PrintI know, I know. I need to get a life. What the heck am I doing posting a New York Giants notebook late on a Friday afternoon?
Anyway, came across a few items I figured I would get out to you now. So, here goes.
- Former Giants defensive line coach Mike Waufle has landed a job. I did not say he landed on his feet, but he is working again. Waufle is now defensive line coach for the Oakland Raiders.
- Ex-Giant Reuben Droughns apparently needed a way to cope with the pain of no longer being an NFL player. At least, apparently he told police something like that when they arrested him for allegedly growing marijuana inside his house.
- The surgery on Brandon Jacobs' knee apparently went well.
- Bill Cowher has no idea where Jerome Bettis got the idea that Cowher wants to coach the Giants. The Chin says he has not spoken to Bettis in two years.

Well it was just his opinion.
I don’t think anyone ever said this information was credible.

No it was more than just his opinion. He said that this was the place he always wanted to be and that Cowher is very close to the Mara family.
That’s more than an opinion he’s speaking as if he’s heard Cowher say he’d like to coach the Giants by saying this is the place he’s always wanted to be.
Then for Cowher to come out and say he hasn’t spoken to Bettis in 2 years tells me Bettis was talking out of his you know what.

Have we ever, in the history of sports, heard of a surgery that didn’t go well.
And for the readers, I got an email today from a wife of a die hard jets fan. She is convinced he has gone over the line in terms of fanhood, and would like my judgement on the subject. She lays out her case, the things he does are AMAZING. She then asks for my advice, I will post it soon so you can see just how die hard a fan can be, his “stuff” as she refers to is unreal.
Don't forget Tom Brady's surgery
The initial surgery had to be repaired once or twice. The complications were pretty serious.
funny point
“surgery went terribly”

Oh one more thing
My email address is actually not listed on how to contact me which means somehow this woman tracked me down, she is desperate for answers, and terrified of her own husband. As sports guy would say “these are my readers.”
Lastly I think Wauffle was out best assistant. I was very surprised he was let go and even more surprised everyone else is still on board. Of course that may change soon.
Secondary coach and special teams coach absolutely have to go
You play to win the game!

the linebackers coach….hes a JOKE!!!!
Hey Brandon,
make sure you bring your doctor’s note to training camp to show all the non believers who thought you were dogging it because you “got your money”.
Never thought of Reuben as a weed head....
Don’t cops have better things to do?
You've got to be very careful if you don't know where you are going, because you might not get there- Yogi

“I loved when Bush came out and said, ‘We are losing the war against drugs.’ You know what that implies? There’s a war being fought, and the people on drugs are winning it.”

Interesting odds and ends...
Ed, sounds like ’ol Reuben needs a life..We buy foreclosures and I fix and sell them..Well, my Wife went and looked at one and said it was nice but she said it was rather weird because the previous owners tore out two walls and installed air conditioning units on each end..So I went and looked at it and it turned out to be a “Grow House”..The house foreclosed because they are currently receiving “Three hots and a Cot” at the County Jail..
Glad to see Wauffle landed a job, but we have to wish him lots of luck dealing with those nit-wits out there..
Also glad to hear that BJs surgery went well..Hopefully his playing will go well this season..
big mike

LOL, you're a pisser, Bobbi
Stop wating all this material on BBV. Write a novel or some short stories springboarding from your life experiences. It would be hilarious I’m sure.
Well George..it is funny that you mention this...
There have been alot of people that have suggested the same thing…I actually met with a guy who wanted me to consider to do a whatcha-call-it…“Stand-up Comedy Routine”..When I mentioned to him that I assume you have to be able to actually be able to “Stand Up” in order to do it..He laughed his ass off (he’s still bugging me about it)..When I read all these younger guys talking about the draft..they know more damn names than I ever heard of..There’s even kids out here modelling our teams needs by playing Madden video games..My kids have that but I have no idea how to even operate the daggone game controllers…However, there may be an idea here..If we could get those controllers plugged into the asses of our defense, then perhaps we could have our kids direct them on the field with a joystick.
