Had NFL network on in the background while going through receipts. I hear what sounds like a game and mentioning the Giants. Oh good, Id love to watch a classic Giants win. Then I look and its against the 49ers. Gee, its 49ers dynasty week, why would they be showing a Giants-49ers game. Then it dawns on me ... its the 49ers-Giants can't snap for a field goal try choke game :-( I just can't watch it or even have it on in the backgroun. I flipped it onto ESPN instead.
Am I the only one?
Without that game, team doesn't completely collapse the following year and Giants don't get Eli/Coughlin, so there was a positive that came out of it.
To this day, I really don't like Sehorn because he was so bad in that game, even though he had previously been one of my favorites.
Shockey not scoring the TD. The botched snaps. The missed call on defensive holding against Seubert. So many things that did not have to happen.
Giants robbed them of their place in football history. Next step is to surpass them. I really believe Eli has two more championships left in him.
It's a 4 part movie. We beat them in the 2011 regular season in Foxboro (where they were assumed to be invincible) on a last-second game winning drive and Brady said "Thank God we'll never have to play them again". And we know how that season ended, LOL
I few years ago the NFL Network was showing the Giants-Dallas 1993 season finale over and over and over relentlessly. One night, just out of curiosity I watched the first five minutes. The Giants went three-and-out and I shut it off. It was making me nauseous (I was at that game, one of my worst drives home ever.)
Did the Giants' fans get that memo too, or was this another "lost ring"?
I watched the "A Football life" on Joe Montana, and I can watch the Jim Burt and Leonard Marshall Hits over and over and over and over again....:)
You shouldn't either!

I truly believe our offense was the only one who could put up points on the 02 bucs that year. We had the perfect recipe for beating that cover 2 with Shockey, that is if he wasn't dropping a pass or being a shithead. We were also red hot on a 4 game winning Then again our defense was decimated. I don't think we lose 31-6 or whatever happened to SF in that game.
The 06 loss to the titans was personally worse for me.
Horrible loss, Probably the worse i remember..
If i were betting objectively, the bucs win that game 7/10 times. I just can't help but think we had one of the few pieces to counter what made them so good. we'll never know.
As far as XXXV, Fassell implemented the game plan too early, and the team was just unprepared. That ravens D was better than the 02 bucs. Even if the Armstead pick 6 doesn't get called back, we probably still lose.

Larry, that was my first game EVER attending. I was 8. Talk about scarring!
But fuck that 49er game and like others said if they had won a Super Bowl in 00-03 then we would've stuck with Jim Fassel and Kerry Collins. It's weird to know that after 2003 Collins played another 5-6 years in the league. So it was highly likely that the Giants would've hung onto these guys if they won a Super Bowl. With Coughlin and Eli, we got two!
but I just had to bring up Super Bowl 42 because when I went to the Stadium celebration in February 2008 me and this guy were talking about the 49er game and how terrible it was. When we were chanting one more year, me and this one guy were chanting "two!" "two!"
Conservative Fosshole lost us that game
