HTG, A Rumor I actually heard at TTD about Eli trade

Rich Houston-NYG-WR-1971 : 8/19/2014 8:09 am
I was driving back from work late last night in the city and decided to stop and get dinner at Tick Tock Diner. I was sitting at the stool area and trying to configure my fantasy team when a dude sat down next to me with a binder that had a Giants 'ny" emblem on it. The dude noticed the back of my phone had a "NY" logo on the protector and he asked where I bought that. I told him at a Kiosk in a mall.

So I noticed his binder and said cool binder and we ended up talking about the team. I eventually told him if he were a fan he should join BBI. He told me he already went to the site said alo of crazy posters on the site including a guy that drags an Eagle in the parking lot. Upon hearing this I laughed and said that guy was me man. He said holy crap..sorry I didn't mean to offend you I said none taken.

He then said to me you know I am into marketing and I hear a lot of stuff around the stadium and he told me the Giants might trade Eli to Houston or St.Louis in a two or three way trade. I said no way. The dude said very possible because Eli is in his option year and he is not comfortable with this new offense. I said well Houston needs a QB and St Louis is not all that enamrored with Bradford. He also said Tenneesee might be interested too.

I thought the guy was full of it until I saw him driving away in a brand new Audi Quattro. In any event

HTG means honest to God.

Agreed. He disappears for months, and then reemerges with entertaining whoppers. But we are still waiting to hear more about the great tater tot incident of 1974.

seals the deal. definitely true
dammit

I just got off graveyard shift and will be sleeping soon....I guess I have something to look forward to tonight.
I'm with steve  
Wuphat : 8/19/2014 8:26 am : link
The Audi clearly means it's happening.

Someone start the appreciation thread.

Book it.
oh and as long as we get Ryan Fitzpatrick in the deal  
Jints in Carolina : 8/19/2014 8:27 am : link
I'm all for it.
Amazing how a nice car brings credibility  
Jupiter : 8/19/2014 8:28 am : link
You can't get any kind of equal value in a trade for a franchise QB. No one is giving away franchise QBs in return.

A franchise QB only comes around rarely. If the Giants don't resign this one, they will just have to find one through the draft like they did before.
I say

Glad he's so valued though.
We'll, if he said the guy drove away in a Prius

Leave Klaatu alone.
Rich, was the guy headed west in the Audi?  
Crispino : 8/19/2014 8:30 am : link
Because Houston, St. Louis , and Tennessee are all west of the Tick Tock. Hmmmm......

Doesn't this imply an admission that his other Tick Tock rumors are all lies?

We're way too smart for you, Rich. Well, everyone but Brett.

I actually want his follow up on the WWIII  
RC02XX : 8/19/2014 8:36 am : link
that's about to result from the ongoing Ukraine-Russia conflict.

Rich...have you gleaned anything from your study of the American Revolution to tell us when WWIII will happen?
Brutal poster.  
arcarsenal : 8/19/2014 8:36 am : link
This act was worn out about 5 years ago.. and yet, he keeps going to the well trying to squeeze more life out of it when there is absolutely none.

Awful.

See now, that's the problem. He got confused when the guy offered him a fantasy trade and, to his addled senses, this registered as a real-world deal.

St. Louis and Houston?

Maybe we can get Donald and Clowney.
What is an Audi Quattro?  
CruzShip52 : 8/19/2014 8:43 am : link
Quattro means all wheel drive

So he was driving an audi with quattro?

All audi models come with a quattro option

Actually, Quattro was a named Audi model  
Wuphat : 8/19/2014 8:45 am : link
that was in production from 1980-1991.
Guys, can you help me out?

A friend of a friend in the marketing field seems to have left a binder with a Giants logo on it in the Tick Tock Diner. If anyone finds it, please return it, won't you? You may know him...

...the one part of the story that rings true is that Eli is not comfortable with the new offense. While I think Eli can be successful in any offense this side of a read-option, his talents are really best suited for a play-action, vertical offense.

And then there was this comment from Coughlin about Nassib, which could be viewed as a veiled criticism of Eli...

The thing I thought he did which really helped us, which we don’t have much of, is the quarterback starting to move sometimes and many times the threat of him coming out of there. So all you have to do is look at the other team, including Hasselbeck running up the sideline, 38 years old running up the field. That’s all you have to do, see it and know what that does to a defense if the quarterback can run.

Engorging his belly, and Cackling Cries,
He became enlightened and tears filled his Eyes,
Aha! He Cried, I've got the new skinny,
I've got to run out and share with the many,
How will I prove it,
they are sure to raise Cain,
An Audi is sure to make it Explain!

I also hear the Giants plan is on the Houston Bush airport runway

Rich, would we get anyone or are we just giving Eli away?
This is too fake to even be funny  
BeerFridge : 8/19/2014 9:06 am : link
Not even remotely believable that this is real.
Yes but he said brand new  
CruzShip52 : 8/19/2014 9:08 am : link
Audi Quattro that was what I meant wuphat
We don't need to get a QB in return  
Bill in UT : 8/19/2014 9:08 am : link
We've got Painter and Nassib
Never know  
Wuphat : 8/19/2014 9:10 am : link
It could have been garage kept for the past 15 years.

Old dealer stock, perhaps.

This is Rich we're talking about. His credibility is unassailable. How dare you doubt him?

The guy in the Audi was Eric from BBI  
dune69 : 8/19/2014 9:20 am : link
Rich just failed to recognize him. Who else would be out on the streets late at night with a NY binder.
I clicked on the link before seeing who the OP was,  
Section331 : 8/19/2014 9:21 am : link
but once I did, I regretted it. I don't doubt Rich is a Giants fan, but can one be a fan and a troll? If so, the OP is the biggest troll on BBI, and it's not close.
