New Jersey Giants week: Ribbed tank tops and glamour rock


SCP

Recommended Posts

13-0 is a magical thing.  The only thing missing from Sunday’s ass whipping was a picture of Matt Ryan shitting his pants on the field.  What a bunch of soft quitters.  Matt Ryan personifies what the Falcons and Falcon fans have become.  A bunch of braided belt wearing, PT Cruiser driving Nancy’s in sweater vests that brag about a participation trophy they got when they were 9.  Even the handful of dumb ass Falcons fans in attendance on Sunday had to resort to rooting for Panther player injuries because their team was so damn pathetic.  I was at the game so I finally watched the broadcast last night and I kept hearing John Lynch say the Falcons were still “learning a new offense”.  Are you fugging kidding me?  It’s week 14.  The Falcons offense was ranked in the top 10, right?  All summer we had to hear about how Shanahan and Meg Ryan were “in the lab” mastering and fine tuning this dynamic offense.  The Falcons won the draft and free agency, remember that narrative?  Well LMFAO!!!!!  What I saw on Sunday was a straight up beat down.  The Falcons are softer than that Croc-wearing milquetoast vegan Spaniard-American that used to post here and brag about his taekwondo skills on his iPad Mini while waiting in the drive-thru line for his large fries and two Wendy’s side salads with light ranch.  To hell with the Falcons.  I will be in Atlanta on December 27th to see those clowns once again.  It’s time for the Panthers to cross that next bridge and head north to the land of Chris Christie and 500lb women that sweat in the middle of winter.  

Our next contest will come against the New Jersey Football Giants.  A storied franchise with 5 Super Bowl rings and a legion of LA Gear leather jacket wearing fans that are as obnoxious as they are loud.  According to recent on-line marketing research, Giant fans are the only people in America that still actively search for Reebok High Top Freestyle's (google that poo) when shopping on-line  The Giants have a large fan base.  No matter where you live or visit in the United States, you will see plenty of unemployed looking people in Giants gear walking around with a limp most likely caused by a sebaceous cyst festering between their ass cheeks.  They speak in a strange dialect and say things like “worter” (water) and “Nevahder” (Nevada) and “fuggitaboutit” (nevermind).  When they played the Dolphins on Monday night there must have been 40,000 New Jersey Giant fans in that everglades shithole of a stadium.  Some are as pasty white as the driven snow and others have that leathery tan skin look highlighted by a thick gold plated necklace with a huge medallion dangling in their chest hair.  They shave every other week and do not have a problem farting in line at the K&W cafeteria and to a man they think New Jersey natives are God’s gift to the world.  The last time New Jersey played at BofA stadium I had to listen to a mongoloid looking dickbag scream “G-men!” the entire time he was tailgating out of the trunk of his ’84 Datsun 140J Wagon.  I don’t know if it was the meth mouth and the lazy eye or the dirt stained 1985 Giants windbreaker but he looked like the illegitimate son of Rosanne Barr and Pachanga from Carlito’s Way.

The guy was playing Bon Jovi’s greatest hits on a Panasonic RX-4930 Boom Box and eating Totino’s pizza rolls like they were Skittles.  He was loud and proud walking into the stadium then we proceeded to sack Eli Maninng about 147 times.  Bye bye Datsun.  All that was left when I returned to the lot was an oil stain and a Vanilla Ice cassette tape that fell out of his cassette tape storage case.

If you are from the Carolina's, you have seen this in person at local diners numerous times:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pWC0sKCS5oA

For years we were able to contain small populations of New Jersey Giant fans in places like Cary, NC and North Charleston, SC.  But over the last decade Dell Webb has been the Pied Piper tooting his flute all around the Carolina's.  Building mixed-use retirement communities and advertising in places like The Villages down in central Florida.  Like a Jersey housewife to a light at the make-up sales counter in Dillard's, Giants fans have flocked to the Carolina's.  The older fuggers are moving up here from Florida to get away from the heat and the sexually transmitted diseases that run rampant through their retirement communities.  Their sons and daughters and nieces and nephews are moving south from New Jersey in the name of warmer winters and cheaper tobacco products.  A tidal wave of Ben-Gay and nylon track suits has collided with a tidal wave of Brut cologne and cheap gold plated metal products and ground zero is the greater Charlotte region.  You can’t walk into a Walmart without hearing some guy named Benny from the Bronx bitching to the cashier about how the store in Newark carries more varieties of Axe Body Spray.  The Carolina roads are crammed with rusted out 1984 Pontiac Fiero’s with New Jersey plates because Giants fan refuses to register his car in this “fugging hick state”.  So the next time you visit a local diner for breakfast and you see the guy in a Giants tshirt with a confused look trying to figure out what grits are and complaining about how backwoods we are down here, go shake his hand and buy him a sweat tea.  After all it’s tough to assimilate into society when you are so much better than the locals.  But thanks in small part to his tax dollars we were able to get some pretty nice renovations at BofA stadium.  For that I am grateful.

