New York Giants Fans from Around the World- A Bye Week Note by The Irish Highball

Ladies and gentleman and I use gentlemen loosely...dirty dogs! It was great to see all the Giants Fans from Texas, New York, and New Jersey at the tailgate prior to the game against the Cowboys.

The mood was set right outside the Cowboys home in Arlington. Giants came... Giants saw...Giants conquered ...AGAIN! Eli is 2-0 in the cowboys new home I refer to as the Tarrant County Colosseum. Eli now owns property in Tarrant County, TX. I wonder if he marked his territory a second time?I think I even met the unofficial Governor of the Meadowlands Parking Lot wearing a Giants sports coat and a Giants tie. Good Luck on Election Day! Some Giants fans even read our blog...thank you for your comments. We love the comments.

I also found out Big Blue DFW has hits from all over the World. The WORRRLD! Are they Giants fans? Are they lost? Or are they reading our blog every week like Peter?

Who knows, but I have to say Cheers... Gezondheid... Proost... to the curious readers from Netherlands. We get weekly hits from the Netherlands! Here are the top countries that have viewed www.BigBlueDFW.com:

United States- 2,890
Netherlands- 218
Russia- 79
Luxembourg- 62
Germany- 61
Canada- 47
Madagascar- 2... "All Hail The New York Giants!"

None from Wales... However, I was sent an email from someone in Wales and they wrote all of my friends the following message from me:

I'm writing this with tears in my eyes,my family and I came down here to Wales.United Kingdom for a short vacation unfortunately we were mugged at the park of the hotel where we stayed,all cash,credit card and cell were stolen off us but luckily for us we still have our passports with us.

We've been to the embassy and the Police here but they're not helping issues at all and our flight leaves in less than hours from now but having problems settling the hotel bills and the hotel manager won't let us leave until we settle the bills,

I'm freaked out at the moment.
-Mac

No, I was never in Wales... I was spammed, infiltrated, the victim of sabotage... However, here are some real life responses to the email that were forwarded to me from my friends, family and fellow Big Blue DFW members:

"I hope you rot in Europe. You should pay me to take you back."

"Is Mac In Wales?"

"Spam?"

"How much do you need? Where do I send the money?"

"Go Big Blue!"

"Bizarre. Didn't sound like Mac but it was just weird enough with the Mac's Irish heritage twist that he MIGHT be over in that general area. It was a stretch but I had to ask."

"Have fun on your trip"

"Just so you know, I would totally send you $5 to assist (but I'd deduct the postage cost first)."

"Take pictures, I love Great Britain this time of year"

"You're Fucked! Love, Dad"

bye week blues

So wtf to do this bye week? I could A. start writing my great American novel. B. Go visit Romo in the hospital and give him the jar I farted in when I was eleven(I had planned on giving it to my brother but forgot). C. Get dressed in GIANTS gear, find the biggest cowboy watching party and walk around all chest out and give all those chumps my patented Asshole smile D. Find myself a hot ass woman wearing cowboys gear, charm the pants off her, and in the morning when she realizes shes wearing GIANTS blue, give her my patented Asshole smile and say,"yea baby you got fucked twice."(I've done this move before but with my beloved SOONERS) E. Tie a faggy sweater around my neck and go frolicking in this beautiful fall weather like a fucking muff. F. Wake up on a Sunday and do my usual shit with one exception; I wont get to see my beloved GIANTS put waste to another QB.. Thats right Hasselbeck.. you got two weeks to enjoy the little things you usually take for granted.. like wiping your own ass.. make sure that you give a shout out to Jesus/budda/yaweh/jah/Ala/Shiva... before you do.. our D is gonna get some payback for all the shit your retard brother talks about BIG BLUE.



Well those are just a couple of things I could do on Sunday.. until next time.. GO GIANTS.. and where the heck did I put that sweater?

Pictures are worth thousand words

Thanks to the D Gmen Sal for the photos!

10 Thing You Don't See At The Game:

10 - Stats like this: Steve Smith is the first Giants player since 1988 to have 100+ yards receiving two regular season games against the Cowboys. (Make it 3 in a row).

9 - A slow motion replay of Rich Seubert pancaking Keith Brooking.

8 - Jerry Jones cheering for the cowboys opening touchdown. (Not seeing that is actually a good thing)

7 - Another slow motion replay of Chris Snee pancake blocking Brady James on the Manningham touchdown.

6 - A Brandon Jacobs replay dragging Keith Brooking for 4 extra yards.

