i think all he was trying to say is that each team has a few sparkplug type players and it seems as if the giants are losing those type players, whether it be to retirement, trade or injury. thats 3 players that first come to mind when one thinks of the giants, plaxico and eli would be two more who come to mind.

taylor will miss 10-14 days with a sprained knee.

I am sorry that Osi's season is done, but it will be nice not to have to face him this year.

I agree with you, I honestly think the Patriots have made a deal with the devil....or they are just the luckiest people in the world. I'm surprised none of their starters got injured during meaningless plays (i.e. after they blew up the Redskins, or when they played their last meaningless games in the seson when they were seeking the undefeated season). Plus, I thinkt he Giants got a bit of luck last year, when they got hot at the right time.

Tough deal for Osi, big blow for the G-Men's D. I must say that given how our o-line played yesterday, I was dreading us playing against the G-Men's d-line. I'm sure they will still harrass our o-line, but with Osi out it just won't be the same. I'll be curious to know what NY is going to to do.

I meant Kawika Mitchell, not Kiwanuka. typo.

There is a rumor here in SD that Merrimen wants a new contract this year. No new contract, He will get the surgery and miss the whole year.

And yes, I think he is juiced.

Remember, the guy always tries to stay away from training camp. He could get in shape quick, has done it before + he's not that bad out of shape.

You guys are talking about Kawika Mitchell. He's a linebacker.

Mathias Kiwanuka is actually a LB now too. He's been playing OLB for a couple of reasons- they were deep at DE (not anymore), and he was a little on the small side. Unless Strahan comes back in midseason form asap, I think it's a forgone conclusion Kiwanuka moves back to DE. Which leaves holes a LB. They should never had let Kawika Mitchell get away.

I wonder why no one even jokingly accuses the patriots' defense from juicing. i mean we have guys who can't fart without getting hurt (cough*jensen*cough!), meanwhile their LBs are like 150 years old combined, and they never get hurt.

I love football, but hate the injuries. Even when they happen to someone from another team. Now Renaldo Wynn will get his chance to prove the Redskins wrong for cutting him.

will G-men will ask strahan to come out of retirement?

I bet this is going to become a Favre-like story....on a much much smaller scale though.

Time to go find a bridge from which to jump. This eats $h!t. I remember one year, I think 1999, Sehorn got hurt in the pre-season game against the Jets and was out for the year and was never the same after that. Blew out his knee on the opening kick-off when Fassell thought it would be a good idea for him to return kicks.

[FRPLG]

Never "happy" to see a division rival's player get hurt but I won't miss him this year for sure. The karma connection between Taylor being fine and Osi being caput is interesting.
