"Get THAT camera outta here!! You wanna tell the entire country what plays we run?"
To me, this sucks...it's an unnecessary distraction. Imagine filmmakers shoving a camera in your face while you were at work....showing everybody what mistakes you made, etc etc.
I hate it....
I hope Coughlin finds some passive aggressive way to completely thwart all of their efforts....
4 have made the playoffs, including 3 of the last 4. The furthest a team has made it in the playoffs are the 2010 Jets who lost in the AFC Championship to the Steelers.
have apparently volunteered, or at least shown interest, but the league is still going to force a team. Maybe all the interested teams have done it before, and the league wants to rotate it, but it's annoying to force a team that's not interested (which is all 3 finalists), when someone else is happy to step up.
Quote:
“There were a lot of discussions with clubs at the March meeting [in Orlando, Fla.],” NFL commissioner Roger Goodell said during the Associated Press Sports Editors meetings in New York on Thursday. “There are several clubs that are interested in doing this. I just don’t have an update on which club, whether it’s going to be a volunteer or if it’s somebody who is going to have to fulfill the obligation. But I’m sure that decision will be made pretty soon.”
I don't get the hate for this. Can anyone point to one team where Hard Knocks was such a huge distraction that it negatively impacted the team?
I agree completely. I actually feel like I know exactly what we'd get from TC (class, grace, professionalism, humility). But wouldn't it be great to see PF and the D? Who doesn't want to see Trel being Trel? And it would be awesome to see Eli working with McAdoo. I will definitely watch this show.
but I don't think Coughlin/Mara are the kind of coach/owner duo who would want this kind of attention. Playing in NY is a distraction in itself, no need to bring cameras around to film an actual TV show. This is an important year for the Franchise with the firing of Gilbride and the new offense being implemented. That's all I want our players to be focused on.
hope the Giants are on it. It would be fun to watch and is not a big deal at all as far as distractions to the teams go. I don't think there is anything that would hurt our season by being on this show.

I had the same thought. I doubt they'd set up shop for an extra week.
But you don't want to see Abby in the latest fall fashion seeing Eli off to camp?
I can't imagine a more boring show. And on top of that, I don't care for showing guys as they get cut. Really lame.
I wouldn't mind seeing Abby in a lot of things, but "fall fashion" isn't among them.
If that was a concern for them, I imagine they wouldn't have included the Giants in the last round of finalists in the first place.

I know this thinking isn't popular but I blame fantasy football.
This is why we get football on Thursdays, corny lead-in music/theatrical performances and such...
