Proud to be a Giants Fan Again

gersh : 2/4/2023 3:52 pm
It feels good to finally be proud to be a Giants fan again. It feels like it’s been a long time.

Incredible thanks to JS, BD, Wink and staff, and of course, all the players who have worked so hard to restore pride in this storied franchise.

On a personal level, as a grown man with children, I’m a bit embarrassed to say that my life is better when this team is better. Thank you.
I have been a Giants fn sine 1955 and I have always been proud

You were also one helluva OL
The name Jack Stroud always reminds me of the time when a defensive

lineman from another team named O'Bradovich was giving a Giants running back (Phil King) a hard time until Jack Stroud came over. Then O'Bradovich backed away.

Not to mention coming in for goal line stands with Rosie
More than being proud to be a Giants fan...

I really liked the 2022 Giants team. They were scrappy, never gave-up and were well coached. It's been too long since all of those things came together.
am with you Jack....

But the pride is back

I’ve been a fan through the good and the bad. I started being a fan with the Jerry Goldstyn and Pisarcik Giants and have missed only s handful of games through the decades.

It’s just a hell of lot more fun when the Giants aren’t terrible.

Their whole lives in which they were old enough to watch, the Giants games were basically me yelling at the screen. They wanted to be fans as they got Giants gear. But they’d check in as kids do and it’s always “are we winning?” Almost inevitably it was “no.” They’d frown and move on. Hard to interest them in a team that was hard to watch even for me.

It’s been nice this year to say yes, and try to engage them a bit more. Sad it took until they literally became teenagers.
