Draft Day Is Here!!!!!!!!!!!!

I feel like draft day is the first day of the new season. Obviously there is a lull from April to August (when pre-season starts), but the buzz has begun!!!!!!

I am so ready to see what the Giants do today.

The Season that Passed Me By....

I started last season with high hopes. I would watch my beloved Giants, and I would blog like mad!

One out of two ain't bad. I watched EVERY Giant's game. I LOVE the NFL Sunday Ticket!!

However I didn't blog at all, which sucks, because last season there was much to blog about. Plaxico anyone? Tom Brady who? The Brett Farve situation. The hope (and I know I wasn't the only one) of a SUPER MANNING BOWL!!!

However I didn't blog and much of that stuff is in the past, so I shall soldier on.

The draft is coming.................I can't WAIT.

Love,
J

Getting my pre-preseason fix

I have managed to amaze two different people today. Both have been completely baffled by the fact that I can not wait for the draft this Saturday. I was asked how I could even be looking forward to something so boring when I won't watch baseball on tv for just that reason.

Here is my answer:

I love football. I can't wait for the season to start. The draft is the very first ripple in ocean of awesomeness that is the NFL season. According to giants.com there are 134 days until kickoff on Sept 4th (what an awesome birthday present for me!). Although August beings sweltering weather and PRESEASON I don't even have to wait that long!

Slacker Blogger......

I think I have earned a new nickname. Yep that is me, slacker blogger.
I had this beautiful blog about the Giants victory over the Packers. Where is this amazing blog you may ask.........well I deleted it. Why you may ask...........because the victory is moot, a greater more important victory has occurred that has eclipsed that win.

Yes I am talking about the SUPER BOWL. A fabulous hard fought back and forth game that caused me and a number of other Giants fans racing pulses and clenched fists/jaws/stomachs.

Eli Manning was fantastic. The D line worked harder than ever, and Shockey was in the stands. Which was the only sore point for me ( and Shockey I am pretty sure).

Great Job New York Giants.

When I finally realized that I enjoyed watching football, and I picked the Giants as my team, I made an excellent choice.

Love,