5 - A replay of Miles Austin's alligator arms. (I guess Antrel Rolle has loud feet)

4 - Another stat: 47% of Tom Coughlin's on-field calls are overturned on challenges. (highest percentage in NFL history - minimum 30 challenges)

3 - Game stats. ($1.3 Billion Stadium and I can't find how many yards Eli has)

2 - The Michael Boley/Tony Romo sack replay.

And the number 1 thing you won't see at the game:

1 - Jerry Jones in complete shock watching his team get dismantled on national television.

Putting The Nail in Dallas' Coffin

""The Giants planted a Big Blue tombstone in the center of Jerry Jones' crown jewel of a stadium: R.I.P. 2010 Dallas Cowboys.

First they buried Tony Romo, then they buried the Cowboys.

They soared to the top of the NFC East and established themselves as the best the entire NFC has to offer and take a four-game winning streak into the bye week.

They sent a message to Rex Ryan along the lines of "Move over, big boy, we're still here and we're not surrendering the town to you and your Jets anytime soon."

They ushered in the beginning of the end of the Wade Phillips Era and left Cowboys fans doubting that Romo will ever win a Super Bowl.

They rendered obsolete Jones' grand ambition of hosting the Texas Super Bowl.

Regarding to my long time buddy's earlier post on "Peter's Text and Lesson Learned": my bad on interrupting a business call. However, after hearing these immature dumbass comments on "How bout them Rangers" at a football game in which their team is getting their asses kicked with homo-less QB, I maintain my stand: "BTW, FUCK THE RANGERS"!!!

Giants at Cowboys - Monday - 7:30pm

If you're unable to attend the game - you're still welcome to watch it at Cape Buffalo. Since some of us will be at the game - the crowd might be a little lighter than normal.

For those of you that are able to attend the game - there are some details to pass along if you're interested in joining us for the tailgating festivities:

We will be tailgating in Silver Lot 13. (It's Southeast of the Stadium at the corner of Legends Way and Sanford Street). Since we won't know an exact location yet - we should be on the east side of the lot along the grass parking spots...basically the perimeter of the lot. (I've included a parking map below for illustration).

Since we never know how many people to expect - we've decided to make it easy and do a "BYOB" and a "BYOF"...bring your own beer and bring your own food. Basically - if you want to eat something - bring it. If you want to drink something - bring it. We'll have 2 grills there for anyone that wants to use them and probably a fair amount of cooler space too.

Our plan is to be there around 2:00pm (or as soon as they let us in the gate).

So come out and get an early start with the BigBlueDFW crew. It's pretty much a guaranteed good time!

Giants 28 - Lions 20 - I Think That:

- The crowd at Cape Buffalo was the largest we've had...man that's a lot of fun! (for any of the new comers - welcome to the group. I hope you join us again.)
- Ahmad Bradshaw is the man! Some of the cuts he makes are just sick.
- Calvin Johnson show-boating from the 50 yard line really bothered me...have fun playing for a Detroit that's been rebuilding since 1957).
- This just in: CC Brown still sucks.
- What was the Detroit return man thinking when he tried to field a ball clearly going out of bounds...nice of his teammate to nail him as he was going out of bounds. Thanks for saving us a penalty.
- Goff is quietly becoming a nice inside linebacker...props to that guy again.
- If you're an opposing QB watching film on the Giants D - Are you nervous?
- Looks like Osi isn't just satisfied with a normal sack - another strip sack...nice!
- Shayne Graham did a fine job in his 3 days as a Giant. (4-4 on extra points)
- Hopefully two rushing touchdowns for Jacobs will fire him up for next week (keep your mouth shut and keep running hard!)
- Dick's muzika palka's version of "Happy Birthday" and "God Bless America" was awesome!
- Coming down from a jaeger and birthday cake high is rough.
- Looking forward - Is there such a thing as a trap game against a 1-4 team?

Peter's Text and Lesson Learned

I understand this has nothing to do with this weeks game. However, as I am sitting with my clients early Friday evening, I learned a valuable lesson. Maybe I shouldn't use my iphone calculator to show price. Even though its numbers are perfect for someone of any age to see with ease.

Understand this... I live in Texas and work with many people over the age of 65. They tend to be die hard Texas sport fans and not too happy with profanity of any kind. I am always respectful of those two simple rules. If you want to make a sale... don't have friends like Peter.


As I am showing the clients my iphone calculator, I hear a text alert<"Bing">.


