Q: Has your level of optimism changed in regards to an extension for QB Eli Manning?

A: I think we’ll get it done at some point in time. We’re just going through the usual things that you go through. The agent asks for the moon, we make a reasonable offer, and at some point he’ll come to his senses and we’ll reach an agreement. There’s nothing unusual about this.
exactly how many fucking questions could they possibly

going to miss Tom Coughlin one day....man, I really respect that guy, and I'm proud he is our coach.

Mr. Mara as well, just pure class from both of those gentlemen. Makes me proud to be a fan of the New York Giants

This is something that is so rare among professionals Tom's age. This is how you last and have success.
Missed the whole qoute

"Again, coming from where I’m coming from, it’s not a question anymore about what we used to do. It has to be what’s best for the current times, and this seems the way to go."
thanks

gidie...got my dates screwed up.
Tom is so impressive in so many ways

The thing that I use to measure a player or a coach is not so much their current ability level as much as it is their attitude about their profession. You'd think TC being a coach as long as he has and with all the playing and coaching experience might slow down a little a ride on what he knows. That's not Tom. Tom is constantly trying to improve himself, to raise his bar so that he can be better at helping the players raise their bar. We are so very lucky to have a man like TC leading our team.

TC: But as far as souring, that’s not going to sour anything.
George: Oh, that's not good enough! You don't try and de-sour.
You have to sweeten too!
TC: I'll try! I'll try and de-sour and sweeten.
