Are you rooting for a win or loss on Sunday?

B in ALB : 11/9/2017 6:12 pm
It's a tough one. Hate seeing the team embarrassed like this. But I'm rooting for a loss.

I just can't bring myself to do that even if it's for the best, but I won't be sad if they do in fact lose.
For a win.

can never root for a loss. However, if they are losing and have no chance of winning, I hope they get blown out.
Same it’s been for a month now...

..since it became clear the season was beyond hope. I want a loss before and after the game but while the game is going on I root for them to win. Yes, I know, borderline crazy. Such is life at various times as a Giants’ fan since ‘58.

This is probably closer to how I feel. Wouldn't be terribly upset with a loss. But a win we wouldn't make me feel any better about the season. It might make me feel worse about next.

But I do hate me some 9'ers.

A tie would be hilarious.
Rooting for a tie.

Depends if the loss gets Mcadoo fired?

I would love a win, but not if it will save Mcadoo..

Beer Man : 11/9/2017 6:26 pm : link
Will I actually watch the game? That I'm not sure. Something about meaningless games takes the desire and excitement out of it.
Win.

Why would I watch football if I don't want my favorite team to win?

Same here, pj.
Truthfully, a loss  
est1986 : 11/9/2017 6:44 pm : link
This team is so disappointing, I had SB expectations for this team coming into the season.. A top 3 pick at least gives me something to look forward to this offseason. Get some good draft assets, re-up some of our guys, bring in some guys at the right spots, address the poor coaching staff and boom right back into a position to actually compete. This team on Sunday is crippled and has been a dud for too long in the season for winning to matter now. Don't get me wrong, I will be rooting for the Giants to make plays on Sunday but if I could just pick a winner the brain overrules the heart and I want a 9ers win this Sunday.
Effort  
Dragon : 11/9/2017 6:45 pm : link
In all three areas of the game but I believe the defense will show will the other two areas most likely not. Compete don’t care about a win just compete on defense, offense and special teams. Hate to say it guys but one of those heart breaking games we’ve been accustomed to in the last five years would be great win or lose.
I fully expect a win......  
Simms11 : 11/9/2017 6:46 pm : link
The 49ers could actually be worse then Cleveland this year. If we lose this game, then there’s no hope for this staff. With that said, I’m sort of indifferent. I’d like to see a win, but if they lose, I just chalk it up to better draft positioning. I’d also like to see certain players excel.
I cant root for a loss  
cjohn2979 : 11/9/2017 6:53 pm : link
but obviously a loss would be better for the Giants. At this point winning is losing.
I stopped rooting around week 4...

Not rooting for a loss.

But I'm not going to be bitching about big plays or going apesh*t over good plays.
Loss, absolutely.

I can’t physically sit there and do it, so I’ll probably refrain from watching and do something fun w the kids.
A loss.

I feel the same way. When I see them on the field, I can't help but get my hopes and spirits up.

glad some people get it...no reason for to root for a win with this bum a** who gives no effort. It makes me no less of a fan for wanting this team to get the best pick possible that could possibly turn the franchise around.

rooting for a win is insanity at this point. We need losses to purge the entire football operation...

is like playing for next years fantasy football season right after your draft. You always play for this year, and always root for a win. Otherwise you aren't happy unless your miserable, and take joy in other's failures to make yourself feel better.
Pjcas 18 Has it Right  
Samiam : 11/9/2017 7:27 pm : link
You root for a win but won’t be crushed by a loss. As an aside, even if you’re just focused on next year, it’s better for the team to win as many games as possible. Young players need to learn to win games and how to win games. The team is not going to flick a switch next year if they continue losing this year. These are not exhibition games
I am rooting for any player that shows me he cares  
Jimmy Googs : 11/9/2017 7:28 pm : link

A loss. And another bad loss at that.

I've been a die-hard GIANTS fan for over 60 years. I've seen the best and the worst. And the worst is RIGHT NOW. I have NEVER seen a GIANTS team just quit like they did last week.

They need more shocks that shake ownership to their very bones and finally spur some long overdue changes in the front office and the coaching ranks. Then and only then can they start crawling out of this disaster.
Sorry but anyone rooting for a win

yankees78 : 11/9/2017 7:39 pm : link
Shit needs to change.
A loss to the winless 49ers might just be rock bottom(lol) to make sure things will change with regard to the coaches and GM.
My version of tough love. Sorry.
Looking for a loss  
The_Boss : 11/9/2017 7:39 pm : link
Don’t care how either: blow out, slop fest, FG at the gun..whatever. I want to go 1-15 and see if that nets a top 2 pick. It should.
.....  
Route 9 : 11/9/2017 7:52 pm : link
Don't really care and haven't thought about the outcome of this game at all. It doesn't matter either way. Go 1-15 for all I give a hoot.

Kind of forgot there was even a game this week. There is literally nothing to see with this team. The season is over and has been over and the worst thing about it is there are still EIGHT more games of "football" to be played. They seem to not really care the way they're playing, so why should I really?

I hope I remember to watch it.