My client says,"Ahh son... something is blocking the number..." Very polite way to tell me because the numbers are still quite clear. I look and see:

Giants vs. Lions - Sunday - 12:00pm

I can't really think of anything to say about Detroit...except there's an new show on tv called Detroit 1-8-7. Every time I see a commercial for that show - I immediately think of a Dr. Dre song called "F*ck Wit Dre Day (And Everybody's Celebratin')." If you're familiar with that song (and you know who you are), there are some lyrics that contain the term "1-8-7" that should make you laugh!

So come out and holla 1-8-7 as we put the smack down on Detroit! If you're lucky - maybe Gangsta Pete will come out again!

Like Jmall said - it's week 6 and a potential trap game. Let's take care of business.

Dont know whats going on...

I'm back just like the GIANTS defense, and we're both kicking ass and taking names... well not me so much but I could snap at any time.. anyways, I do like what I see and hope it continues. As GIANTS fans we know that any time the bottom could fall out at any time... now I can handle the Indy loss, and I could handle the Tenn loss, what I couldn't handle however; is a loss to the Fucking lions..... There's a lot of things that happen during the course of a season, and when that season sucks Ball bag, it doesn't take Sherlock Holmes to figure why... Last year this week our season got Fucked... this week last season was the Saints game, and we all know what happened and that was the end.... ass fucked on national TV. As a superstitious mother fucker, I will be tense till we crush these fucking guys. I felt terrible last year just cause it always seems that my fucking birthday week game is always so important... Or it could be Drew's fault... you know what, it is Drews fault, so if we lose everyone owes Mr. Oswalt a swift kick in the nut sac

Giants 34 - Texans 10. I think that:

This is the Giants defense I was expecting to see this year.
Hakeem Nicks is the #1 receiver on this team...sorry Steve Smith.
The running game would be better if Jacobs ran between the tackles.
Darius Reynaud is a waste.
The 2 picks by Eli were actually his fault this time.
I still can't relax with a 17 point lead in the 3rd quarter.
Mario Williams - for the most part - was a non factor in the game.
The offensive line has looked great the last 2 games. 2 wins - coincidence?
Holding Houston to 24 total rushing yards makes me giddy...big time!
Props need to go out to Jonathan Goff - that's 2 impressive games in a row.
The "victory formation" (per Jmall) at the 2 minute warning is relaxing.
The Giants better not be looking past the Detroit game. Take care of business.

What's worst than an NFL drama queen?

An dumb ass horny drama queen named Favre. I hope some of these stories are true to blow up in his face so may be, just may be, he can be retired involuntarily and tuned off the TV set for good!!! Come to think of it, it is a perfect fit for Favre with the Jets - a bunch of prima donnas...

It's getting worse for Favre

The Brett Favre-Jenn Sterger story isn’t going away. Not only did the NFL admit Friday that it is looking into the matter, but two more women who worked for the Jets have come forward with complaints about the legendary quarterback. And, unfortunately for Favre, the non-mainstream sports website Deadspin is once again breaking the news.

Here’s an excerpt:


The woman (who wishes to remain anonymous for now — we'll call her "Mandy") worked as a massage therapist for the team for a couple years, but she says never had an incident with a player until No. 4 showed up at training camp at Hofstra University, where the Jets still worked out in 2008. "He was on the table next to mine," she tells me. "He was looking at my ass the whole time while I worked on another player. He was ... ogling me."

The woman who was massaging Brett that day (massage therapist No. 2, or "Lindsay") exchanged numbers with him. (Mandy claims it's common for players to take the numbers of team-contracted massage therapists should they need additional rubdowns off campus. Yeah, I know. Please don't.)

Lindsay received a text message from Favre, according to Mandy. Lindsay assumed it was for a massage but quickly realized Brett was asking for more. He invited both Lindsay and Mandy back to his hotel room. Mandy claims that the texts became increasingly inappropriate ("just nasty stuff"), but she adds that Brett did apologize when he found out she was married.

This apology over text, however, wasn't enough for Mandy's husband. We'll call him "John".

"I called him on his phone and told him I wanted an apology. He acted all arrogant. He refused to apologize," John tells me in a phone conversation.

Mandy and John say they approached attorneys about the situation but were told that because Mandy was a private contractor, there were no grounds for a harassment case. They didn't pursue anything.

Giants at Texans - Sunday at 12:00pm

If you're going to the game in Houston - that's awesome! But if you're stuck in town wishing you had bought tickets like the rest of us - come out to the Cape Buffalo and hope our defense shows up again. Remember - misery loves company!

