Why Are We Fans?!
That game was miserable. No way to sugar coat this one Giants. The only thing I enjoyed was the iPhone/Siri/Santa commercial, “You have 3.7 billion appointments”—genius. Here’s a question I’d like to ask Siri, “Why am I a Giants fan, why do I put myself through all this misery?” Her answer, honest to God, “I don’t know. Frankly, I’ve wondered that myself.” Laughed so hard I almost cried. That Siri has got a good sense of humor. But back to our Giants, there is a lot riding on this week’s game—the season, Coughlin’s job, fans jumping ship and becoming J-E-T-S Jets fans. Well that would never happen, no matter how bad it gets. It may not be easy being a Giants fan, but we are loyal no matter what.
Seriously search YouTube for “Fan Reaction to Super Bowl 42” it will make you feel better. Below are links to some of my favorites. I must warn you some are nauseating and of course there’s some foul language, so tell the youngsters to leave the room or simply explain that this is just football. And if you find a great one post a comment with the link.
First relive the touchdown pass to Plaxico, this is a cool video shot by a fan in the stadium: http://youtu.be/JCdsv3SZwJU
Then relive your own joy as you watch these fans react:
Now it’s probably time to return to the present, it’s not good to live in the past, but sometimes it’s fun and this week it’s necessary.
And if you haven’t already, check out the new edition of “If The Season Ended Today“–it will blow your mind.
Let’s Go Giants!
