In coming!

It's the most annoying part about BBI  
BigBlueDownTheShore : 8/17/2014 6:04 pm : link
The constant whining. I know for sure it's driven people away from here as a good friend of mine doesn't post allot anymore because of it.
If people complaining about...  
Chris in Philly : 8/17/2014 6:06 pm : link
an awful offense that they have been excited about, then maybe they're being a little too sensitive?
Haha  
BigBlueDownTheShore : 8/17/2014 6:09 pm : link
There is always something being complained about on here at all times. Doesn't matter what time of the season it is or what the topic is.

during the early '60s. Good ol' duck and cover. Those were the days.
Heck there was even complaining/whining or the like

Undefeated Giant teams in the preseason  
Defenderdawg : 8/17/2014 6:15 pm : link
New York Giants 1973 6-0 2-11-1
New York Giants 1985 5-0 10-6 Lost in the Divisional Round
New York Giants 1990 4-0 13-3 NFL Champion / Won the Super Bowl
New York Giants 2006 4-0 8-8 Lost in the Wild Card Round

Just hoping it's not 1973 all over again, the Giants were 8-6 in 1972
The whining and the complaining  
pjcas18 : 8/17/2014 6:20 pm : link
about the whining are both equal parts annoying, but it's what makes BBI survive.

I liken BBI to Monty Burns.

The Mayo Clinic diagnosed Monty with Three stooges syndrome:

Quote:
"Three Stooges Syndrome"
When a person has so many illnesses and diseases trying to kill them, that they cancel each other out - much like when all three of the Three Stooges are attempting to get through a doorway at the same time and get stuck as a result. Coined on 'The Simpsons' in reference to Mr Burns' health. Mr. Burns interpreted this condition as indestructibility.


"The only reason that guy can possibly still be alive is if he has Three Stooges Syndrome."
I don't mind whining about football

as long as its part of relevant discussion. What disturbs me is the frequent attacks and name calling from one to another. It is so rampant here that it turns me off from contributing. I wish all posters would think first about what they write, and use this rule; if I wouldn't say it to another in person, I won't post it here.

Yup. Our grammar school was destroyed by an A-Bomb, but because we knew the duck and cover technique, we all survived and went on to become good upstanding citizens who understand that this procedure was in our best interests.

DD; I remember that Parcells was particularly adamant in the belief that wins were wins and that winning in the preseason created a positive vibe.
The preseason record really means nothing

I don't see much point in getting overly enthused with a good one or overly upset with a bad one.

Glover : 8/17/2014 8:53 pm : link
that winning, even in preseason can be positively infectious, but the last game could only make the first team scratch their own heads. Shut out over 3 quarters and Eli 1-7 for 6 yards, can't make the guys who will actually play come September feel too confident.
Where have you been?  
GFL in WV : 8/17/2014 9:02 pm : link
This is NOTHING compared to the game threads of years gone by.
The whining is great

It keeps the BBI juice flowing. It would be boring without it.
It isn t  
JoefromPa : 8/18/2014 6:55 am : link
The whining that has made BBI less than what it used to be; it s the number of posters whose main objective seems to be to attack other posters rather than contribute something worthwhile to a point being discussed about our team. A lot of immaturity that was absence in the formative years of BBI.
You think this is bad, were almost in "rate my ff team thread" season

Where the bitching and moaning about those threads reaches incredible levels.

If you don't like something you are a whiner.
If you don't like a player then you're a hater.
If you say anything bad about the team then you're a troll.

Geez.
whining about whining  
chris r : 8/18/2014 12:12 pm : link
is not better than whining about troubling signs from a team that was horrible last year.
Bbi isn't even happy

A fine whine. Big, bold, with just a hint of incompetence.

Fans whining about thier team I can understand

I'm not panicky...yeah, I'm a bit whiny but it's not all about the Giants. I'm a lil worried 'bout this team, specifically the offense....more specifically Eli...but it's pretty much the nature of every Giants fan I've ever known to be doom and gloom. My role model growing up was my dad and he's the worse....even during the '07 run and again 4 years later he was "they suck...eli's terrible....coughlin's a douche....wahhhh....wahhhhh" right up 'till Tom Brady's pass fell harmlessly to the ground. Then he was giddy like a freakin' kid-in-a-candy-store. Or an adult in the "Candy Store" (pole-dancing and stuff). I used to be almost as bad but not so much anymore. Something about seeing that trophy being hoisted by our guys a few times in the not-too-distant past makes me have faith. Should things go south badly (see 2013 season) then I will participate enthusiastically in the nay saying and name calling. Till then GO GIANTS!!!!
