The Pope was going to address the crowd tonight from under the uprights. When asked about it Eli was hoping the speech would be from mid-field because he can't seem to find anyone in the end zone.
What does the Pope have that the Giants don’t?

A website. The giants can’t string three “Ws” together.

Some of these are funny, some are true, but not as funny.

Naming the No. 1 rival for all 32 NFL teams | For The Win

AFC West
Denver Broncos
Rival: Oakland Raiders
One of the few great AFC rivalries. Sure, it’s been lessened in recent years because of Oakland’s awfulness, but when Al Davis fired Mike Shanahan and Shanahan went to Denver, those games were as must-watch as NFL games get.

Excellent, if not quite correct. The "must-watch" games well preceded that, punctuated in their first Super Bowl year by Tommy Jackson running up to John Madden after the Broncos pounded the Raiders with spirited (and trick) playing and screamed, "It's all over, fat man!" Not the best behavior, and not something I'd endorse (although Jackson is great), but a volatile ingredient to a great rivalry.

It's also lessened in recent years because the Broncos felt they were psyching themselves up too much. "Raiders Week" was the practice sessions before every Raiders game. The Broncos decided they'd be better served to approach the game as they would any other.

Dear Football Gods,

Tomorrow I turn 25. On the 25th, no less. I'm certain this doesn't happen too many people that often, but I digress. All I want from the Football Gods is to wake up tomorrow knowing that the Giants have a win. I don't care the score. Be it 5-2 or 3-0 or even a score involving fractions or decimals. These are the Giants so I know anything is possible. (I'll wait until Christmas before I wish for an All Manning Super Bowl.)

Sincerely,

A Disconsolate Ginger Kid
