New York Giants finally finding respect
R-E-S-P-E-C-T!
It has been a loooong time coming, New York Giants’ fans. That rumble you hear growing louder in the distance, though, is the sound of R-E-S-P-E-C-T building for your defending Super Bowl champions.
The Giants spent the off-season listening to the experts say they were champs, but they still weren’t the best team last season. And they spent the pre-season listening to a host of predictions that they wouldn’t make the playoffs, and might not even finish .500.
Eli Manning wasn’t really that good. Michael Strahan was gone. Osi Umenyiora was hurt. Jeremy Shockey was in New Orleans. How could they possibly be any good?
Well, two impressive season-opening victories and the tide of opinion seems to changing.
