Just Why Did that Game Suck So Bad?

Newark Star-Ledger reporter Mike Garafolo has a strong theory on why the Skins-Giants game was so awful last night:

I was thinking along the same lines as many people after last night’s game: what a sloppy second half that needs to be cleaned up.

But when I got home and really cooled down for the first time after running around pretty much all day, I had another thought: It was way too freakin’ hot yesterday. And I can only imagine how those guys felt, playing their first full game at regular-season speed in that kind of weather. So if I seemed to have been a bit critical of what was a division win at home to start the season (never a bad thing), I take some of that back after looking at that second half with a slightly different perspective. As I see it now, both sides were simply gassed and just trying to survive.

    That may have accounted for the Giants crappy play, but I fear the weather had nothing to do with the sh*t show put on by my beloved ‘Skins….it’s going to be a long, long season

    i have to agree with adams morgan…dan schneider should be ashamed of charging for tickets with the sh.t product he and his amatuer, thumb sucking, brown nosing excuse for a VP of football operations have created.

    Wow! We the skins suck at football and the owner is and will always be in over his head. I wish we could fire the owner…but alas…we are stuck with this guy.
