Let's All Remember Why We Are Here

Ed i have alot of respect to u hell the one opinion i love hearing is urs which is why im on this site not some other giants site keep it up

Best damn darn Giants news site on the web

Can I still say bad things about Flozell Adams?

It’s like warehouse workers who have the boards up keeping track of how many days they go w/ out an incident…..

not for nothing but we were on a roll there….

but that’s all right. These things gotta happen every five month or so, ten months. Helps to get rid of the bad blood.

(see what I did there?)

I have noticed a lot of new names here, and they may be used to the status quo of the usual blog behavior. ‘Round here we don’t play that stuff. Ed, whatever happened to that writer you hired last season? I remember like one or two articles from him, and then it was a wrap! Since the site is growing, you should have more writers here. I think too much is falling on yours, and CJ’s shoulders. Plus you running sbnation new York now, your gonna get worn out fast!

now let’s talk some Giants Football

Been reading this blog for a couple years, and just started commenting. It used to be my 4th Giants website, to check, but now it’s my 1st. Keep it up, and can’t wait for the season.

Unless Gilbride regresses this season all bets are off.

“I see less and less interaction with the site from some of the long-time members…. partially because of the disrespectful tone of some of the comments that have been sneaking their way into our discussions each day.”

I am not sure how long-time I am, but when that stuff starts, I go elsewhere.

UNLESS is it about Flozell (Watch My Legs) Adams.

Thanks Ed.

I’m sure i’ve used hel-lo more than once and a-hole but only to describe a decision or situation not a person but I will omit these from now on. If I offended anyone I apologize. Mike Senior

I was going to publish a fanpost to address this issue. But now I don’t have to. Thanks Ed.

I’ll raise my arm and accept the incorrectly categorized “anatomy size” comment…

BUT…I was in no way whatsoever commenting in the context that is being implied. I was joking around about a spokesman of a certain “pharmaceutical” and his attitude…not his anatomy. I think the system auto-flagged the comment and I sent of an email to Ed explaining that I have to much respect for him, all of you fans that make the site what it is, and the NY Giants. I have yet to receive a reply from BBV and I am shocked to read this article because I think I have always acted in a manner well within the terms that I agreed upon joining.

Along the same line…I was the person who was called an asshole. I am assuming the response was intended to draw me into a battle but I ignored it.

Just not commenting. The tone of comments was getting too adversarial and I just don’t like getting caught up in it. I also don’t have the time, anymore. I do still enjoy reading the well thought out pieces, but have steered clear of the increased negativity in the comments section. You are still one of my top sites along with Inside Football and BBI. Keep up the good work.

I just found my hawkeyes sbnation page blackheartgoldpants thank the lord

But I’m responsible for 117,000 pageviews per month

Such a classy site very fun to be a member, I have to admit I cut a hilarious back and forth posting series the other day and pasted it into an email for a buddy at work….Of course I let him know where it came from and he visits here off an although he’s a Steelers fan.

Such a pleasure to be able to do that and know that intelligence and hilarity can work sans the vulgarity.

And Bomar is back on the Practice Squad, so let’s all be happy!

I luv this site. I run a marina here in southwest FL. Needless to say its very slow in the summer months. This site has provided me with endless hours of great news and conversations about our beloved NY GIANTS. This site offers everything all the other sites dont 1st and foremost on this list is mature conversations. Thanks for all the hard work. Lets go G MENNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN!

There’s just too many comments for me to keep up with. The comments section frequently turns into its own message board instead of comments on the articles, but there’s not really any way to make that work.

Incredibly excited/nervous/anxious to see the Gmen play a real game. Let’s talk about that and shift our focus to what hopefully will be the start of a great season.

 Yup Eds gotta do this every now and again. Keep the site on lock Ed appreciate the excellent material. Looking forward to finally reading my order of the Maples Time Press, been stuck on the boat, but I got 5 days to get through it for Game One.

You nailed it Ed. I was trying to keep up and post on the Knicks site as well…but the maturity level over there is nowhere near what it is here. Needless to say, I barely go there anymore.

I think that it’s clear that Ed is the real Comish. Thanks for keeping BBV clean Ed. Without a doubt the best site for everything Giants.

ranked us 19th….

Big Blue View

It’s like people think he’s not gonna find out what happened while he was gone???

And as for you Mr. Valentine… you can cross that leave cleaning at the camp in October thing off your Honey-Do-List right now!!!

like rex ryan said, LOL

I used to read PFT but got tired of all the stupid comments by people bashing every team and player except their own. I love it here!

But the only blog on the internet with rules, and the only blog worth reading. Period.

While I’m not, by any stretch, a “long time member”, haven’t been here since the beginning, nor am I sure I’ve helped to make the community great, I have interacted less – in part – exactly because of what you were discussing. I’m glad that our compass has pointed back towards the right direction, and thanks for bringing it up.
This place should be a place for engaging football discussions, maybe with some bantering here and there.
And the ‘asshole’ references, along with the ‘ding dong length’ references, all of that kind of stuff – there just isn’t a need for it, and it doesn’t enhance anything, because we need to be discussing all things football.
Thanks for reiterating (look it up) it to the new members. IMO this has always been a ‘stand up’ joint and the discussion has been in-depth enough that I’ll bet the team takes a peak over here every now and then, maybe even for ideas.
Don’t be afraid, for one second, to put the boot on and start kickin.

Just joined yesterday because this looked like a place for intelligent discussions about this team. Guess I picked the right place after all! :)

Best Giants site on the web.

Sometimes the law needs to be laid down every once in a while.

Thanks for everything Ed!

as well as G Brit etc

I do not see the need to swear or insult other people let alone fellow Giants fans.

I find it a shame that society accepts swearing etc as part of normal conversation acceptable. The Rex Ryan outburst on Hard Knocks is a prime example – was his message clearer because he swore, did it have more impact on the players – in my view no.

So Ed keep banging on about the guidelines to keep the site as it is so that people like SUN etc can contribute on a daily basis.

As for the rest of us a little more decorum is all that is needed and to remind anyone of the house rules if they step out of line.

I’ve been poping back in now and then but there were alot of new people kind of causing tension… Glad football is back and i hope the GMEN get some wins so we can all be happy again, also about to have a new edition to the gmen fan club, my baby daughter will be here by the 16th.. let’s if she will do her daddy a solid and come in the middle of the week, no sundays ;)

I find your blog to be unusable/impossible to participate in because while I’ve watched meadowlands/NY ball all my life and love the Giants, I am a Jets fan first. And posting here I pay dearly for it.

This is understandable, there aren’t many people out there with secondary teams, and this is an ego filled game, even for the spectators. But I am so sick of being expected tolive up to others standards. Guess what? I like a crappy team and probably appreciate the sport as a whole more than you do. I could watch the Browns versus the Bucs and still be thrilled. Sorry I’m not partisan or single minded in nature.

Anyway, just a reminder that maturity also means accepting foreign perspectives and respectful opinions with dignity.
