You can tell that Joey Styles looks buff though even though he is wearing a suit all of the time. I am sure working for ECW for all of those years and being in the business toughened him up a bit.

If so, that is the first real evidence that this bad economy is going to have an effect on free agent signings. That's a significant discount over every other significant closer signing in the past two of three years. Rumor out of the Winter Meetings is that there isn't much of a market for Manny either. Some think that he may even accept arbitration and play on a one-year deal. Well look at CC, he is waiting for a California team to offer him at least 100 million and it hasn't happened yet. He is pratically begging the Dodgers, Giants or Angels to sign him. He doesn't want to return to the Brewers and going to the Yankees is his worst nightmare. Manny is a glorified dh who shouldn't be playing in the National League. He is in his mid 30's and looking for a 4 year contract. I cant picture any National League team wanting that. How many teams in the American League can afford him and have a spot for him? He already burned his bridges in Boston, LAA hasn't shown any interest and has a jam of of/dh on their roster. I dont picture the Yankees signing him and how he forced his way out of Boston must scare alot of teams from giving him big money. One player that I am suprised that isn't receiving more interest is Jon Garland. He can be anywhere from a #4 to a #2 pitcher who is durable, has never been injured and pitches 190 innings plus every year since 2002. He is probably going to get half the money and half the Years that Burnett is going to get.

WFan is reporting that the Mets are close to signing KRod to a 3 year 37 million dollar deal.

Carolina winning helps the Giants out with HFA due to the strengh of schedule for the remainder of the season compared to the Bucs. The Bucs get the Falcons, the Chargers and the Raiders in the last 3 weeks. That should be 2 wins at least. The Panthers still have to play the Broncos, the Giants and then the Saints at the Superdome. Bucs have 2 conference losses while the Panthers have 3. Plus the Panthers winning helps the Giants control their own destiny more. If HFA comes down to their game in week 16 and the Giants lose than they dont deserve HFA.

For those who haven't bought the game yet. It's on Amazon deal of the day for Monday 12/08/08 360 $40 PC $30

Todays Amazon deals. Not a bad list Amazon's 15 Days/15 Deals continue: LittleBigPlanet - $39.98 Left 4 Dead - $39.98 360 Left 4 Dead - $29.98 PC Animal Crossing: City Folk - $29.98

Whhhaaattttttttttt????????????? Is Varitek beyond stupid now? He passed up on a 10 million dollar deal at least? Does he not know that he was probably the worst everyday posistional hitter in all of baseball last year? Pudge has a better chance of getting more money than Varitek.

Giants have won the NFC east and a first round bye. Just need to get HFA to complete the regular season.

Nobody expected the Giants to be 11-2 today. Out of their first 13 games, 10 have been against playoff caliber teams. Their last 3 games are going to be against playoff caliber teams. I am a huge diehard Giants fan and I am noticing that some are becoming spoiled and expecting wins all the time. It's funny to see so far that the Broncos are losing at home to the Chiefs while the Jets are losing to the 49'ers. I am sure Jets fans are just happy looking at the scoreboard.

I don't look at losses that way since I'm not a Steelers fan and don't play the woulda, shoulda, coulda game. The Giants were manhandled on both sides of the ball, and were only in the game thanks to special teams. If they'd play that game in Philly, it would almost be acceptable since you're not supposed to win divisional games on the road late in the year. If this is the kind of effort the Giants bring to January football at home, then we'll be this year's version of the '07 Cowboys. The Eagles ran over us with 8+ in the box, shredded our secondary and completely shut down our running game. That combination should be frightening to a fan of any team with championship aspirations. However it is only week 14 and the Giants only lossed by 6 with the Eagles only scoring 20 points. Today was a huge wakeup call for the Giants. Look at the Giants game last year against the Vikings late in the season. If I told you after that the Game the Giants would win the Superbowl and beat the Pats you would have had me locked up in a psych ward.

