Random Thoughts on the Giants Schedule 2.0

In Version 1.0 I analyzed the Giants 2008 Preseason and Regular Season schedule up until their Week #4 Bye. 

I understand that everyone is a critic, but this blog is for Giants fans and I would really appreciate if people whom have never blogged before would not read the below.  Seriously.  Just move on.  Don't tell me how to prepare prime rib if you've never done so yourself.  Save your time and comments as they will just be deleted.

It Came Out of Leftfield: Strange Stories in Sports-Dykstra

When Jim Cramer of "Cramer's Mad Money" fame needs financial advice, he turns to Nails...Lenny Dysktra that is.  The former Met/Phillie (how's that even possible?) has managed to make more money out of baseball than he ever did in his heyday.  "Dude," whom has also consulted Warren Buffet, has been able to amass a fortune out of baseball by first starting a successful chain of car washes in SoCal.  Dude spared no expense for his customers and constructed his car washes with the finest materials/amenities possible...all while over-seeing the entire building process.

My Mock Draft 2.0

If your addicted to Mock Drafts like I am, I hope you enjoy the second version of mine.  I had more minutes to spare this time around and as a result, I dropped my notes as well.

Random Thoughts on the Giants Schedule 1.0

After coming back from training camp in Albany, the Giants will have a fairly tough pre-season schedule to get ready for what I perceive to be a very manageable regular season.  Here is the first part of the Giants 2008 sked along with my notes on both. 

Now it's time for my Willy Wonka spiel.  "Before we enter the new season, let us be quick to remember the words of all those that continuously picked against the Giants and were proven wrong.  Is everybody in?  The ceremony is going to begin."

It Came Out of Leftfield: Strange Stories in Sports-Brodeur

In 2003, superstar Devils goalie Martin Brodeur was divorced by his wife.  Because she was suing for financial and child support, the events of those proceedings became public. 

Melanie Dubois confronted the goalie about whether or not he had been unfaithful to her with her sister.Brodeur then confessed to this deed.  As a result, he made many players in the NHL and human beings in general scratch their incredulous heads.
