In the mix for the Giants punt returner job so far are the incumbent, R.W McQuarters, WR Michael Jennings, WR Sinorice Moss, WR & KR Dominik Hixon, and RB Ahmad Bradshaw.
McQuaters is experienced and offers good ball security, which is the number one priority. Saved his best for last in our Championship Season, but is a little long in the tooth.

The Giants seeming unwillingness to enhance the existing deals of our controversial tight end and our mercurial number one receiver sheds light on the team's philosophy regarding positional importance. Take care of the linemen. Receivers and tight ends can come and go -- they are both wonderful players -- each offers unique talent for their position, but the position itself is the question. You know Coach Coughlin wants to run the ball. Does extending and enriching an injury-prone tight end like Shockey make financial sense when Boss and Michaels can do the same job for half the pay? What about Burress's knees and ankles and the general wear and tear of 9 seasons? He played great in that cold weather championship game in Green Bay, you've got to give him that. Both Shockey and Burress have nice size -- a luxury for a QB's vision, especially when he's just starting to adjust to the speed of the NFL game...but Eli's adjusted now so unless Shockey and Burress learn to stay healthy, well, we've see the Jerry Reese method of operation regarding oft-injured veterans.

Jeremy Shockey may be the starting TE for the World Champs, as Jerry Reese proclaims, but he did NOT attend last night's handing out of the bling -- the Super Bowl Championship rings -- especia

Dear Coach Coughlin,
Thanks first for all of your many unseen kindnesses, especially the time you spend without fanfare, visiting hospitals, cancer wards, and for the financial support the Jay fund provides for those in need. You're a man's man, Coach Coughlin, for standing up against this horrible disease. Now, onto the business of football. Here are a few requests listed in order of importance for our World Champion Coach Tom Coughlin to consider:

sed a way to insert Ahmad Bradshaw into the running back rotation for some very productive carries. Jeremy Shockey goes out, enter Kevin Boss who is sure-handed, maybe not as dynamic a receiver, but is a better blocking tight end, which serves their run game.
