Home sweet home.

Just pointing out the fact that the lowly, worthless, Skins put two full blown butt kickings on the SB champs. Has that ever happened before? The SB champs signficantly beaten twice in the regular season leading to a SB victory by a team the supposed experts on this site proclaim day after day is worthless and poorly managed?

I have friends that are Giants fans try and explain those 2 butt kickings away, and my reply is always “But if the Skins and Giants met in the SB the Skins would of won, big”. Its a fact.

Maybe we can own you again this year, because I really enjoyed watching the Giant fans use their typical excuses as to why the lost those games.

—

The Skins beat the Giants for the first time since 2007, and now they “own” them?

Holy crap…

And I will indeed come up with something new, just as soon as Skins fans stop proclaiming their greatness whenever Danny Boy pisses away more draft picks and a ton of money on garbage players in FA.

Deal?

His injuries kept him off the field.

I’m a bit surprised about this move from the Giants. They seem to think they can revive ex skins careers. Lavar Arrington didn’t work out, Brian Mitchell did ok, Antonio Pierce was a beast, Devin Thomas is a joke of a receiver but made some nice special team plays, and now Horton. I’m sure he will a nice special teams addition. Hey I heard that Albert Haynesworth is looking a team. Maybe you should give Clinton Portis a shot, or how about Malcolm Kelly.

Oh, by the way, we know you have won a couple of super bowls, so that comeback is getting old. Come up with something new. Maybe we can own you again this year, because I really enjoyed watching the Giant fans use their typical excuses as to why the lost those games.

Oh, wait a minute, that’s right you won the super bowl last. Great come back.

But that’s it. He holds no key for the Giants to help ensure they don’t get their butts stomped by the Skins like what happened twice last year.

Oh by the way, when is the NFL going to announce the Giants latest SB win has an * next to it? One that denotes the Skins get partial credit for that SB win? Only seems right considering the Skins second butt whooping of the Giants last year set the Giants on their winning ways. Sure would take a little sting of the cap penalty recently imposed.

Consider it? Please?

Eli
Ahmad
Brandon
Ballard
Cruz
Nicks
Mario
Osi
Tuck
jPP
Webster
Ross
Phillips
Rolle
Boley

Yes, we really cheated by bringing in division rivals to win, look how many of our core guys are from within our Division!

Do you watch football?!

Congrats bro!”

He was awesome his rookie year, what happened?

“Ran into Horton when I was in Virginia Beach on vacation with my family and he refused to give my 9 year old son an autograph.

—

He doesn’t owe you anything”

No he doesn’t “owe” anyone anything but, it wouldn’t have hurt this dude to take twenty seconds of his time to sign something for a NINE year old. Not like the man’s Aaron Rodgers, doubt he had people rolling up on him every second but, whatever.

Yea, but once the post season starts, those play books are useless, since those teams aren’t going anywhere anyway.

That said, if the Giants are using the play books of those teams to win any games, they are making better use of them then those teams were, lol.

Man, that’s all the Giants do is sign ex-Cowboys, ex-Redskins, and ex-Eagles

—

….and win 2 Super Bowls in 4 years. Not surprisingly, you left that part out. The Giants give those players a chance to win instead of just cashing in and suffering on loser teams.