As for the game this Sunday I am expecting a pretty tough competition.  Our depth in the defensive backfield will be tested.  Pundits and fans point to the success the Giants had in the recent Dolphins game but that Dolphins team is being coached by a guy who started out the season as the sideline “Get Back” coach.  That Dolphins team is horrible.  Our front seven is going to show up this week.  Eli is getting the ball out quicker but I think we pressure him big time up the middle.  One WR is not going to beat this Panthers team.  OBJ will get his yards.  The match-up with J-No should be epic and fun to watch as both players seem to respect one another.  But my question is this.  How in the fug will the Giants stop our offense?  I think Cam and Co. will put together a game plan that will methodically eat up the clock and keep the ball out of Eli’s hands.  I think we score at least 38 points again.  I think Cam has a rushing TD and 2 passing TDs while Tolbert and CAP each punch one in. This is our damned year.  This team has been tested on numerous occasions and they have a will to win that is amazing to watch.  These Giants fans can keep looking back and pointing out how they have ended undefeated seasons on a few occasions.  Keep on looking back to the past and the present will kick you in the teeth.  Hey Giants fan, since you guys are focusing on wins from years gone by, I also take a little pride in the fact that my Panthers made the Giants’ final game at the Meadowlands memorable with a  41-9 domination.  The Panthers are coming to town.  Don’t you fuggitaboutit.

Love it as usual. But let me tell you something, there ain't a damn thing wrong with a mint cherry red 1986 Pontiac Fiero with a spoiler. 

It was my first car.  Yay yay, I was only able to drive it 500 miles in the 3 years I had it because the exhaust manifold burned through every cable that laid in that rear engine. But I loved it, so back off.

    • Oh I went off and fully entertained my wife last night as my emails go to her phone as well because of my health. So she got the whole conversation as it happened.    Like I went to games in Detroit for the cup finals, I've been to games in Greensboro, Raleigh, and Chicago as well. My mom and her nurse friend double dated one of the players from when the team was in Greensboro. "He's still with the team in some compacity as well." I know people who work for the team at the arena as well. How the hell would I not be considered a fan. Only reason I haven't gone to a game since 2022 is because of my health and money situation. Last game I went to was at United Center in Chicago and me and my wife spent around 1k for glass seats and some food at the arena and we were next to the penalty box. The pictures of the hurricane players I took are lost because my phone crapped out a few weeks later. 
    • The Falcons win was a fantastic way to end the season and I think just about every Panthers fan would agree the team the coaching staff and particularly Bryce Young were impressive. We really needed that. Credit where it's due. At the same time. Now we have to establish it wasn't just a flash in the pan. We had one of those earlier in the season against the Raiders. As a tortured Panthers fan I have to acknowledge that. I know you're joking but in all seriousness I don't think the QB sneak is something for us to be concerned about in general but I would be lying to myself if I did not acknowledge that looking back at one particular game last season where we continually trotted out Eddie Pinero on 4th and short on the opponents side of the field we could use some creativity in those situations and it's also a matter of predictability. As time goes on it's something for Canales to work on and figure out. Especially with our kicker situation as it stands.
    • I appreciate the measured tone, truly. Hopefully we're at a point where we can dive a little deeper into the discussion. The observation about his footwork is fair in theory, but I'd also counter with 6'1" Brock Purdy recently admitting that he can't see his target on 40% of his throws due to the linemen in front of him. He just inked a massive deal, and while a lot of fans are understandably wondering what he's going to do with reduced weapons, "not seeing over the line" just doesn't seem to be that big of a disqualifier with his understanding of timing, leverage, and pre-snap reads (Aaron Rodgers is 6'2"... bet he's dealt with the same). Bryce is likely dealing with similar challenges due to his size, but it clearly doesn't mean it can't be managed at a high level. Also, I'm not convinced that "prototypical footwork" should be the end goal for a QB that isn't built like the prototype. What matters more is timing and rhythm with his receivers... which, as we've both noted, has been evolving as the WR room flips from vet stopgaps to rookies. He will need to improve there. That's not in dispute. What is in dispute is the impact that footwork is having on his ability to process and execute. The earlier suggestion that he's “hopping around” to see the field implies a frantic or panicked visual search, which just isn’t something we’ve seen reflected in either the film or any reliable breakdown. If it were as exaggerated as described, it would’ve become a meme-worthy moment (or at least been on SportsCenter's Not Top 10). Instead, we've seen a QB who, like many young passers, occasionally loses platform stability under pressure. That is something that's common and correctable, and again, not something that shows up with enough frequency to suggest it's an endemic flaw. It’s worth continuing to track, but to argue it's a defining issue requires stronger proof than anecdote. As for the "investments" made in the offense after drafting Bryce, I think that might be stretched a bit. Yes, we've used back-to-back firsts on WRs and signed guards to big contracts. But beyond that? Mingo (2nd) and Diontae (FA) are gone. Zavala (4th) was the worst-rated OL in the league his rookie year Sanders (4th) and Evans (5th) are mid-round TEs. Tremble was given a small contract extension but is said here to be at best a blocking TE2. Jimmy Horn Jr (6th) and Coker (UDFA) are the other WR investments Corbett + BC got one-year deals coming off of injury Cade Mays was tendered, but he was cut to start last season That's not some overwhelming infusion of elite talent. It's better, sure... but acting like it's some embarrassment of riches feels overstated. Expecting instant chemistry and impact from rookies and second-year guys while simultaneously mocking the idea of contending this year also feels a little... off? So far, what I've heard as your criteria boils down to red zone efficiency and intermediate passing to the sidelines? You mentioned moving the ball inside the 20s... I'd recommend 3rd down conversion rate, big-time throws, and turnover-worthy plays. For red zone play specifically, we could look at turnovers inside the 20. Incompletions in the red zone as well as intermediate sideline incompletions could provide an interesting starting point for film study. Hell, any of these would give us a more objective framework to work from if you're open to using them. Do any of them work for you?
