ESPN clearly wants the Giants to win this. I can't wait for Belichick to piss on everyone's parade Sunday.

edit: I just cannot understand why ANYONE would bet against Brady/Belichick.

Give B&B a 2nd chance against a team after a loss, especially with the extra week to prepare, Pats are (almost) perfect in the past 10 years.

Yeah, the blue screen says it looks like the only Giant that won't practice today was Bradshaw, although Osi wasn't at the interviews.

They were talking about some guys on the Giants having the flu about an hour ago on ESPN.

Sounds like a play out of Belichicks playbook. Like Brady with the boot in 08. Hoping that it would distract the opposing team or something. The Pats are so focused it's crazy. Antrel Rolle said on NFL Network this morning that if they thought they would lose this game, they wouldn't have even gotten on the bus.

What's the point on stepping on the field if you don't plan on winning?

No I can agree where his head is at, of course you think your team will win. Just most guys don't go and say it publicly on Media Day in front of the press. Usually that stuff is kept in the locker room or at team meetings I would think.

I hear you. Don't think he really said anything out of line though. Way too much talk these last 2 days, I just want this weekend to get here.

And speaking of talking....2 things.

Tom Brady talking about how much he likes Jeter

and

Rodney Harrison saying Eli is the better QB right now (not as a career)

Yep, that slow of a day.

I don't see what the problem is. I'm a lifelong Red Sox fan and I like Jeter. I mean what's not to like. The guy is in the 3,000 club, he was Hall of Fame material a decade ago, bangs super hot chicks and seems like an overall good guy.

And Rodney Harrison doesn't play for the Pats anymore so he can have that opinion. Maybe Eli (statistically) is better. I haven't really compared the two side by side this season. I'm sure NBC isn't paying Rodney Harrison millions of dollars to side with NE everytime. The guy has to have an open mind.

True, true. I thought it was a pretty interesting thought. I haven't seen enough of Brady this year to have an opinion on the two but was suprised he said that.

Eli throws more picks than Brady.

Oh yeah and here's one for the bulletin board. I've made some outlandish remarks the last few days but here's another...Ocachino catches a TD.
