Wednesday Walk Around the NFL: Goodbye 2008 Edition

Wednesday_walk_468_medium

Good Morning Giants fans, as we say goodbye to 2008, let's take one last look at the stories making headlines around the NFL before we usher in 2009:

Final NFL thoughts:

All the names being tossed around for available jobs, and still no mention of Jim Fassel. He had run his course with the Giants, no doubt about that, but I still find it strange he never got another head coaching job.

"The Wildcat" is fun to watch, and the Dolphins do it very well. How do you game plan for that on defense when you never know what the Dolphins are going to do? It seems like they never do the same thing twice.

Finally, on this day, I will quote Colonel Potter from M*A*S*H:

"Here's to the New Year, may she be a damn sight better than the old one"

I wish all of you the healthiest and happiest New Year,  thank you to Ed for the opportunity to share my thoughts on the Giants and everything else, and I thank all of you for actually reading what I write.

Onward to 2009!

You nailed Dallas

They were 2 bad losses away from anarchy! Nice call on that one.

What's really funny is...

If you go back and read the comments to my preview of the Cowboys, Ed posted a link to a Cowboys blog that mentioned the story. Go read some of those comments, they are really funny. Those Cowboy fans blasted me at the time, turns out I was at least partially right about some of the things I said about Dallas.

We always knew

The Cowboys would either be great, or that they would choke on their own egos. They choked on their egos, and the fact that they have no real head coach.

2 bad losses

Baltimore and Philadelphia. That was an eerily right-on preview, man. Now you can go over there and take a poo on the star and you won’t hear a peep out of those dejected morons.
Many times now I’ve tried to find archives of all the pundicks who had the Cowboys crowned while the Giants languished at the bottom of the division. It would make me smile to read. The other day Mosley even made a little joke about how they’ve all buried their preseason previews. JRS, maybe you should email that post to ESPN and replace one of their idiots.

You play to win the game!
