As my one reader knows I had a bet on the DU v. CU game for a chinese buffet dinner. I lost. I wish I could have made it to the game or at least watched it online, but alas I was on my way from Toronto to Buffalo so I couldn't do either. According to AK Cornell didn't play great and according to my Drexel peeps our play averaged to mediocre. It sounds like we were pretty awful in the first half and came out gunning in the second, but had already dug ourselves into too much of a hole to recover from. It would be nice to play Cornell again and I think in a 10 game series it would probably be pretty even.
On to the Giants: I don't see any reason to keep playing Eli the rest of the season. With the Plantar Fascitis in one foot and a stress reaction in the other the Giants are asking for trouble. I also think that Brandon Jacobs should go under some sort of full medical evaluation. He has yet to be on his game this season, and with how good the passing game was earlier in the year it doesn't seem like it's just defenses keying on him. I wouldn't be surpised if they announce that he has a leg injury at the end of the season. Put in Carr, rest anyone who is at risk of aggravating an injury, test some of the rookies, and start planning for next year. I don't advocate giving up on a season and if Eli wasn't hurt I wouldn't say pull him just in case but given the scenario, I don't see why he should still be playing.
At least this season provided two highlights: beating the Cowboys in their stadium grand opening, and beating AK's Falcons and the Jammed Toe Experience.
