Pet Giant Peeves

Hondo : 7/26/2014 3:41 pm
What century will the world stop referring to our team as THE NEW YORK FOOTBALL GIANTS?

The baseball Giants left in the 50's.

E.G., The Green Bay Football Packers.

sorry, I have to vent every 10 years.
I never want it to go away

it is part of our history and it sounds bad ass.
Seriously? A peeve?

Their corporate name as distinguished from their baseball namesakes is the NYFG. That's been in effect since 1925...The media uses just the NYG save for Cosell and Berman who likes to parody Cosell
Isn't the corporate name of the Mets  
Big Blue '56 : 7/26/2014 3:46 pm : link
the NY Metropolitans or have they changed that?
I actually prefer their proper team name to be used.

It shows respect. The truncated NYG is more a pet peeve, IMO.
If stuff like that bothers you

The New York Football Giants as well. It's their actual name, and I like the way it sounds better compared to the New York Giants. It's also different than other team names in that regard.
It was a great name in 1925

it is a great name in 2014. The New York Football Giants. It will be a great name in 2114

I can't move my anger to name "Jints"

That's what's on my license plate.

Quick tidbit: Was driving on the thru way, pulled into service stop, a priest came up to me, noticing my plate,
and said that he noticed it, and told me that he had married Phil Simms and he wife.

thanks.
Since their legal name is New York Football Giants
