Yea, thank God that's over ! Maybe Belicheck will want to come back to where it all began ! Sort of like a " can't beat em join em " reunion ! So currently the Giants are picking 2nd in the next draft right after The Browns . So with prime time games against the Cowboys, Eagles , Cards and Skins what are the chances the Giants come out with new found energy and win and blow their draft spot ?

They're experts at tanking, so don't' worry.
A rookie draftee won't solve their problems.

Culture of losing is prevalent in NY. :sad:

You're point that the Giants are right on the bottom with other losing systems like Green Bay is understood. Pittsburg still rules.

Pittsburgh won the majority of their SBs during the NFL slavery period, as did the Niners.

Hard to truly compare the two eras.

The NY culture of losing involves more than the giants.
NY doesn't know how to win anything anymore.

The Pack has more titles than Pisburp.
Their road back to stardom is easy.

Most of those also came during the "slave" era in MLB.

Well, if we're counting, from the time I remember watching sports (about 7 years old) I've seen 1 Jets, 2 Knicks, 1 Rangers, 4 Islanders, 3 Devils, 4 Giants, 2 Mets and 10 Yankees Championships. Yankees won 5 more in my lifetime but I don't really remember any of those.
