Holy Giants Day

The New York Football Giants are in the Super Bowl. In other words, nothing else exists in my universe today. However, that doesn’t mean I can’t entertain you. For example, do you remember Beetlejuice? Of course you do.

I would be excited if the Giants were playing the Buffalo Bills or the Cincinnati Bengals or the Jacksonville Jaguars today. But they’re not. They’re playing the best franchise in the game and probably the best coach and quarterback of all time. I’ll be disappointed if the Giants lose, but I won’t be mad. All I expect of the Giants is that they make the playoffs every year. I just want at least one playoff game to watch. They’ve already exceeded my expectations. But if they beat Brady and the Patriots a second time, I’ll be in a good mood for weeks.
