ESPN Dropped The Giants Down 3 Spots To 8th In Their NFL Power Rankings And I Absolutely LOVE It
I’m honestly not a big power rankings guy. They are just something to keep the NFL conversation going for like the 2 days a week where an NFL game didn’t just happen or is about to happen. But when I got this notification on my phone, had to do a triple check to make sure I read it right. I guess beating the team with the best record in the NFL and the first place team in the NFC North just doesn’t get you what it used to. But you know what? I fucking love it. Ben McAdoo needs to keep his dogs hungry like Ramsay Bolton, ready to eat at any given moment. Everything I’ve been reading online and hearing on podcasts the last 24 hours is how the Giants are locks to face the Patriots in the Super Bowl. Big Blue’s dick has been getting sucked by everyone while Pats fans jump off buildings and Cowboys fans chew whatever fingernails are left on their front-running hands. Oh yeah and Benny Mac’s sexy ass has morphed into New England boogeyman General Coughlin right in front of our very eyes.
We all know when the Giants are ready to fall apart in December or when they are ready to go on a roll where Eli becomes Elite, Modells has to fire up their overnight printers for championship shirts, and City Hall becomes blue in early Februrary. And this feels like one of those runs, especially as the Packers now look like they can with the NFC North. It isn’t a Giants Super Bowl run without the playoff win in Lambeau. But we need the Giants to remain focused until that beautiful little letter appears next to their name in the standings. These power rankings will hopefully do that. And can you imagine the viral videos Ben McAdoo will use to motivate the team this week? Maybe he’ll show them the video of that kid appearing to jerk off at the Chargers game and say its up to the Giants not to fuck themselves or some shit. Benny Mac’s motivational ploys know no limits.
And let me just say that if the Giants do in fact face and lose to the Patriots in Super Bowl LI, it will mean a ton to their franchise and fan base. Finally slaying big bad Eli Manning will cause blood to rush to the nether regions of every New Englander on the planet. But nothing, and I mean NOTHING, will ever top Super Bowl XLII. Super Bowl champions get remembered, but 18-1 and stopping the 2007 Patriots from achieving football immortality will never die.
That being said, fuck Mercury Morris.
