Giants beat Eagles in overtime thriller
First, let me just say that the Eagles are scum:
But their fans get what they deserve, a need for Pepto Bismol. The Eagles also have some potentailly very bad news on the injury front, but I feel sorry for the guys who got hurt. I feel even worse that it wasn’t Cheap Shot Dawkins who got hurt.
And (speaking of getting hurt) we Giants fans have a thing or two to be proud of. These Giants are fighters, not quitters:
In the end, Tiki Barber had to have X-rays taken of his battered left arm. Amani Toomer’s body was so spent he needed two helpers to simply remove his uniform. Jeremy Shockey could hardly walk as he limped in for a shower.
We Giants kept fighting even though we didn’t expect to win. We played until we couldn’t play anymore, like Amani Toomer who collapsed on the final play of the game and didn’t even see Plax’s TD. He needed 4 bags of IV solution after the game.
We didn’t give up and we won. Hearts of champions. Sure there was plenty of reason for misery during much of the game and maybe I’ll talk about the offensive line and Arrington in coverage and a few other things later in the week. But this is one we can enjoy.
