Wednesday Walk Around The League 8-6

Our man ‘jrs’ mentioned the Fan Code of Conduct.’ Here it is, in its entirety, for those of you who will be attending games or giving away tickets.

“The National Football League and its teams are committed to creating a safe, comfortable, and enjoyable experience for all fans, both in the stadium and in the parking lot. We want all fans attending our games to enjoy the experience in a responsible fashion. When attending a game, you are required to refrain from the following behaviors:

· Behavior that is unruly, disruptive, or illegal in nature

· Intoxication or other signs of alcohol impairment that results in irresponsible behavior

· Foul or abusive language or obscene gestures

· Interference with the progress of the game (including throwing objects onto the field)

· Failing to follow instructions of stadium personnel

· Verbal or physical harassment of opposing team fans

“Event patrons are responsible for their conduct as well as the conduct of their guests and/or persons occupying their seats. Stadium staff will promptly intervene to support an environment where event patrons, their guests, and other fans can enjoy the event free from the above behavior. Event patrons and guests who violate these provisions will be subject to ejection without refund and loss of ticket privileges for future games.”

How dare you Rog ? I understand your conduct policy involving say, teams driving drunk in the heartland, alleged murderer’s and the like but give us poor overpaying fans a break. Giants stadium routinely fills up with Cow(pie) fans at the game and I can’t under your royal decree give them the raspberries? Ok I have a couple of beers tailgaiting and get one on the way to my seat, no matter,one , two or ten I smell like a brewery ,happen to give the Bronx cheer to a Dallas fan taunting me( it seems only the home team must be cordial) and I get a flag thrown at me or possibly a sea of the friendly yellow shirted staff at Giants stadium rushing me all the while this is up on the Jumbotron (possibly headed for the Back page of the Post). Meanwhile I calmly explain that I’m not F*&%ing drunk and Commandment number 3 has been violated. While being contorted in to submission by the Troopers called to wrestle the commandment violating malcontent my plastic topless bottle tumbles harmlessly from my grip only to have flag number 4 thrown my way. Now I’m up to the FRONT of the Times and possibly National news. Meanwhile in Oakland Al Davis says screw you Godell and supplies free beer to the fans who have gone completely Wild as the world at large watches in horror at the trouble maker from Jersey makes World news tonight…...................
Nope ,up yours Rog , I’m buying that recliner with the built in beverage holder and remote!
On a happier note : great full back article, I still after last years performance can not believe the Rams would part with Madison Hedgecock .

Oughta be real interesting when I go to Arizona for the game

I still think that the Giants could use an upgrade at QB. Now, the Bucs have a lot of ‘em (Garcia/Griese/l McCown/C Simms) – and IF Favre goes to the bucs (as talks between the two teams seem to be escalating (reported on ESPN this morning, at least) – then what’s the depth chart? Is Griese then the #3 guy? Does Garcia demand a trade? I think this is worth keeping an eye on for the Gmen because this could be a quick/cheap way to vastly upgrade the backup qb position.
