Giants Trade Damon Harrison, Prepare For Long Winter Of Tanking

The NFL trade market has been unusually active in the days leading up to this year’s deadline, thanks in large part to the willingness of the crap-ass Raiders and Giants to spend the rest of the season tanking. The Giants began their march to the toilet yesterday when they traded cornerback Eli Appl...

Did You Hear About This? The Giants Have Two Players Named Eli, And They Traded The Wrong Freakin' One!

Today, the New York Giants traded Eli ... cornerback Eli Apple, that is. Ah, did you think it’d be their once-great, now-disintegrating quarterback Eli Manning? Don’t you look like an ass, now! It was in fact their underwhelming defensive player, who’s going to the Saints for some late picks....

San Francisco Giants Owner Charles B. Johnson Donated To Super PAC That Made That Super-Racist Radio Ad

A super PAC called Black Americans for the President’s Agenda paid for a staggeringly racist radio ad in support of Mr. Peanut-looking-ass Arkansas congressman French Hill that dropped yesterday. The ad was targeted towards black voters (the PAC ran a similar ad in Missouri) and it features two cari...

Odell Beckham Jr. And The Giants Aren't On The Same Page On Drinking Water

Odell Beckham Jr., an NFL superstar who has had to leave multiple games this year to receive IVs because of cramping, dislikes drinking water because it gets all “sloshy” in your stomach. Come on....

Saquon Barkley Is So Good And It Just Doesn't Matter

The Giants are the worst sort of bad team: one whose braintrust clearly believed was a contender for a playoff spot in the offseason, only to be revealed as a total moribund disaster once the regular season began. Most of this is because Eli Manning is a husk of himself and presently either unable o...

You Can't Hide Eli Manning

Here’s a fun thing to think about: Has an offense with the quality of skill players that the New York Giants possess ever looked this bad? This is a team that lines up one of the best wide receivers in football, a rookie running back who treats defenders like bad guys in a Kung Fu movie, and a big, ...

Odell Beckham Jr.'s Extended Meltdown Continues

The Giants are getting flattened by the Eagles Thursday night. It’s a dismal show, bad enough that almost anyone could be forgiven for bailing on it early. But not everyone! Some people should stick around. Like, for example, Odell Beckham Jr., who was spotted marching angrily to the locker room wit...

Report: The Giants Fined Odell Beckham Jr. For The Lil Wayne Interview

Four days after it aired, and five days after he apologized for it, and more than a week after it was filmed, Jay Glazer reported Thursday night that the New York Giants have fined Odell Beckham Jr. for remarks he made during a surreal interview that aired during Sunday NFL Countdown last weekend....

Report: Eli Manning Is Losing The Giants' Locker Room

By picking running back Saquon Barkley second overall in what was a quarterback-rich draft class, the Giants let it be known they were all-in this year on Eli Manning, who will turn 38 in January. It’s been seven years since the Giants last won a Super Bowl, and they’ve made the playoffs just once i...

What Can We Learn From Four Stadium Deals That Don't Suck?

Whenever professional economists are asked about stadium and arena deals, they invariably explain, for the hundredth time, that these “almost never” work out to the benefit of the public. (Look, here are a bunch saying so just a few weeks ago!) Between the price tags in the hundreds of millions of d...

“At one point during a non-televised break they chanted my name while I danced like a wedding drunk to the O’Jays’ ‘For The Love of Money,’ knowing full well that the song reminds us what money is: The Root of All Evil.” Joe MacLeod wrote a highly entertaining account of his experience on Who Wants ...

Belfast Giants Hockey Player Denied Ass-tonishing Goal By Boring Refs

Hockey moves blindingly fast. At its highest levels, it becomes a breakneck ballet, demanding split-second decision-making, nimble movement, and constant improvisation from its practitioners. In a recent game in the UK’s Elite Ice Hockey League, Belfast Giants forward Patrick Dwyer (formerly of the ...

Giants Give Up On Former Top-10 Pick Ereck Flowers

It’s conventional wisdom that building a good football team requires the acquisition of a great left tackle. This is the rule the New York Giants were attempting to follow in 2015, when they used the ninth overall pick in the draft on University of Miami left tackle Ereck Flowers. The player picked ...

Graham Gano's 63-Yard Game-Winner Caps Off Wild Ending To Giants-Panthers

The back-and-forth shootout between the Giants and the Panthers was an entertaining spectacle where narratives seemed to go through entire life cycles multiple times, and each team’s season outlook changed by the minute. With 2:16 left to go in regulation, Graham Gano converted his third field goal ...

Odell Beckham Jr. Follows Up Trashing His Teammates By Muffing Punt, Surrendering Touchdown [Update]

Odell Beckham Jr. said a lot of not so nice things about his Giants teammates in an interview that aired on ESPN this morning. The Giants kicked off their game against the Panthers not long after, and so far Beckham’s biggest contribution to the game was not of the positive variety....

Odell Beckham Jr. Gives Brutally Honest Interview About Eli Manning And Struggling Giants Offense

In a Sunday NFL Countdown segment called “Odell Unfiltered,” Giants receiver Odell Beckham Jr. gave an interview alongside Lil Wayne to ESPN’s Josina Anderson about how the season has gone so far. Simply put, it hasn’t been great for the NFL’s highest-paid wide receiver. In the interview he explains...

Alvin Kamara Never Goes Backwards

Saints running back Alvin Kamara doesn’t look like one of those dense orbs of muscle and tendon that you expect to dish out a great deal of harm to anyone who tries to tackle him. You look at a human medicine ball like LeGarrette Blount, each of whose limbs appear to weigh 200 pounds, and you natura...

The Giants Finally Used Saquon Barkley The Right Way

The Giants beat the Texans for their first win on Sunday, and they may have even saved their season. Aw, hell. This one calls for a few exclamation points. The offense looked like it wasn’t even trying to get Eli Manning killed! Manning actually played pretty well! Odell Beckham Jr. looked like Odel...

Conservative D.C. Is A Bunch Of Weird-As-Hell Nationals Fans

There’s no reason to know who Ben Hobbs is. He’s one of the anonymous ideology droids that fill Washington D.C.’s less-interesting condominiums, pad out its cocktail parties, and ensure that its steakhouse banquettes never get cold. When Republicans are in power, he will work in government; when the...

This Is Who The Giants Are

I don’t want to hear a single reader complain about having to watch the Giants in primetime. Buddy, I live here; I’m forced to watch them every week. And yes, based on this extensive firsthand knowledge, they absolutely are this bad....
