    Dart is having an amazing debut for NY. I was not expecting us to even compete against the Chargers today.

    Giants won a game!


    This is as improbable as the USA winning today…

    Thought I was going to miss my flight home for 20 nerve shredding minutes. Made it to the gate with 20 mins to spare in the end. :emoticon-0141-whew:

    The win has come at a very heavy price - Malik Nabers has torn his ACL. That's just terrible news for him, the Giants and the NFL as he's an incredible talent.

    Yeah, Giants fans are bemoaning their astroturf pitch, which they believe is behind all the injuries they pick up. They are annoyed they are getting grass for the World Cup and it will then be replaced by the turf again.

    So I watched the game in full last night. Perhaps needn't had bothered. Good thing with not watching it live is being able to fast forward all of the bad bits...

    On the bright side my Tottenham tickets came today yay

    Of course with how ****ty 2025 has been, I no doubt will be witnessing my first ever Vikings loss. Sorry tom.

    Browns will be starting rookie QB Dillon Gabriel against the Vikings in London.

    Completely forgot that I’m out this afternoon so will have to watch the game later. I think the Browns win, but can see it being close. Garrett will have a field day and that will be the difference

    Yeah but their offence is awful. As long as we don't turn the ball over I think we win. Even if it means kicking field goals.

    At spurs now, it's a bit windy still after storm Amy, will be interesting to see if it affects the kickers

    What a throw by Wentz for the Addison TD.

    Phew. Needed that win. Any win with the amount of players we have out is a good win. Brilliant last drive by Wentz. Now go into a bye week to try and get a bit healthier.

    Got home to see the last half of the 4th quarter. Was close as I thought but got the winner wrong.

    3-2 going into the bye, probably a game back on what they likely will need to get playoffs, especially given the run after the bye. These first 5 were the easiest run in the schedule. This season should be all about trying to figure out if McCarthy is the guy going forward, right now it’s hard to make an argument he is considering his durability
