By Charles Costello on Sep 04, 2010, 1:17 pm

During Thursday night’s telecast on WNBC/Ch. 4, Bob Papa and Carl Banks found it a bit odd that on his first two touches of the game, Brandon Jacobs did not run the football. They weren’t the only ones who were caught off guard. It seems Jacobs had a similar reaction. Jacobs did not have a carry Thursday night [...]

Shawn Andrews Continues His Comeback

By Charles Costello on Sep 02, 2010, 2:57 pm

USA TODAY has a very interesting story on Giants’ offensive lineman Shawn Andrews, who is attempting a comeback after being diagnosed with clinical depression.

Sinorice Moss Suffers Setback

By Rich Resch on Aug 26, 2010, 3:42 pm

Moss’ setback is just one in a long, long list.  One would have to think that the emergence of Victor Cruz, coupled with this injury, will spell the end for Sinorice in Blue and Red.  Don’t worry though, he shouldn’t have a hard time finding a new team willing to roll the dice.
