The art work is by SDFM and totally random. Yesterday was a damn fine day. The Giants got a big win to keep them in the hunt and the Eagles showed that teams count more than players. More thoughts on that after the jump.

THE WOMAN and I had dinner last night with two other couples at a good little place in Gaithersburg. While Dogfish Head sounds more like something THE BOY would call his buddies it is really a great micro brew house/eatery. We had a waiter that admitted to going both ways, but only for the food, and a seater-greeter who claimed to be a 60-minute man. It was the first night for the waiter to work tables by himself so THE MARINE, THE OTHER GUY, and I gave him hell all night. The beer was good and I highly recommend the brats covered in sweet pepper sauerkraut with chili as a side dish special. The after effects are pretty intense so be sure to take that into consideration when ordering.

Enjoy the rest of your Columbus Day.

TO showed his ass on the sidelines about not getting the ball enough. Despite what he said after the game about it not being about him, he really thought it was. He acted that way with the 49ers, then with the Eagles. Now he’s starting to act out as a Cowboy. Is that really a shocker? Keep watching him on the sidelines the rest of the year. If Bledsoe keeps sliding backwards ‘the player’ is going to get harder to deal with. Remember, it is all about him.

In the other game LaVar showed that doing your job as a team is the best revenge. The Giants had an extra week to get ready, but they also knew they had to win. The ‘Skins were starting to look impressive but the rest of the NFL got to see how to shut them down. It really comes down to two things. Shut down Clinton Portis and pressure the hell out of Brunell. The Giants did both yesterday and gave Eli the chance to move down field with the ball.
