Baas  
Defenderdawg : 7/28/2013 12:18 pm : link
@ebenezersamuel: Baas on his multiple surgeries: "It was a good tuneup." Says it will all benefit his flexibility in long run.
I just hope Baas hasn't rushed back too soon  
Jay on the Island : 7/28/2013 12:22 pm : link
When healthy, which hasn't been often since he signed, he is a solid center. Is he overpaid? Absolutely but he is better than many people give him credit for.

good news on Curry  
djm : 7/28/2013 2:05 pm : link
...i'm all but convinced he will be player if he can stay on the field. He's talented and hungry. Even if he's a dope on the field, talent and effort go a long way. And he's never been one to shy away from the physical aspects of the game.

Vrentas now has an NFL-wide gig with SI. She is rightly writing her tweets to a less-Giants-focused audience.

Most people probably remember Madison from all his years with the Dolphins, and might not recall that he was on the '07 Giants.
Yeah, that's a fair point as she's non-Giant exclusive.

Biggest cheers during one-on-one period is when Nicks makes 40(ish)-yard sideline catch vs. Webster. Thrown by Carr.

this is really the first real burn Nicks has endured

since last season. No surprise he's feeling something right now. Don't go jumping off any bridges just yet. He's probably just tight.

arcarsenal : 7/28/2013 3:24 pm : link
Not even worth the effort.

My guess is that Nicks is probably going to be dealing with some soreness/tightness after not really going full tilt consistently for so long. I doubt this is any sort of big deal. But we'll see.
Sneaks, it's not panic.  
Dave in Hoboken : 7/28/2013 3:25 pm : link
In my case, it's more amazement than anything else.

Upon further review, no wrap on Nicks. Not with the training staff either, so he may still just be easing back into things. #nyg

Tyler Sash got right leg tangled up during final drill. Off to locker room on cart #nyg
Cruz  
djm : 7/28/2013 3:42 pm : link
the football gods bestowed upon us a generous gift when Cruz was signed as a FA back in 2010. What a fucking steal this guy was. And now he's a steal all over again with the contract he signed. Some stars are a bit over hyped with their on the field and off the field persona but not Cruz. So glad he's here for 6 more years. Just a great ambassador and an even better player.
This is why you have like 8 safeties going into camp  
robbieballs2003 : 7/28/2013 3:42 pm : link
They have a way of sorting themselves out.


Hope Sash is alright though.

Just put Nicks in a bubble until September.  
Dave in Hoboken : 7/28/2013 3:54 pm : link
All they need is for him to tear his groin in a pre-season game.
Agreed.  
arcarsenal : 7/28/2013 3:57 pm : link
Getting timing down with Eli and getting reps in general are worthless. I'm sure he doesn't need to get into football shape, either.
I guess Nicks is having issues

I'd rather that

Seems some of you guys....  
rptl530 : 7/28/2013 4:00 pm : link
would like for a guy like Nicks to be hurt so you can bust out your passive aggressive bullshit.

rptl nailed it.  
Dave in Hoboken : 7/28/2013 4:02 pm : link
Hell, lets hope the whole team gets hurt. That would be awesome!

I hope I'm wrong  
RobCarpenter : 7/28/2013 4:03 pm : link
But I think Nicks won't be a Giant after this season.
It doesn't work that way.  
arcarsenal : 7/28/2013 4:03 pm : link
You don't just have a guy do nothing throughout August and expect him to be able to play in games in September. Conditioning and reps are extremely important.

If you really want Nicks to end up on IR, following your plan would be a great way to do it.
Arc is absolutely right  
Jay on the Island : 7/28/2013 4:06 pm : link
Nicks needs practice reps to not only get into a rhythm with Eli but also to get his body into football shape. If he sits out all training camp then goes all out week one then he has a very high chance of pulling or tearing his hamstring, groin etc.
Rob, probably not.  
Dave in Hoboken : 7/28/2013 4:07 pm : link
TC must be thrilled. Wish he could give his unfiltered thoughts on this. Too bad that would never happen today.
I guess we should have rested everybody week 17  
robbieballs2003 : 7/28/2013 4:07 pm : link
In 2007 for fear of injury.
I wasn't suggesting they literally stash him away.

wgenesis123 : 7/28/2013 4:26 pm : link
practices without everyone feeling some kind of aches and pains. Nicks may just be excersising some caution. Not a bad idea I think.

Ryan : 7/28/2013 4:43 pm : link
...a guy easing from multiple leg injuries has some tightness in another area of his lower body early on in camp on a very warm, humid day. Absolutely shocking. This never happens to anyone in a similar situation.

Ryan  
robbieballs2003 : 7/28/2013 5:06 pm : link
I get your sarcasm which is understandable but you kind of negate it by saying it is hot and humid out. Muscle pulls are not common in hot weather. Cramps are. Muscle pulls are more common in cold weather or when the muscles aren't warmed up.
And not only that,  
Dave in Hoboken : 7/28/2013 5:10 pm : link
but it wouldn't have been that hard to believe he did get hurt again, because he has the tendency to get hurt. Plus, multiple beat writers said he had a brace or wrap on his knee and was being seen by the medical staff. It's only day 2 of camp, I'm not going to jinx it anymore.
and the tradition  
Dave in MD : 7/28/2013 5:17 pm : link
of people on BBI freaking out about basically nothing continues.
arc...  
Ryan : 7/28/2013 5:29 pm : link
Aside from the fact that that is patently false (any conditions leading to dehydration increase risk of cramp and strain) the report simply said tightness which could be either.
sorry
