Across the NFL, NBA and NHL, teams in the state of New York are fighting separate battles against outbreaks of COVID-19. It's a frightening time in NY sports.
NY Giants' Daniel Jones has suffered damage in his neck, putting his season in jeopardy. Another year has passed without him proving he's a long-term option.
I laugh when people say that 'the Capital Region is a bad sports town.' Really? When people say that I sometimes feel that they are trying to find something wrong with everything. If you feel like I do, it's time to look at the facts. This is actually a pretty good sports 'town.'
Much of America wakes up to see Michael Strahan's smile greeting them, as they ready for their work day on Good Morning America. Yes, football fans know him a little better, seeing him as part of the Fox Sports halftime team each Sunday. Strahan is a natural on television. He was also a natural on the football field. Sunday, the New York Giants franchise declared that he was so good, no player will ever where his iconic number 92 again.
Joe Judge's second season as head coach of the New York Giants didn't exactly start where last season ended. Big Blue won 5 of their last 8 contests to end the season, culminating with a 23-19 victory over the Cowboys to end the head coach's rookie year. This season has not been so kind to the Giants head coach.
He's done just about everything. He's won a Super Bowl, he's been named to the Hall of Fame, and he's on TV. He has not, however, travelled to space. Until now.
It's no secret that Tom Brady likes to win and he's good at it, maybe the best. The 7 time Super Bowl champion could have as many as 9, if not for one particular franchise. Does that still eat at the Tampa Bay Buccaneers' 44 year old quarterback? Yup, Brady himself admits he is not a fan of the New York Giants, whom his Bucs face on Monday Night Football this week.
The New York Giants have a deep history with Albany and the Capital Region. Check out some of the best photos from camp, featuring the Giants biggest stars.
Yesterday's game for the New York Giants appeared to be as bad as it gets for a Big Blue fan. After what was a boring start of the game, I am not sure if I have ever seen a team play a worse 2nd Quarter, as the Giants did yesterday. The Los Angelas Rams scored 4 touchdowns in the second time-frame. One touchdown came off of a Daniel Jones fumble after being sacked. Another followed one of his interceptions, deep in New York territory. It was ugly.
