Lucky me

It is always nice when you have the privledge of watching two of the best at something go up against eachother. Bird / Magic. LT / AP. You get the picture.

This past sunday, I had the honor, nay the privledge of watching the two best at being terrible Qbs that i have ever seen. Eli Manning vs. Tavarias Jackson. Now im not going to discuss Jackson, he is crappy and no one cares. But Eli? Now that is one of the all time train wreck games of a supposed franchise qb. And you know what? its time to pull the plug.

Its not that his stats are bad, they aren't generally, his qb rating is solid and at the end of the year you can look at his stats and convince yourself that he wasnt that bad. Dont worry though, he really is. The guy is not a winner in any sense of the word. ive heard that he is getting skewered in the media at NY for not getting emotional. ive heard that you cant ask a guy to change who he is. Thats a defense? Dont ask a QB of an NFL team to be emotional? that is who he is? seriously? seriouslar? I believe the QB is supposed to be a leader. Ive yet to meet a successful leader that wasnt emotional. That didnt wear everything on his sleeve when it came to the success of his team. Get rid of this guy now, he isnt winning a super bowl . . .ever. Thats the goal right, just one and done in the playoffs isnt the end game for the giants. At least it shouldnt be. Trade him now while he is young and you can trick the 9ers that he still has a future. Let fans of another town have to deal with him. There were throws last week that could have been called for intentional grounding if they werent intercepted first; he had no idea where his receivers were. And it wasnt like he was gambling / gunslinging a la Brett Favre for these picks. They were standard 8-10 yard routes over the middle. Absolutely terrible. How can an owner watch this guy and not think they need a new QB.

Get rid of him that is the only option.

quick thoughts.

A: I want the Red Sox to trade for Johan Santana.
B: I am ok giving up Ellsbury, Buckells, whomever. its friggin santana.
C: SANTANA!
D: The knicks are a joke.
E: GO SAINTS!
