Default Giant Meltdown.

Did anyone see that game? The Giants had the game in hand with a 21-0 lead in the fourth. It was like watching a slow motion car crash.

Default Giants..

I watched as much as I could...I saw the meltdown process begin when they started to get careless after the 21 points....The titans started gaining yards here and there...My last words were "OH SH^%$T!!Here we go"!!

Oh man, if there is a god, he shown down on me yesterday to ease my pain. For some strange reason, I thought the Giants played Monday, so I spent all of Saturday as well as Sunday (up to 7 PM) blowing out the sprinklers, changing the water in the Hot Tub, cleaning out the shed, putting the Pool/Lawn furniture away, cutting the lawn, pumping out the extra water from the pool and most improtantly putting up the outside Christmas lights and decorations.

Sunday, Karin and I finally sat down to leftover re-heated Turkey for Dinner when my son called from Florida wanting to console me. Boy was I surprised I am so gald I didn't have to sit through that whole thing. It would be much like having Open Heart Surgery with no anisthetic

Makes the Dallas game HUGE


Thanks for the thoughts

When I saw that they had a commanding 21-0 lead, I commented to my grandfather, I bet they blow it, he should not watch anymore, his heart can't take it

I'm all for the meltdown. Puts the big "D" in sole possession of the NFC east (for the time being). However, I think Dallas is going to have trouble with the Giants next week. The Giants are going to be looking for a rebound harder than Britney come sunday.

It was amazing how that defensive lineman, #97, was about to sack titan's QB then just stopped and walked away.

Bob,

Not watching may have eased the agony of Sunday, but waking up Monday and realizing it was true and also reading there were two INT's when you had a 21 point lead is pathetic What the F would you be throwing for

Talk about a crash and burn season.......


For sale -- 4 Tickets to Dallas Cowboys / NY Giants ------ $1200

And Chris..... You can run but you can't hide. You think you know everything about your friends, and then this

Puh-lease! Welcome to my world.

In all of my adult life, including 10 years as a season ticket holder, the Jets have made a living out of 2nd half collapses.

You do need balance in life.

When I first became a fan, the Yankees really stunk, and the Jets were really good.

Then again, I am almost as old as Ed.

I know and I feel your pain The Giants are noted for their ability to choke at the most inopportune points in games with Dallas, San Francisco (several times...damn you Montanna to Rice), Rams etc.

Remember, MISERY LOVES CONPANY. Three Cheers for NY Football
