Saturday’s Giants News: Sad Shockey?
According to Ralph Vacchiano of the New York Daily News, wrote a post on his blog called The Blue Screen about how there are rumors out there about how unhappy Shockey is with his role on the Giants. According to Vacchiano,
There are rumors - lots and lots of them - that he’s unhappy in New York and would welcome a trade. One friend of his recently said he’s expressed a frustration with his role in the offense and with the way it’s been portrayed in New York that the Giants’ Super Bowl run started when he got hurt. He’s also apparently a little worried that if the offense tanks next season, people will blame him.
Paul Schwartz of the New York Post, wrote a post in his blog called Giants Blog about Shaun O’Hara, the Giants’ player representative, is unhappy with some of Gene Upshaw’s recent remarks.
New York Daily News:
Eli Manning wants Jeremy Shockey, hopes it’s mutual - Ohm Youngmisuk covered the same story that the New York Post covered yesterday about Eli Manning wanting Jeremy Shockey back.
New York Post:
GIANTS: SHOCK NOT ON BLOCK - Paul Schwartz reminds us that Shockey trains in Miami in the offseason. Nothing new is in this article.
New York Times:
Gumbel Resigns From NFL Network - Richard Sandomir reported that Bryant Gumbel resigned from the NFL Network on Friday. Somebody needed to terminate that relationship. As great as the NFL is, the NFL has created one of the worst channels ever. The NFL Network should be able to hire the cream of the crop because they are the NFL. It is in their control, unlike how FOX puts Joe Buck and Troy Aikman out there which is an embarrasement out of the NFL’s control.