Besides...isn't this really what we're missing:

Potential Help For A Battered Offensive Line

In an effort to enhance the running game, the New York Giants have reached out to a pair of brothers hoping to bolster the blocking along the offensive line. Bobby "Nightclub" and Mike "Boom Boom" McNamara were called up by the New York Giants brass for tryouts. Both have been focused more on tequila and the Mexican soccer league as of late, but both have stated "they're ready to play."

Many of you may recall the McNamara brothers attempting to start their own New Jersey Beer League soccer team back in 2003 when NY Giants football had taken a turn for the worse. Anunzio Coccavelli had this to say: "These boys may look ready for a siesta but they're ready to play. As you can see, the real key is how they hide their arms. It throws off the defensive line and they don't ever see it coming. The New York Giants run game will soon be back on top."


With all the injuries along the offensive line, we might not have to wait long to see these New Jersey bandidos. I, for one, am ready. Put 'em in coach!

Line Maneuvers

Since our OL are shuffling in and out according to this article http://www.giants.com/news/headlines/story.asp?story_id=44424, we need (big) Mac and (big) Drew to put on their pads to play OL this Sunday. Who knows they could play better...
Let Richard start lining up as DL...

MISSING

Respect? Don't need it!

So how are G-Men viewed by ESPN after beating the craps out of the Bears:
Bears #11 at 3-1
Cowshit #14 1-2 (Trent "Dildo" Dilfer picked this team as coming out ahead last weekend in the NFC east even though they didn't play. Another A-hole Jerry Jones' jerk-off!!)
G-Men #20 2-2

No respect. That's alright, we don't need none. We'll throw all of them under our bus when they try to hop on our jock (thanks Jmall) later!!!

Go Big Blue.

Time to chill

What an outstanding performance by the defense on Sunday night.... This is why its great to be a giants fan; when we kick ass we literally kick ass.. Fuck all the model boning, soup slinging, dog killing A-holes in the division... give me three guys named Osi, Tuck, and who is this Phillips and meet at the playground for some four on four action... just make sure you're H.M.O. covers the removal of instep from anus( not sure if this is the term they use) So all you other slags out there believe this... Giants are gonna be alright this season... thats my word, you can't show that kinda of D and not back it up... So LET'S GO GIANTS, fuck the texans, fuck the cowboys, and I'm out.

Repeat: Giants 17 - Bears' 3rd-string QB "Mommy!!". I think that...

Per popular request of repeat... after all we DID repeat many times on Bears QB!!!

That game was fun to watch. - Not for Bears' QB.
Chicago QB (enter name here) looked like a human pinata. - And human grass stains.
Pregame speeches by Strahan and Armstead always pay dividends. - Can they do it again before the cowshit game. We need Homo to be another human pinata.
Our punter needs to get his shit straight...quick. - Can Feagles kick again?
Tiki Barbers still sucks... dicks!!! - My brother reminded me that every time Tiki opens his fucking big mouth, we win. I guess it is a guesture to Tiki: FUCK YOU DOUCHE BAG and (most of) us don't give a rat ass of what your statistics was. I heard the whole stadium booed him at haft time during Ring Of Honor ceremony. Per Mara: "we got 29 cheers today"...
NBC's announcers can suck it. - The only way to shut Cockworth up is to duck tape a dildo in his mouth for the remaining of the season!
This victory will mean nothing if we don't back it up in Houston. - Amen.
Out.

Big Blue!!!

Giants 17 - Bears 3: I Think That...

That game was fun to watch.
Chicago QB (enter name here) looked like a human pinata.
Pregame speeches by Strahan and Armstead always pay dividends.
Our punter needs to get his shit straight...quick.
The kickoff coverage tackle by Wilkinson was AWESOME!
Tiki Barbers still sucks.
NBC's announcers can suck it.
Perry Fewell is back in my good graces...for now.
Victor Cruz might be a good option for punt and kick off returns.
Lately - Frank Gifford is looking better than Kathy Lee.
Our Wide Receivers still need to catch the damn ball.
This victory will mean nothing if we don't back it up in Houston.

Open Letter To Tiki Barber

Dear Tiki,

The only thing coming out of your mouth should be an explanation to your kids about how you fucked over your family for an intern.

Leave the Giants out of it.

Have fun covering the world's largest ball of twine in Cawker City, Kansas.

Sincerely,

Angry Irish Bastard
