08:24 AM ET 01.28 | The veterans get their own rooms. The younger players double up. Either way, when the Giants hit Indy on Monday, the men in blue have been ordered to be in bed every night at their downtown hotel by midnight, which by Tom Coughlin time means 11:55 p.m. Coughlin wouldn't divulge that curfew time Friday, but one of his players spoke anonymously on behalf of the hour hand. Next week's bed checks are a safeguard against temptation, and history. There are 53 roster players, plus more on the practice team and injured reserve. That's a lot of potential naughtiness.

Giants' players seem pretty self-motivated. This doesn't seem like a team with a bunch of undisciplined party boys. They take their lead from their coach. Besides, how naughty can you get in Indianapolis, anayway?

My sentiments exactly. Maybe there's something going on in Indy that the rest of us aren't aware of! If the Giants can remain focused in NY/NJ, I can't see Indianapolis being much of a problem for them.

Maybe he's afraid they will sneak out with the locals and go cow tipping

No, but there is a 24/7 bowling alley that is pretty popular.

Damn it, man. You're knocking my home state. There is a hell of a lot more to do in Indy than cow tipping. For example, they could go to . . . Wait for a minute. . . I'm thinking. . . Perhaps they could. . . go snipe hunting?

I could see where that would be dazzling for a group of New York guys

Snipe hunting? Isn't that kind of dangerous? I mean those guys can shoot a really long way

I presume strip clubs are in abundance in Indy.

They only play the Super Bowl in cities with strip clubs.



So I am told...
