I usually stay away from stuff like this, but considering this week's back-and-forth with Dallas Cowboys' fans, this is too good to pass up.
It seems we know for sure now who wears the pants in the Jessica Simpson-Tony Romo relationship.
Here's the incriminating evidence from Golf.com.
Tony Romo, a native of Burlington, Wis., was home visiting family and decided to join his father, ...

The vote to determine whether or not we should grant Tiki Barber an automatic spot on our Big Blue View All-Time Giants Team is split almost 50-50. With that in mind, I can't just give him a spot. So, Tiki will have to rely on Big Blue View Nation to vote him in.
Here are your nominees for the two running back slots.
Tiki Barber -- We all know the numbers. He's the Giants all-time ...

In the closest, most interesting vote we have had for any of the positions on our Big Blue View All-Time Giants Team, Homer Jones has earned the second wide receiver slot, besting Plaxico Burress by one vote. Yes, one vote.
The final tally? Jones 40, Burress 39. Del Shofner and Joe Morrison each got 14 votes, and Kyle Rote 12.
I understood the support for Burress, since ...

Appearing as a guest co-host on ESPN's 'Mike
and Mike in the Morning' today, Osi Umenyiora of
the New York Giants compared himself to another New York superstar. "I'm Alex Rodriguez. All the talent, but no love," is Osi' take. Oh, really? Do Giants fans not love Osi. I'm not really sure where that feeling comes from.
Pete Prisco of CBS Sportsline is out with his annual list of the players he considers to be the top 50 in the NFL .
There is only one Giant on Prisco's list -- Osi Umenyiora at No. 42.
I really intended to rip Prisco for having only one member of the DEFENDING SUPER BOWL champions on his list. The more I look at it, though, I find myself unable to get really worked up about the ...

NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell called rookie contracts "ridiculous" the other day, and I couldn't agree with him more.
"There's something wrong about the system," Goodell said Friday. "The money should go to people who perform."
Goodell was reacting largely to the $57.75 million contract No. 1 pick Jake Long , an offensive tackle from Michigan, signed with the Miami Dolphins.

Here's a look at some of the worst
players -- and the worst coach -- the New
York Giants have had in the last 40-50 years. Check the list and see who you would add or subtract.
By popular demand (an overwhelming 52-3 vote) we are conceding a spot on our All-Time Team to Amani Toomer .
So, now we start the vote over again for the second wide receiver on the team.
Vote in the poll for the receiver who will join Toomer.

This discussion has been brought up before in other forums, but I'm not sure if it's hit here at BBV. There's obviously a little bad blood and hurt feelings between some Giants fans and players regarding Tiki Barber, but looking back at his career I think it's valid question to wonder whether Tiki Barber is worthy of the Pro Football Hall of Fame. This might even seem like a ...

Should we concede Amani Toomer a spot on our All-Time Team (he is cruising in the poll) and re-vote the 2nd slot?
If you guys want to do that, I will put up a new wide receiver poll this weekend without Toomer in it?

Wide receiver is next up as we close in on completing our Big Blue View All-Time Giants Team.
This should be an interesting vote, as we have well-known players from a variety of eras to choose from. The top two vote-getters will be named to the team.
So, here are your nominees.
Amani Toomer -- Never thought of as a superstar, or a game-changing receiver, but he is -- statistically ...

As I suspected, Bill Parcells was the overwhelming choice of Big Blue View Nation to coach our All-Time Team.
Parcells received 82 of the 118 votes (69 percent). Steve Owen finished a distant second with 17 votes and Tom Coughlin earned 14.
We will move on to wide receiver now, a vote that I think will be very, very interesting. Your wide receiver choices and poll will be out shortly ...

By now you have probably read Michael Strahan's assertion that the Giants need to part ways with Jeremy Shockey .
"It’s a situation where he doesn’t want to be here; he doesn’t want to play here. That’s obvious with everything that’s going on. I don’t think you really gain much by keeping a guy around, regardless of how well he plays for you, ...

Good Morning Campers , here are some stories off the wire on this steamy day in South Florida.

Well, that's one problem solved.
The Giants have reportedly reached a six-year contract extension with guard Chris Snee .
He is, of course, best known for being coach Tom Coughlin's son-in-law. Snee, though, is the Giants best lineman. He's only 26 and is a guy who could visit the Pro Bowl a few times before this new contract is over.
Getting the Snee deal done quickly was a good ...

Here are a few items making the rounds today, Day 1 of the post- Jared Lorenzen era for the New York Giants.
Plaxico Burress has penned a book "Giants: The Road to the Super Bowl." Gee, how original. In it, Burress apparently details just how badly hurt he was from falling in the shower days before the Super Bowl, and says he has never been happy with his 6-year, $26 million ...
