OT: 2026 NY Giants Off Season Thread

[MADHAT1]

I’m very surprised by the meltdown some people are having over Dart introducing 45/47. Very strange.

What's happening is politics is infecting everything .
Now players like Dart are being criticized for what some consider a political move , others might feel he has every right to support anyone he wishes.

The fact is he does have the right to support anyone he wants to just like other athletes have the right to speak out against Trump and not have spurts fans get upset at them.
The only thing us fans should be bitching/praising is their play not their politics unless they run for office.
I'm not a Giant fan, stepped during Andy Robustelli's tenure as GM.
But that was because how the Giants sucked and have left the NYC area, not because of anyone on the team, owner to ground keeper's politics.

I got enough positions to dislike, no reason to add football . basketball or baseball players just because they don't have the same political agenda as me.
Those that do, I suggest get a life away from the political scenery and enjoy your favorite sports teams and players.

I supported Colin Kaepernik , especially after I found out he consulted with with Nate Boyer, a former Green Beret and NFL player, before taking the action that cause many to hate him because of the way he stood up for what he believed .
So I'll support Jason's right to be aligned with a politician I have little use for and not hate him or the team he plays for because of it.
But I reserve the right to dislike the Dallas Cowboys because of Jerry Jones, not for political reasons but because I think he's an ******* by nature

I got to say, you have got to be the first and only person or family I know or ever heard of who choose their teams to root for by the starting quarterback's political affiliation? Democrat, yay we're going to the Superbowl, Republican, I hope they burn in hell. I've heard colors, mascots, birthplace all types of weird sh*t, but never this.

Have seen so much nonsense today from the folks who purportedly belong to the party of tolerance and inclusion, being intolerant and excluding those that don't have the same opinion as they do.

LT and Otis Armstrong were on stage for Trump at his NJ rally and they had fun.

LT, Springsteen, Kid Rock, Bruce Jenner, Bon Jovi, Lebron - I dont care too much about their politics as long as they aren't pushing violence.

goes for both parties, might even include every party involved in politics.
The hate is strong and those with opposite views tend to claim the other is the hater.
When Reagan was president "Tip" O'Neill was his main adversary, but outside of politics they were friends that arged about Reagan's Cubbies and Tip's Red Sox while enjoying their friendship .
Today even the rank and file have a hard time accepting the other side of fence as human and claim all the garbage starts there..

You've actually got it a little wrong. I don't choose a team by the player's political position. About 65 years ago, when I was a young kid I started rooting for teams.... the local teams. And there were only four of them at the time. The Yankees, the Knicks, the Giants, and the Rangers. And, of course, the college team right up the road from where I lived in South River...Rutgers. I've never dumped any of them for any reason.
But, these are unique times and the current evil is so uniquely bad that it may cause me to change something after all these years. Cheetolini and what he is doing to this country is THAT bad. IMO.
And my opinion of those that support him is just about as low.

Thanks, but it matters to me if my team's quarterback is an a**hole. I don't really root for a head coach. Besides, I know what most of them are, so my expectations for the current one are low.
And btw I must have married well ( yeah, I already knew that) 'cause my wife stopped being a Jets fan when they gave the quarterback job to that a**hole Rodgers. She's back now that he moved elsewhere.

grow a set

do you know that more than half players and coaches have one political view you disagree with..who cares. he introduced the president and you are sad

 

[Caliknight]

Giants finally have a real leader.

Was referring to the so called party of inclusion and tolerance. That was the point. Irony is ironic.

No one would mistake the other party as one of inclusion or tolerance. They have a completely diferent set of problems and hypocrisy.

Wait until she finds out who the Jets owner supports

Can you elaborate on this evil you speak of?

Can you elaborate on this evil you speak of?

No. I can't.
You must not have read this entire thread. In an earlier post I explained why I must limit what I say about said evil. I have learned the hard way that getting into it here will only result in the thread being locked or being deleted or me being banned from this site. So I've learned to try extra hard to be careful about what I post here.
Besides, if you don't know what I'm referring to as evil then I don't think there's much hope for you. Where you been ?
