When I looked at my calendar, it was 9/10...
Tom Coughlin needs to lose the FDNY cap. It's the "Manning Bowl", not 9/11 rehash. While I appreciate the sentiment, I HATE every time they pan the camera to him and he's talking behind his laminated sheet of plays into his field mic and the only thing visible is his FDNY hat. I love New York's bravest (soooooo hot!), but when Al Michaels says, "He's wearing the FDNY cap in honor of tomorrow being 9/11...and Dominic Rhodes goes nowhere on 2nd down and 9," I'm NOT THINKING ABOUT 9/11 BEING TOMORROW, DUDE! If I wanted to get all ready for 9/11, I'd watch that shitty ABC movie that is two hours of, as my mom put it, "watching Madeline Albright slam down the phone repeatedly." I don't want to hear about 9/11. I want to hear John Madden analyze the intricacies of Peyton Manning tapping Jeff Saturday's hip. I want to hear Madden say things like, "I've been hearing people say Peyton Manning can't run, well that's darn near a Peyton Manning sprint out there...that's a big play." I want to watch the Colts destroy the Giants, preferably without letting the Giants score much so as to maximize my Fantasy score. So lose the FDNY hat, Coughlin!
