Giants Need Redskins’ Help

What goes around comes around.  Don’t burn bridges.  You never know what tomorrow may bring.  Tomorrow’s another day.  The enemy of my enemy is my friend.

I don’t know which of the worn-out cliches above best applies to the New York Giants and the Washington Redskins, but the Giants’ players will surely come up with a few axioms of their own.  After all, they pretty much wiped the uninspired Redskins off the face of the earth at FedEx Field last week.  This week, they laid a Giant egg at home against the banged-up Carolina Panthers.  It was downright ugly at FedEx last week, and it was downright ugly today at Giant Stadium.  What a way to close out a historic sports venue.

So now the Giants need help, and they need it from the Redskins.  They need the Skins to beat the Cowboys.  I’m almost tempted to root for a tie tonight.  Almost.   It’s too bad I hate the Cowboys more than any other team.  I could care less about the Giants’ playoff hopes.

It’s too bad my boss is a Giants’ fan.  I’d dump all over the Giants.  I’m not afraid to do so.  He just does such a better job than me.  He yells at his TV.  I’ve been to his home – he has plenty of room for pacing back and forth.  Good thing.  Seriously, there’s nothing more fun than a disgusted Giants’ fan.  It beats listening to the incessant whining and outright denial spewed by Cowboys’ fans.  I can’t say much about Eagles’ fans – they’re on top of the world going into the playoffs.

New York started the season 5 – 0.  How on earth could they lose 41 – 9 at home to the Panthers?  I just hope Tom Coughlin doesn’t have a heart attack yelling at his players.  He’s old school – I kind of like him.  Anyhoo, now the Redskins have a much larger set of fans rooting for them tonight.  They’re the same people who laughed derisively at our Skins last week.  I need to check and see if there’s a full moon out tonight.  How odd.

All together now – Go Skins!
