Well, as a lifelong Giants fan I must say Sunday's game was painful to watch. With half of their all-Pro defense missing and Tiki Barber shut down so that the Giants had to rely entirely on Eli Manning's throwing which was sorely lacking, the Giants looked like a high school team. But there's always next year and really, for such a young team, the Giants played way better than we had any right to expect. They'll be back. Hopefully, during the offseason, they will concentrate on building up their offensive line. If this unit can open holes and protect Manning, the Giants' offense will improve immeasurably and with the defense back they will again be a playoff-team. Now, for this year I suspect that the NFC will be won by one of the wildcards--either Washington or Carolina--and the AFC will go to Denver. We shall see.
In other news, Newsmax is commenting that five congressional Democrats want Bush impeached for his "spying" program. There are five very good reasons Newsmax should ignore their tripe. It is as follows:
5. It only gives these blowhards a bully pulpit for their stupidity.
4. It only encourages them if they think people are listening.
3. It gives the impression that conservatives are running scared, desperate to keep their hold on power.
2. It makes it sound as if impeachment is a sure thing because a minority's minority want it. Remember the Clinton years!
1. It's pointless to worry because a Bush impeachment puts Dick Cheney in the president's seat. Not something to be seen as an improvement from a liberal point of view.
