Giant Day

I was greatly disappointed last week by the Giants' unexpected and impressive victory. Not because I dislike the Giants, I don't. Rather, because had they lost, talk radio would have been vastly more entertaining last week with talk of firing the coach and the Eli Manning "mistake". Further, had they lost yesterday (in anything other than a blowout), the calls for the coach's scalp would have been toned down since no one expected the Giants to win

However, with the Giants' win yesterday in Dallas, sports radio promises to be even more entertaining. First, it is great to see so-called experts like Mike Francesca revealed as the dopes they really are . Second, it is extremely amusing to hear the messianic telephone calls from fans whose very chiyus is tied to whether or not the Giants win.

(And, as an additional benefit, it's not as mean-spirited of me to get my kicks from other people's suffering)
