"We can't all be heroes because someone has to sit on the curb and clap as they go by." -Will Rogers
About 50 blocks south of me the New York Giants are holding court in the Canyon of Heroes. Thousands are flooding lower Manhattan in an overwhelming parade of gratitude. Thank you, Big Blue. For doing for your fans what the Red Sox did for Boston in 2004. We needed more than just a Super Bowl, and somehow the Giants gave it to us.

"That's why we took the damn field! Now, if you want to crown them, then crown their ass!" -Dennis Green on playing the Bears, MNF 10/16/06 I'm surprised management splurged and actually flew the New York Giants to Arizona. Wouldn't it have made more sense to just come to terms with the foregone conclusion of the Patriots' perfect season? Big Blue is overmatched, and Tom Brady is clearly Christ himself. Hell, New England already has applied for a trademark patent on "19-0." (I'm not making this up.) Does it matter who they're playing? The Giants are merely slated to be another blip of road kill on the Patriots' road to perfection. Which means the Patriots go down in history no matter what. As perfect or as chokers. And the Giants? Only a catalyst to either. (6 comments, 1319 words in story) Full Story By YankTank, Section Journals

Of course, we all know Bonds cheated to get there so that means his home runs don't count. Right? (641 words in story) Full Story By kevinrmcguire, Section NFL
For a stretch of years I have been picking the Eagles to win the NFC East. Is it blind loyalty or is it the fact that the Eagles have been playing the role of the top dog in the division for almost as long as Andy Reid has been in town? Call me a homer but the fact is the Eagles have been the best team year in and year out every year in the NFC East, even the disastrous post Super Bowl year they probably had the best talent top to bottom but injuries (and personal conflicts) derailed that season form the start. This year will be no different. (5 comments, 1751 words in story) Full Story By matt Jordan, Section MLB
