Super Bowl Weekend is creeping up on us. It reality, these two weeks have seemed like forever and it isn’t even over yet. I’d rather the NFL went back to playing one week after the Conference Championship game. So much of nothing has occured.
I know we’re in the playoffs and winning or losing against New England does not matter but you know our defense is not going to rest in peace against Brady and company. No matter what, Tom Brady is going to get a taste of the home turf due to a Giants brutal defensive frontline.
Congratulations to Osi Umenyiora for being named to the 2007 NFC Pro Bowl team. I wish more Giants were named. Five Giants were named as alternates: Plaxico Burress, Jeremy Shockey, Chris Snee, Michael Strahan, and Jeff Feagles. Too bad they didn’t get selected…
