The official date is actually 01/28/2007 but, still, what a year! Started with a great draft by Jerry Reese, then a rollercoaster ride of a regular season, and finally culminated with just an edge-of-your-seat post season. I’d always said the games in 1991 versus San Fran and Buffalo were the best the back-to-back games for a Giant fan to experience. This 2007 team topped it with back-to-back-to back games in Dallas, Green Bay, and finally versus New England. For all those that read and/or posted in our first year, much thanks.
The best post-Super Bowl news was the fact DC Steve Spagnuolo is staying with New York. This basically was a no-brainer. Obviously he wants to eventually be a head coach, but the Redskins’ job is a one-way ticket to disaster. An over-meddling owner and a team with huge salary cap issues, but most importantly to me, a situation where his primary assistants were already hired. With the Giants, he stays in a spot he’s comfortable and can continue to grow. Throw in being the highest paid coordinator at $2 million/year (kudos to the Giants for that) isn’t all that bad either! There will always be head coaching vacancies each year and certainly ones much more attractive than Washington’s.
