I'm not rolling my eyes at you for posting this by the way... I'm rolling them at the NY Daily News article.

Make no mistake, the NY Daily News staff are undoubtedly Giants season ticket holders. Their articles are their way of proving it.

Seems this could be quelled quickly if indeed there is video evidence and/or witnesses who saw this girl getting beat up at a bar.

Smells like a money grab but frankly, with the way offseasons go for this franchise nowadays, I expect the gut punch repeatedly.


This season has a dark cloud hanging over it before it even begins.


Lawrence, McClain, Gregory getting suspended, Zeke getting accused of beating a chick up, the team bus wrecking, heck i'll even throw in another 2nd rounder that may not be any use to us ever.



Super Bowl this year? Probably not.

The lack of positivity before the season even starts is just not a good sign for what is to come.

Lack of positivity? Hilarious. This is football, not Carebears.

And just think, we haven't even gotten to the part where injuries happen yet!

Maybe I'm an optimist, actually I know I am but don't believe it.

2014 was nearly as bad. We lost Ware and Hatcher in the offseason. Our rookie to replace Ware was hurt, Scandrick was suspended, our QB was coming back from a bad injury. I believe Josh Brent was suspended with that cloud over him.

I'm not predicting Super Bowl but I am not reading too much into the negativity in July.

Plus, Lee tore his ACL in the first OTA

The fact that she is pressing the issue to go forward says she may not be a total liar as some think.
She could be saying her relationship was abusive, not just that one night or incident.

I sort of think Elliot made some sort of promises to this girl like when I get the check I will do this or that, and then when he got it,
he said bye bye.
And on top of that he could have treated her poorly, and got rough with her. Not saying he did, but it is possible.

And about the police, that is in the area where he was the big star at ohio state, and the police may feel as many here do ??

My thought is this, if Elliot had been nice to this girl, and not made promises he wasnt going to keep, just to string her along and do
what he wanted, and then broke up with her in a civil manner , I dont think this would be happening right now.

I've watched enough Cowboy football to know that off the field negativity carries over to the field probably more than any other team.

This team is a weak minded group that loooooves to find ways to lose.


When years like 2014 start to become the norm then I will forget about it but 2014 is slooowly becoming 2007 all over again. A distant memory.

Very true we havent even lost some starters for the season due to injury yet.

I don't agree with that take at all...if the cops didn't arrest him that morning with fresh bruises, they aren't going to go back in time and believe some story of abuse in the past

we have no idea if EE was nice, mean to or promised this girl anything...every thing else is just speculation

Don't forget going into that camp Jerry had been exposed for his behavior with women. That was a wonderful few days of news coverage. this year its Elliot who has potential DV problems, last year we intentionally took on the biggest negative story in the league in Hardy.

a few years before that we on purpose took on Tank Johnson and Pacman, before that Owens.

Basically if you are a criminal or a malcontent you always have a home here because once upon a time in another universe Charles Haley worked out for the team.

It sucks. I cant wait till we sign burfict after he gets in more trouble in Cincy and gets released. The interviews and press announcements from Irvin, sanders and Jerry telling us he is a good dude who is a misunderstood will be fun.
