After watching these videos and the Senior Bowl workouts Hill is becoming one of my favorite players
How can you not root for him and his sister.....

Sweet video....him and Hernandez will bring an attitude and a toughness that we need more of.....

I would love to see him teamed up with Snacks.....

Is this what people are doing

When I see them on their cell phones while driving? No wonder insurance costs are skyrocketing.
She is pretty annoying

Haha, I clicked it and turned it off once I saw how long it was. My social media and overall video attention span is at about a 30 second limit.

I can only imagine the excitement, joy and pride she and her family must’ve felt having her brother get drafted by the New York Giants and hopefully be celebrated by their outstanding fan base, that’s thought of throughout the league as one of the most classiest fan bases. It’s obvious from her video how happy they are for him. Like some others, I thought the video was a little long and drawn out so I just listened to it in the background while doing other things last night and honestly didn’t make it through the whole thing (made it about halfway). It wasn’t really my ‘cup of tea’ as they say.

Unlike some, though, I didn’t feel the need to post those thoughts on a thread dedicated to her video... on a New York Giants fan site... that either her, their family, or B.J. himself may visit and see. To each their own I guess.

Very happy for Hill and his family. My point was actually just to say it was way too long. Should have just posted the call from coach and celebration because that's where I fast forwarded to.

I felt it was way too long too. But I guess I just would’ve came with maybe a bit less negative tone is all I’m saying. This woman is seeing her brother off to start a journey and even though I too thought it was a little long I would’ve just shrugged my shoulders and said ‘Well... it’s her video... who am I to judge how long it needed to be?’ but left the negativity off the thread. Imagine one of her family members finding this site... seeing her video posted on it... being excited about finding it on here... and then reading some of the comments underneath it. Imagine if B.J. were your cousin and this is your first introduction to Giants fans. I’m just saying... if we’re supposed to be so much classier than say Eagles fans, let’s act like it.

My bad...  
T-Bone : 5/12/2018 2:56 pm : link
don’t know how I messed that up.

Not a big deal. I just don’t see what the purpose was to shit on the video like this. Like a cousin once told me, ‘If ya don’t have something nice to say, just shut da fuck then.’. LOL!
Those youtube videos are great

I especially liked the Q&A he had with the kids from his old elementary school. That must have been awesome for them.

chopperhatch : 5/12/2018 3:49 pm : link
But that would annoy the piss out of me. You're putting my accomplishment on a fucking youtube channel? I really cant listen to the radio on the way to the airport because you want to capitalize on your social media status?

She is annoying.

T-Bone : 5/12/2018 4:42 pm : link
Didn’t seem to bother him. Which is who the video is about. If he didn’t like it or want it, pretty sure he’d have let his sister know. The video isn’t about you or your feelings, so why do they matter enough to shit on a thread dedicated to a video showing him some love from his sister?

You say ‘Not to be a jerk...’ but I’m about to say something that’s gonna make me look like one anyway. Why? Because you can? Seems kind of petty to me. Why not just let them have their little bit of happiness and show their pride in their own way without being judged for it? This guy is about to start living his dream and he’s allowed his sister to document it in her own way. IMO, they should be allowed to do so without having some strangers judging them based on their own feelings.

I’m not looking to really argue with anyone about this. I guess I just don’t get the hate. Even if you don’t care for the video (which, as I said, I didn’t myself), why the need to put it out there like that?
11 minutes ... while kinda long -  
short lease : 5/12/2018 10:42 pm : link

The one she made of draft day was over 1/2 hour.

There was an article on Hill that had nothing but High High praises of Hill _ work ethic, passion, football smarts, toughness ....

Quickly becoming one of my favorites.
Found the article -

Youre absolutely right about that T. Now I do feel like a jerk. 😕

I didnt think about her checking out the site at all and seeing the thread. She seems to just be very proud of her brother and I sounded like a shit saying what I did. Its just social media in general I guess where everybody just wants attention. Ive definitely become somewhat numb to those who are merely expressing themselves to a large audience.

Thanks for putting it in a better perspective.

Miss, if you did actually read my fairly assish post, I apologize for it. As I said above, I can be quick to be diminishing about social media in general and that is not without cause. I'm happy for your brother's success, that he's eith my favorite team and he is very lucky to have a sister who is so supportive and proud of him. Good luck to you and BJ!
Nice chop. Very big of you sir.

Again, I’m actually on YOUR side in that I’m not a big fan of those kinds of videos. But instead of announcing my displeasure on here... I saw no need to put it out there for it to possibly be seen by someone connected to them and ‘rain on their parade’. That’s all.

Whew... I thought you were gonna cuss ME out. If that was the case I was just gonna let it go and let ya have your way as it’s not that serious to me. While I have the stance I have... I also recognize (as she should) that ya gotta take the bad with the good when you put yourself out there like this.

T, you know me....Im unfiltered. I speak what I think. Thats far from always being the best strategy. However, despite my virulent disdain for dumb things, I want to be fair and on the right side whenever possible. Your post made a world of sense...as do the majority of yours. It showed me a perspective I hadnt considered pror to my pist and I am not afraid to admit that. In addition to talling football, this place allows me to do just that: glean new approaches to subjects from other posters... most of whom Ive never met.

Cheers T. Pleasure as always.
