Old Giant Country
 
I am to young to have been around but my grandfather Papa Joe always told me people around here were giants fans before the Patriots came to town.

I think with a win in this Super Bowl all those people that still are should either convert or move to NJ.

Read "Grandpa" Shaughnessy's column in the Glob (not a typo) today to see how much better it was when NE was Giant country (and I'm not talking about Dennis Drinkwater's company).

My grandfather was a big Giants fan too. Unless they're playing the Patriots, I always pull for the Giants.

My Grandfather was a Giants fan and I stress the was because he left them in the dust when the Pats came to town. He was one of the few who were on the bandwagon from day one. He had season tix for them several of the homeless years and he bought them for good the first year in Foxboro. They have been in our name ever since.

Thanks Papa Joe because I would not be going to my 4th Super Bowl and 15th game this year if you didn't have the foresight you did.

The Giants were rammed down our throats in the 60's back when the AFL games were not on TV and we were forced to watch the Giants instead. It's not like there was this love affair with the Giants and we had any say in the matter, they were forced upon us by arrogant New Yorkers.

Giants fans crack me up; a month ago, they wanted to ride Eli and their coach out of town on a rail. They march through the JV conference and on to the Super Bowl and they love both of them now.

Effin frauds; they're Yankee fans, I'd expect nothing less from the losers...................

That JV conference split the season series with the AFC. Was the AFC the JV conference when they won 13 Super Bowls in a row?

im gonna say this for the 1000th time, to the 1000th dumbazz, the tuck rule is a RULE, it wasnt made up on the spot, its in the books. Ok? get it,

The giants only won sunday because of the "interception rule" its clear that you were not allowed to catch another teams pass, and that part of the game was made up on the spot. see how stupid that sounds, yea, the tuck rule argument sounds just as stupid.

I love clowns like you that spout the same old tired crap over and over and over; "tuck rule", "where have we been before 2001", blah, blah, blah.

Every week, some troll like you comes here with the same old tired rant, pathetic to be honest. Why don't you jumpstart your flea sized brain and read the thread about long time Patriot fans and see how many of us have been fans WAY before 2001 instead of talking out of your poopchute.

Between the Red Sox, Patriots and Celtics, New York can't hold a candle to Boston in the sports department.

The worm has turned, so deal with it.
