Goodbye Allie!

Who here survived the 1970s? :) Piscarcik to Csonka... oh no!! I was there for that one! OC Gibson got fired the next day. Fly that Banner! Burn those tickets and send the ashes to the front office! Hey guys, before the onslaught of free agency, we had to endure a decade and more of lousy football. At least teams can turn it around in a year; look at the Chiefs!
I remember those days.

And this is arguably worse. Four games, four blowout losses after a late season collapse last year.

It's time for a whole lot of people - execs, coaches, and players - to go.
yep

I hadn't thought of it like that but this team has that kind of stink to it right now. Those years were just awful too. Thanks for reminding me.
Ahhh, the 70's.  
Klaatu : 9/29/2013 5:06 pm : link
Sex was safe, weed was 40 bucks an ounce, and the Giants sucked.
I survived the 70's too...

and I never thought it would actually get that bad ever again. Ray Perkins and George Young changed the whole mentality of the organization. Bill Parcells even started 3-12-1 and was also teetering on being fired, but came back strong. Of course he also had a better roster then too. I just don't see this team as talented enough. Could be another 4-12 type season, I hate to say.
Its been 4 games.  
tator : 9/29/2013 5:06 pm : link
Thats hardly 18 years of lousy football.
As someone born in 65 and growing being a season ticket holder, these 4 games look so familiar.

Perhaps its time for Coughlin to go. But he has earned the right to finish this year and walk away. I dont thing firing him now is the Giants way.

It was 20 bucks an ounce and 60 for a quarter.
I was not around then

And still know that you must be on Heisenberg's blue stuff to say the end of last year and beginning of this is worse. The era the OP is referencing was a black hole in the franchise's history. We won a SB two years ago and were in it until the end last year. A few bad games? That time was over a decade of absolute garbage football. Jesus Christ, what's next on this site? Someone saying Coughlin's worse than R** H******?

Let the young guys play and gain experience. Sometimes a guy steps up and seizes and opportunity and becomes a pleasant surprise. And let's just hope Eli doesn't get killed either. I cringe when I see him getting smacked while releasing the ball.

that was the only way to get through some of those games. Blue Hawaiian or Purple Sens made a game endurable during those years watching them while I was in college.
I lived through it...  
Vinny from Danbury : 9/29/2013 5:15 pm : link
...and in no way do I want to live through it again. Something has to change.

smoking weed and having sex instead of watching these games.
Smoking weed

is the only way i get through these games. Fuck this season.
lived through it  
Bleedin Blue : 9/29/2013 5:22 pm : link
and what makes this worse is the fact we have more weapons than we ever had back then! Back then we knew they sucked because they sucked on paper and on the field! This team is an abomination, what happened to all the promise!
Hahaha well your name is "bake"

of 1966. 1-12-1. I believe we gave up a record amount of points that season.
If this team has to be blown apart and re tooled  
SalTony56 : 9/29/2013 5:36 pm : link
next year maybe a new voice and new direction is needed.
I have always been a Coughlin supporter but as someone said you are what your record says you are.
Reese has to go on notice as well.
Not that anyone on BBI would actually know, but theoretically, how...

You left out (in addition to over-pricing) that it was also when girls were girls -- and easy.
Saw some “Saints Bags” on a few of the Giant fans at Kansas City on TV  
PonderingObserver : 9/29/2013 9:13 pm : link

No doubt there will be more showing up at NYC for the next game.
Found this on another link

I have no problem wearing the paper bag at home games  
TommytheElephant : 9/29/2013 9:28 pm : link
The away game bothers me. I don't know why maybe I'm absent of logic on this one but that's how I feel
The paper bag really annoys me.  
rsjem1979 : 9/29/2013 10:09 pm : link
Oh you're ashamed to be a fan of a team with 2 Super Bowl titles within the last half dozen years? Yeah they absolutely suck so far, but grow up and be a man about it.
I remember the 70s well  
Mike in Philly : 9/29/2013 10:38 pm : link
and this ain't them. Yea, they're stinking up the place right now, but it's dtill only part of one season. They've got years to go to be 70s bad.
I dont care if this team  
djm : 9/30/2013 12:05 am : link
goes 0-16 and gives up 1000 pts. This aint the 70s.
A decade??  
HomerJones45 : 9/30/2013 12:43 am : link
would that it was only a decade. Try 17 years.
