Guest Redhawk Report post Posted May 7, 2004 I just saw on Sportscenter that the NFL office has already received 7 complaints from NYG players about their "voluntary" workouts. I'm not sure if it's the workouts themselves or that the players feel they're involuntary, but we'll see what happens... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Vitamin X Report post Posted May 8, 2004 Nice to know Tom Coughlin is still an asshole. They can't compete in the East anyways with the Eagles, Cowboys, and THE RETURN OF THE HOGS~! in Washington. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

2GOLD 0 Report post Posted May 8, 2004 So a bunch of lazy Giant players can't handle hard work and so Coughlin is the asshole? The NY Giants used to be a tough group, now they sound like a big bunch of little cry babies. And if (big IF though) Eli is crying, he should shut up after that lovely first day. Eli sounded like he was confused and still "gee golly shucks" about it. Doubt he was one of the seven though. They all need to shut up and get back to work. They could be in the toughest division in the NFL. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kinetic 0 Report post Posted May 8, 2004 I doubt that Eli's one of the complainers, considering that he didn't mention this incident in his absolutely uproarious rookie diary, currently available to one and all on the main page of this very site. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

EVIL~! alkeiper 0 Report post Posted May 9, 2004 I hate sportswriters and fans who claim athletes in general are lazy bums and crybabies. Yes, there are exceptions, but most are hard-working. That's how they got to their level in the first place. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TheDevilAndGodAreRagingInsideMe 0 Report post Posted May 9, 2004 I'm just going to throw out seven random Giant names. DE Kenny Holmes, OL David Dhiel, OL Jeff Hatch, WR Ike Hilliard, OL Chris Bober, DT William Joseph, CB Ralph Brown. Out of pure speculation and picking out seven completely random names off the top of my head, I bet two or more of them are the complainers. Edit -> I'd add Ron Dayne, but apparently Coughlin is high on him for whatever reason, so I left him off. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gert T 0 Report post Posted May 9, 2004 The funniest part is that if Coughlin gets run fairly quickly, the new coach will not keep many of the current guys around, since they played bad for two coaches. However, if Coughlin survives the first year, there will be a massive turnover I suspect. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest El Satanico Report post Posted May 10, 2004 Coughlin will be gone by next season. They won't win this year and the team will turn on him. If they win the players won't say a thing, so Coughlin better hope they win alot. :still waiting for Peyton and Lebron to fall on their faces: yaaawn Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yes I know it was to shed some humor on the whole Eli Manning debacle, but at the same time, it was just not funny. It seemed too "tacked on" as well as cliched.

converge241 0 Report post Posted May 11, 2004 Coughlin is a uber-hard ass but the giants are going to need to toughen up to have any remote shot of not finishing last in the division Eli is my favorite college player in long time so im hoping they improve and think these methods will help the only thing that coughlin does that i DONT agree with is his view/stance on injuries: that they are more mental than anything if he could just temper his views on that id like the guy a whole lot better Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
EVIL~! alkeiper 0 Report post Posted May 12, 2004 Too bad Coughlin's stuck in the 1910s. Teams don't lose or win games because of "toughness" or "mental fortitude," they win or lose based on luck and talent. They certainly don't lose because they crossed their legs at the team meeting.
