and I was stoned with hard, brutal comments, Fortunately, i got it on video, and posted it up on youtube for all to see.

J. Morgan removed not my original comment, which incited accusations of Trolling, but my second comment, when I just pointed out that all I was doing was repeating what he wrote and critiquing it. Is that a football blog or the Ministry of Truth??

I should have saved it to a text file.

Let it go....

The gang over there isn’t much for humor, before or after losses. There is alot more I could say, but enough is enough. I think they have a long rest of the season ahead of them.

Time to focus on Cleveland.
