The Flee to Tyree

JoeMP2003 : 2/6/2008 12:46 pm

just heard this suggested on WFAN as the name for this great play

I like it

What you think

That's just awful

Big Blue '56 : 2/6/2008 12:47 pm : link

A "Put the finger down one's throat" awful...

I'm still going with

3rd and holyfuckingshit.

I still like

"The Hand of Mara"

I prefer...

Chris in Philly : 2/6/2008 12:48 pm : link

something short, sweet, and iconic, like "The Catch" or "The Drive." "The Play" is really all you need. Every one of us will know what it is and most sports fans will too...

"The Hand of Mara"

BigGMenBlue24 : 2/6/2008 12:49 pm : link

Doesn't sound like a play. It sounds more like a hand.

The Hail Manning

JonC : 2/6/2008 12:50 pm : link

is catchy.

jlukes said something like Histyree ... complete the phrase.

How about

mrvax : 2/6/2008 12:50 pm : link

"The Blemish"!

someone on WFAN

TrueBlue56 : 2/6/2008 12:50 pm : link

suggested "The Glendale Grab" and although that doesn't explain eli's miraculous escape, it does sound pretty good.

NY Giants Make Histryee

"Hail Manning, Full of Grace, the Lord is with Tyree"

I like the hail Manning

JoeMP2003 : 2/6/2008 12:52 pm : link

but tyree needs to be incorporated somehow. Thats the tough thing. There were 2 great efforts on that play that both have to be recognized

Thats why i like the FAN suggestion. The Flee (Manning) to Tyree

Manning Makes Histyree

jlukes : 2/6/2008 12:52 pm : link

THE Play....

Cam in MO : 2/6/2008 12:52 pm : link

I like that the best.

Well, and Shep's 3rd and holyfuckingshit!

Histyree of the Wold (champions)

"The Catch" "The Drive" and "The Play" are

GiantsLaw : 2/6/2008 12:53 pm : link

all taken already

I know the catch and the drive,

Cam in MO : 2/6/2008 12:54 pm : link

but what's supposed to be the play?

when people say "Tyree"

GiantsLaw : 2/6/2008 12:55 pm : link

We just nod together in disbelief. Not much more needs to be said. Call the play "Tyree"

"The Play" was the cal/stanford band play

GiantsLaw : 2/6/2008 12:56 pm : link

if I'm not mistaken

I'm still sticking

chris r : 2/6/2008 12:56 pm : link

with The Clutch.

Flee has too much negative to it

NitroOctaneButane : 2/6/2008 12:56 pm : link

I don't like it.

Fred in Atlanta : 2/6/2008 12:57 pm : link

Tyree.

nah

Gene Too : 2/6/2008 12:57 pm : link

I prefer...Go fuck yourselves, Boston?

I thought the cal/stanford band play was

Cam in MO : 2/6/2008 12:57 pm : link

the cal/stanford band play?

I dont think I've ever heard it called the play...

i like mine

Steelreserve42 : 2/6/2008 12:58 pm : link

"Slippery E to David Tyree"

Those 2 are linked in a freaky way

JoeMP2003 : 2/6/2008 12:59 pm : link

Same exact birthday (Jan 3rd)

And if you also remember, in Eli's first win in the NFL, David Tyree was his go to guy, 7 catches, including a TD, he was great that day vs Dallas in week 17 2004

Then this

How about....

Ryan : 2/6/2008 12:59 pm : link

"The OMGOMGOMG!!!!!11!1!1!"

lolz?

Fred I agree

Danny Kanell : 2/6/2008 12:59 pm : link

I think this will end up being called Manning to Tyree...simple and says it all...like Montana to Taylor

slip and grip

bubba0825 : 2/6/2008 1:01 pm : link

Sorry, it is called

Stan from LA : 2/6/2008 1:02 pm : link

THE PLAY.

I dont think there will ever be a point

JoeMP2003 : 2/6/2008 1:02 pm : link

Where anyone is at true consensus at what the play will be called. There will be a lot of nicknames for it, and i think it will probably always be that way. I doubt one ever emerges to be the "official" name nationally

"That crazy ass play with Eli and Tyree"

Osi Osi Osi OyOyOy : 2/6/2008 1:03 pm : link

That's what I'm gonna call it.

I thought "The UNCATCHEBLES"

gel : 2/6/2008 1:46 pm : link

worked great on two levels: Manning was uncatcheble and that catch was uncatcheble.

10-85

Sean in PA : 2/6/2008 1:50 pm : link

should be

AFNavy : 2/6/2008 1:51 pm : link

called the "TYREELI"

Why not just call it what it is

montanagiant : 2/6/2008 2:59 pm : link

They have "The Drive", "The Play", "The catch" But this one surpassed those so i give you:

"The Great Play" or "The Greatest Play"

another one
