Well, for every anti Giants meme you post, Gloop could post 10 more, so you'd just be wasting your time. Rumor has it the Giants have reached out to play the Commandos twice this year... so fingers crossed the Giants can rest their players those weeks while picking up two easy wins en route to what is looking like an undefeated season for us. Edit: Indeed the Commandos accepted our challenge! Here are my thoughts on the season: 1. Cowboys - Jerry Jones still in charge - easy Giants win 2. Cardinals - Cards too tired from heat exhaustion - easy Giants win 3. 49ers - Too much team confusion - easy Giants win 4. Seahawks - Geno Smith will revert to Jets form - easy Giants win 5. Dolphins - Tua won't last this long - easy Giants win 6. Bills - Daboll will know everything the Bills will do - not so easy Giants win 7. Commandos - lol - very easy Giants win 8. Jets - Hmm. That new QB they have is supposed to be good - Giants win 9. Raiders - Same Raiders, different city - easy Giants win 10. Cowboys - see #1 11. Commandos - see #7 12. Patriots - The Giants own the Pats - easy Giants win 13. Bye 14. Packers - The Lambeau Leap will be off the balcony by now - easy Giants win 15. Saints - The return of the 'aints - easy Giants win 16. Eagles - Not sure how many players the Giants will be resting - Giants win 17. Rams - Giants resting most of their players - Giants win 18. Eagles - Giants resting all of their players - Giants win - Jeff

The Giants, despite making the playoffs, were 1-5-1 last year against the NFC East. That has to change this year given the better competition we will be facing. Given the Eagles and Cowboys are ranked #2 and #6 in the entire NFL as of now, that road doesn't get any easier. Nevertheless, one can make a good argument our roster has gotten noticeably stronger vs last year. However hard the road for the Giants, it will be way harder for the Commandos. I recommend choosing paper over plastic so you have a good supply to wear over your head during games. Eyeholes are optional. As for refreshment, I'd go with Fireball Cinnamon Whiskey. It goes down easy and quick, so polishing off the bottle won't be too difficult. Even better, the resulting hangover is long lasting so you should also sleep comfortably through the highlights the next day. - Jeff
