Zod's Giants Stadium Ramblings...

Just thought I would share a few ramblings from my Giants Stadium experience.

1. NY Fans are actually a lot like Carolina fans. Most were polite with only light hearted smack.

2. The teams get introduced out of the same gate, their locker rooms are adjacent to eachother. I found this odd.

3. The turf is god awful. It resembles the stuff your grandma has on her back porch, only not as new. Much of it was wet, and essentially, an ice rink.

4. NY Fans scream a lot of profane junk to the players, much more so than Carolina fans. One thing I found very funny though, is that the only player no one was screaming at was Smitty. He stood there at the corner of the endzone during the game just staring the crowd down. Not a word from them.

5. Many snowballs were thrown from the stands onto the field, and many fans were kicked out because of it. At one point I caught a snowball, and wished I had a way to bring it home. I pointed the guy out to security who kept making an ass of himself. The security guy called it in and said "watch this". He smiled and waived as he was escorted out.

6. Saw Keyshawn in the tunnel near the locker rooms and chatted with him a bit. Even in person without the pads on, he is a big dude.

I may think of more, will add later.

They probably remembered the Lucas incident

I would have liked to have seen a photo of how Zod and jbro was dressed - just to see if you both dressed properly for the weather. I'm betting not.

I was wondering if anyone was getting in trouble for all the snowballs. They were pretty plain to see on TV.

Did you notice that one guy in the black Smith jersey in the endzone - I think it was above the tunnel. He was next to a guy in a white #90 NY jersey. He got a lot of face time.

      This.  He knows where the seam is about to open, cuts, and accelerates hard. He’s slippery and tacklers always seem to be taking awkward angles to get to him. No dancing. Runs low and powerful. Almost never goes backwards for a loss. We’ve rarely had the guy who bounces off of tacklers. It’s nice seeing another one.

      I can't speak for others but yes I read it. The conclusions are based heavily around the use of the statistical metric DYAR created by football outsiders and used by ESPN for this article. It only includes players whose production began in 2000. But excluding HOF running backs who produced BIG in an iteration of the NFL that was not yet catered to making things much easier for offenses in order for them to prop up more recent candidates is rather absurd and seems like just playing favorites regardless of where one might fall on their opinion of the use of the metric in question.

      Same thing I first thought but then I saw it was against Jacksonville and took about half a second of playing to know. I was at that game.  I can't tell you my level of excitement when I saw it was Delhomme instead of Peete who came out for the 2nd half. Delhomme has and will probably always be my favorite Panther.
