I will say this. This was not the most memorable game but I have a hard time remembering a more satisfying victory. Even now I'm in some sort of this weird combination of emotions that I can only describe as pissed off happy. Every time I think about the Giants ownership my blood boils.
I have great respect for their players and their front office people but the stunt John Mara pulled this past offseason was enough for me to consider the Giants a bigger rival then the Cowboys. I mean it' one thing to get into a rivalry based on tradition but it's another thing where an opposing owner of a division rival is deliberately trying to sabotage your team. And it's not like we don't know from his statements at the owners meeting that his real goal was to stop the Redskins from acquiring RG3, but instead he settled for the cap penalties.
Still on an emotional high, from the win, and three straight over NFC east foes, amazing. But anyhow agree with all of these points, and just really despise the Giants organization. As amazing as this from 3-6 to 6-6 run has been, how much better would this team have been without taking the huge $36M cap hit, spread over two years. Further how is it not a conflict of interest for an owner of rival in the same division to have say on levying a huge penalty against 2 of the 3 teams in the division?
Also, getting huge kick out of Dan Snyder, being quoted as saying, "I hate those motherf***ers". Have to admit in full agreement with Snyder on that one.