Ok well look at the positives. I dont care that the touchdown at the end was cosmetic because Hixon dropped a sure touchdown in the first half. Philadelphia beat the Giants in almost every aspect of the game, converted all day on 3rd down and only won by 6 points. You cant expect any team to play great week in and weak out against playoff level teams. A loss today can be good motivation for the team against the Cowboys next week. The Cowboys have to go 4-0 and the Giants going 0-3 for the Cowboys to win the division.

I have a question about HFA for the NFC. The winner of Monday Night Football will go to 10-3. Does anybody know the scenarios if Tampa or Carolina end the season tied with the Giants? I know that Carolina and the Giants play in 2 weeks. So the winner of that game should decide HFA if it comes down to those two tied.

The Giants lose by 6. They failed to stop the Eagles all day on 3rd down and held them to only 20 points. A loss can be a good motivational tool for Coughlin. You cant win every week.

What do you think of Espn reporting that the Browns are interested in bringing back Marty?

Nah man. If the Giants lose today they'll be pissed and Dallas hates playing physical teams. Whether they win or lose in Pittsburgh, their bodies aren't going to feel very good afterwards and they should be ripe for a Giants "response" ass-kicking. The Giants have given up about 103 straight 3rd down conversions to the Eagles. They've gotten the life kicked out of them on both sides of the ball, and Philly doesn't have a fraction of the skills players that Dallas does. Ross and Jacobs both got hurt and as we've seen in their two losses, when the Giants can't control TOP, they lose badly. If Barber doesn't play again next week that actually hurts the Giants because then Dallas will just pass all game and there's no way we can cover TO, Williams, Crayton, Witten and whoever else without any kind of pass rush. I don't believe the Giants have put McNabb on his ass once this game and Romo is far more mobile. If Dallas wins today then can close within a game of the division title by winning at home, and I think that's exactly what will happen. I am 99 percent sure that the Cowboys cannot win the Division if they are tied with the Giants at the end of the season. The Giants need 1 more win and that would give them a first round bye. Cowboys have to finish a game better than the Giants to win the division. If they end up blowing HFA then you can get pissed.

It's turning into a laugher as well at the Meadowlands. You would think that the Eagles were the defending champs at home 11-1 against the Giants who are 6-5-1 playing for the playoff lives. Eagles are 9-14 today on 3rd down. The Giants only have 3 conversions. And another 3rd down Conversion for the Eagles. Jesus christ!

Great play calling for the Giants today. 4th and 1 and they go shotgun. Element of suprise I'll tell ya! If they lose today it's going to be a very bad loss and hopefully Coughlin can kick some ass.

There is alot of time left but the Offense is going to have to wake up and the defense has got to make a third down stop. This is looking like the Giants defense before 07 where they never ever got a big stop.

Holy $$$$ the Giants blocked another field goal. When was the last time they have blocked 2 in a game?

Eagles have been converting all day on 3rd down agains the Giants.

Hixon has the serious case of Butterfingers. A NFL wide receiver has got to make that catch.

You do know that this is THQ right? Even when the roster was leaked they denied it. Legends of Wrestlemania is coming out in 3-4 months and how much have to released about the game? Box Art and a couple of pix/1 vid of Hogan vrs Andre.

Not even that, those are some pretty bad character models. Plus why would Rocky Johnson be in the game? I dont think he ever even wrestled at WrestleMania. Plus the character models are supposed to be larger than life like the action figures from the early to mid 80's. The photo shop of Savage and the Ultimate Warrior make them look like they had been off of Roids for years. Well, first of all...we'll have to see if the "WrestleMania" in the name comes to play at all or not. Secondly, he DID save his son at WrestleMania 13 from the beatdown from The Iron Sheik & Bob Backlund... Ok well the title of the game is Legends of WrestleMania, not WWE, not WWF, not Wrestling. Saving your son from a beatdown is not good enough to be included in this game when there are going to be at least 60 deserving wrestlers for 40 spots.
