Before. More so a hunch at first because Eli and coughlin tend to work magic every 4 years and whenever they are on the hot seat.

End of July was when I started to really believe we had our opportunity last season and that this year was gonna go to hell.

I still believe we can possibly turn things around though but the Giants are playing with an "us against the world" mentality similar to ours last year when we were supposed to go 4-12 according to all the forum experts/tv analysts.

Cowboys have a better roster than the Giants with Romo and everyone healthy so I have no idea how you came to that prediction.

LMAO you're reaching like hell. My exact "words" were not "Division winners" and "frontrunners" but using the 3-4 posts you can clearly tell, using basic intelligence, that I stated they may have a year similar to their 2011 and 2007 seasons. The same as I did in this thread using different verbiage in which case you wanted me to prove that I had these thoughts prior to the season.

Me making bets has everything to do with "not letting the enemy see you sweat" as I put it in those posts that you chose to ignore.

I understand you love engaging in arguments that you tend to lose quite often that you drag on and on but as Aaron Rodgers said,

R-E-L-A-X


The exact term you used in the post I quoted was "frontrunners." You said "I knew the Giants would probably be the front runners for the division this year." They weren't the "frontrunners" for the division in 2007 or 2011 they came out of nowhere to win the SB those years. You were hinting around the same thing could happen this season but you bet on the Cowboys and never once referred to the Giants as the "frontrunners" entering the 2015 season.

Lol who have the Giants beaten? The Commanders and a Buffalo team that is missing Sammy Watkins and LeSean McCoy along with Tyrod freaking Taylor at quarterback. Just because the Giants made runs in the past that fourth year doesn't mean that'll happen this year. Those teams had great defenses and this Giant defense has yet to be tested outside of opening night when Dallas torched them.

We won by a point due to their poor time management and playcalling. Same with them against the Falcons.

What have they done? What have WE done? At least they still have most of their starters. Our team is made of glass at nearly every position.

Doesn't matter, he is being shutdown. Hankerson with the big day and huge catch up 28-0

lol clearly someone who is just looking at the stats. Jones has still gotten his. He hasn't needed to have a huge day because Hankerson is feasting on all the attention Julio is getting and Freeman is having another monster day both on the ground and as a pass catcher.

You're picking and choosing what to quote and use interchangeably. I never said the Giants were front runners for the division in 2007 or 2011. I said that this year they will probably have a SIMILAR year to the 2007 and 2011 years in which they were expected to do nothing, and possibly go all the way due to the fact that Coughlin was on the hot seat, Eli was getting chastised to all hell, and because every 4 years they tend to go on this magical run. Hence the reason why I said "I hope I am wrong" after stating everything because if my thoughts weren't so, there'd be no reason to say "I hope I'm wrong."

I'm not going to continue this silly argument because it's plainly obvious that back on August 25th that the Giants had me worried, but I wanted to keep the faith; which is exactly what I still stated in this thread; that they look like they are going to follow true with my prediction/feeling back in the summer. I'm not going to let you bait me into a senseless argument in which a thread gets derailed like they generally do when you're involved. Matter of fact, I'll use one of your favorite techniques and do you a favor by placing you on 'ignore.'

Have a nice day sir!

just because you think it... don't mean you have to write it...


just sayin.....

Check his post history when he argues with forum members. Its extremely odd. He reaches for the high heavens even after he's been proven wrong. Sometimes I think he trolls on purposes, or his life outside of this forum may be non-existent.

Haha okay so basically the only argument this guy has is the Giants have made SB runs every four years despite not having anywhere near the personnel they did for those runs.

Your not shutting anything down if you're losing, 35-0. Apparently, they don't even need him today.

And if this is about fantasy football, just stop.

Go back to the posts back in August 25th that I quoted. Asthmafield and I were exchanging opinions in which he asked the very same thing you did and I explained that was not the case.

By the way, the personnell wasn't considered to be all world until AFTER their run. Cruz wasn't an allstar entering the year; neither was JPP; neither was Eli for the matter; neither was their running game. They came out no where.
