Giants Fans Meetup in Houston This Weekend
I got great response to the post I made last week about this week's game in Houston. I've already spoken to quite a few of you who will be there, including Hobie, who has generously offered to host a tailgate party that many of us Giants fans will be attending on Sunday morning.
However, no football game is complete without a pregame show, so ours will begin Saturday night (October 9th) at the Hooters on 59 and Kirby in Houston at 5 PM. (Click Here For Directions and Location)
There is already a good sized group of Giants fans who are confirmed to be there, we're going to have a great time. Don't forget to wear your Giants gear for the meetup Saturday night.
If you haven't already, shoot me an email at jrs1940@gmail.com and let me know if you can be there, and I'll give you my cell number in case you need to contact me.
Looking forward to meeting you guys.
Jim

By the way, I think after we all get there Saturday night, we will have to arrange a photo-op with the Hooters girls, as a memento of our trip.

Houston Traffic is so much fun..
I have heard mention on the News on more than one occasion about the horrific traffic getting to the games. So whom ever is braving that when you think your leaving early…..leave a bit earlier than that.
luckily our hotel is a mile from the Stadium

Remember the train...
It’s not the LIRR, but it’s a good way to get to the Stadium w/o having to deal with traffic…
Thanksgiving dinners take eighteen hours to prepare. They are consumed in twelve minutes. Half-times take twelve minutes. This is not coincidence.
WISH I could be there
Okay gentlemen, I haven’t posted in probably well over a year! My bad…but I still come and visit. I’m just north of Houston, in Waller, Texas, and work downtown surrounded by my boyfriend’s family and co-workers who are Houston fans. Personally, I detest Matt Schaub, he’s quite the titty baby and will cry if the Big Blue D comes anywhere near the pummeling they bestowed upon Cutler. Seriously. I pray that it happens, not praying for a concussion, but I hope that “D” shows up, they’ve been missed. I think Cushing will be on a ‘roid rage’ if he’s clean…and the smack talk here in the South, is bad. Partly because they believe Houston is “kicking a**”. I hardly define the spanking by the Cowgirls as “kicking a**”, but whatever. So, I digress…this is what I have to listen to. I wish I could join you guys – I’ll be at home in Waller trading punches with my “Texan fan” boyfriend…and packing to leave on a trip to the Hill Country next week. BUT, I will be in Toomer Jersey (still wish he was with us), text messaging with my little sister (on Long Island) yelling for our G-Men to pummel the Texans and, for Eli and the offense to show a little more muster than they did Sunday night. ;-)

Tailgate Sunday
OK everyone.. I have emailed Jim the map of our location, and he will print off a few and give to you at the meetup Saturday night. If you by chance want your own copy, please email me or send Jim an email so he can send it to you.
I look forward to seeing you all Sunday…
GO BLUE !!!
Giants fans gathering in Houston
Ive been a Giants fan here in Texas since birth. I have been surrounded by cowgirl fans way too long. Went to their stadium opener last year to watch giants dominate. Went to New Meadowlands opener this year to see Giants own the stadium. Jets are pretenders.
I will be there on Saturday. Going to game on Sunday. My wife’s entire family are Cowboy fans. Family visits are miserable.
Count me in!!!
Glad to see so many Giants fans here in Texas. Been a HUGE fan since 1985. As you can imagine I am surrounded by fans of the Crackwagonboys in Dallas. They disgust me to no end. Looking forward to meeting all of you.
Count Us In!!
We are stationed at Randolph AFB in San Antonio – originally from NY and NJ and we will be there Saturday night and Sunday for the game. Section 128, Row G!!!! Looking forward to the Giants kicking some TX butt!!!
anything planned for the game against Dallas
I live North of Dallas and have to put up with all these Cowpanty fans, sure wouldn’t mind watching/ going to a game with some other BIG BLUE fans.

Giants win
If the Offense show up, the Giants should win.
The Defense will be there, Hopefully, the special team will not give the game away.
And, for a change lets get more turnovers than give sways.
Bradshaw
I am hearing nothing out of Giants camp except Bradshaw is not practicing. If we have to play Houston without him we probably lose because we have no #2 back. Jacobs is a #3 at best and we can’t get rid of him because of his 3 million salary. Yes he had 66 yds on six carries against the Bears but that was late in the game and the Bears “D” had mostly packed it in. His reason last season for his poor performance was injuries but I don’t see any difference this year, he appears to be just hanging around to collect his 3 mil. So I hope those faithful who can afford to go to Houston get a well rested Bradshaw and not the Giants version of DeMarcus Russell(Jacobs).
Cowplops
Nothing would make me happier than the Girls going 1-15 and picking the 2011 version of Ryan Leaf as their draft pick. If Bradshaw can run, Eli returns to his normal self and the “D” performs as well as they did against the Bears(our ST improves) Houston is in big trouble. Close but the Giants win and the LI-cowgirl can crow.
Tailgate in Houston
Thaks to all of you who came out Sunday.. Great weather, great people and a great game !! It was a great day all around and it was my pleasure getting to meet all of you !!
Until our paths cross again ……………
Thanks to All
I’m glad I happened to walk past Hobie’s tailgating and was welcomed in by everybody – thanks! (#12 blue jersey) Hopefully I’ll catch you all next time the Gmen come to town.
Jeff
