First off, Shockey was with the Giants 5 years, he never noticed they don’t have cheerleaders?

Second of all, Jeremy, shut up.

Third of all, Cowboys-Redskins hasn’t been a great rivalry since the early 90’s. this guy Mosely must be related to Skip Bayless.

Fourth off, I read the Myers column yesterday, and he is spot on. I’m not Jewish, but even I can see this is just insane. I don’t care how much resitution this company has made, you just cannot let this company have naming rights.

Ok, I have to run, I am off to the Michael Vick Humane Society to adopt a dog, and from there a workout at the Roger Clemens Fitness Center for a Clean Healthy Body.

Someone made a good point on a post at another site that if Kiwi & Ward (who were also hurt & out of SB) received a specific invitation to the parade, then Shockey was wronged. What’s more likely however is that there was no specific invitation … it was probably expected that they’d just show up since they are on the team! Please Jeremy, grow the F up.

Great news on Kiwi. Let’s hope the Giants play well, so he can get some rest later in the game.

“"OUR” (ha) new stadium being named to the highest bidder no matter what the circumstance…………………….at least it’s not Tampax .
 Wellington is rolling in his grave.

Just like everyone else, Shockey won me over in is early years with the Giants. Than came all the injuries. He wasn’t the realible TE any more. He can say what he wants about the media, and that the fans only believe what they read, I’m not an expert, but i did see a difference in Eli after the injury. He played better and he had complete control over the offense. He was now the only leader for the offense. Shockey has to deal with the fact that he has a SB ring that he didn’t earn, no wonder why he talks sh#t about the Giants….Get over it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

cheerleaders? Seriously? You’d think a guy like him would have noticed that the Giants have none. That said, if the Giants really did tell him not to be on the field for the Super Bowl, then I forgive him a little tiny bit, b/c a lot of us made a big deal about how he wasn’t on the sidelines. Maybe Coughlin didn’t give him a choice.

About the naming rights thing, maybe I’m a little insensitive, but I don’t know if I see the big deal. You’d be very hard pressed to find a German corporation that doesn’t have at least some ties to the Nazis and the Holocaust, since Hitler more or less nationalized the entire country. BMW made the engines for the German air force, Mercedes Benz provided almost the entire vehicle fleet of the Nazi Party, etc. At this point, everyone who was involved in that would be long gone from the company, which has attempted to make restitution for its actions. Consider this: Wachovia Bank was built on the foundation of American Slave labor, but nobody complains about them having their name on 2 Philadelphia sports arenas. Now, all of that said, for the amount that the Jets and Giants owners are squeezing out of the fans for these stadiums, it seems to me like they should have the good sense to maybe take a little bit less money from a local company and avoid any controversy.

im afraid i dont see the point of punishing allianz in this instance. the big blunder is the bank not changing their name after WWII, because really, anything related to germany can remind people of the holocaust, so that arguement is bogus to me. its not like people think of nazis when they hear about allianz, at least no one did before all the articles started getting written about them.

based on the history of the company, it just doesn’t smell right, especially with the largest Jewish community in the country in the local area.

Green Giant is the best corporate sponsor for that stadium,

Or JetBlue! LOL, just thought of that one

The Giants and Jets are no longer negotiating with Allianz….Auf wiedersehen

A company that was affiliated with the terrorists who were responsible for the 9/11 tragedy wants their name on Giants Stadium. For many years they have apologized for their complicity.

Should we let them put their name on the stadium?

I heard an interview with LT in which he said that, when he played, the biggest Giants’ rivalry was with the Eagles.
