@Frank Apisa,
I know a lot more about sandwiches than I know about American football, but I fully understand what it means to support your home team.

I only hope your team is doing better than mine.

@George,
I recall those days well. I remember watching YA Tittle and the famous poster pix of his kneeling body and on his knees with blood trickling down his forehead and cheek. BTW, I just looked it up and Yalberton Abraham Tittle passed on at age 90.

@Frank Apisa,
BroadwayJoe Namath was responsible for putting AFC on the map with his bravado and “guaranteeing a win” in the 1969 SB.

Yup...he did indeed.

And I remember Y.A. Tittle, newly come over from the 49ers (as I remember it) on his knees. I became a fan of the GIANTS when Jim Lee Howell was their coach...and Chuckin' Charlie Conerly was their QB.

Oh, my. Because of the football pools, I was always looking for the mediocre teams. I wanted ties...not blow-outs.

@George,
I reminded Eski on facebook that he needs to pick all the way through.
I think his picking of the Eagles was traumatic.

Mahomes getting injured in the first quarter could be huge.

Well, well, well.

I did not enjoy the game last night as much as I thought I would.

The Giants managed to out-class the Eagles in just one category...punt yardage; the Giants punted for lots more yardage than the Eagles.

I think that game could reasonably be listed as an ass-kicking. It was the Giants' ass being kicked...and the Eagles doing the kicking.
