Free Tickets to Watch Giants Practice in New Stadium

June 4, 2010

Hello Giants fans, I just took a look at the Giants.com homepage and noticed that the team is offering free tickets to watch a mini camp at the New Meadowlands stadium. I will leave all of the information below so if you decide to attend you can get your ticket. The best way to go about this would be to send a friend an email so he can get a free ticket too because they give out only one per email address. So be sure to call up a friend or shoot him an email before they stop running the promotion. What a great oppurtunity to go out and see some of the rookies and veterans on the field together. It will also give fans the opportunity to check out the new stadium, since a lot may not be able to afford season tickets during this down economy. The sign up is really simple and you get a ticket via email almost instantly. Check it out!

I don’t know how long they will be running this promotion so I suggest everyone send out the email as quickly as possible! Maybe we will see you there at the stadium. I’m sure the Big Blue faithful will be out in record numbers to see the G-men on their new field. Enjoy!

The fine print says: You must be over 21 years old to get a ticket, otherwise have a legal guardian get a ticket as well and go with you. Food and drinks are not included with the ticket but they will be on sale.

The date and time of the practice is Tuesday June 15, 2010 @ 2:50 PM EST – 4:30 PM EST (100 minutes)

Here is the link to sign up and get a free ticket to a New York Giants practice at the New Meadowlands stadium.

Easy Eli Manning is Going to Make the 2010 Pro Bowl

June 3, 2010

What do you think about the title of this article? Do you think QB Eli Manning will make the 2010 NFL Pro Bowl roster for the NFC? If you agree, tell us why. If you disagree, tell us why. New York Giants Quarterback Eli Manning (6-4 225 pounds) is a Super Bowl MVP & Super Bowl Champion. Eli Manning has already been to a Pro Bowl in 2008 and has made the playoffs for four of his five years as the leader. We have seen him make incredible comebacks and we’ve seen him win 11 straight on the road. Why people still doubt Manning is beyond me. He improved again in 2009, cracking the 4,000 yard passing yard mark with 4,021 yards. He also threw a very good TD to INT ratio of 27 to 14. It must also be noted that Manning was sacked 30 times in 2009, the most of any year in his career.

He had a solid year in 2009 but the team still finished with a disappointing 8-8 record to close out the season. Injuries can be written in history as the reason why they had a poor season in 2009. 2010 will be a whole other story. Eli Manning has some dangerous receivers and tight ends in his arsenal. It’s clear that the team has the offensive lines future in mind with youngsters William Beatty, Adam Koets and Mitch Petrus in the mix. Protecting Eli will become the theme for next years 2011 NFL draft. I would bet they choose at least two offensive linemen within the first four rounds of the draft.

How would you grade the 29 year old Manning at this point in his career? Personally, I give him an “A” and could not see anyone giving him less then a “B” from everything he has accomplished since being drafted in 2004 in the first round. The crazy trade with San Diego during the 2004 NFL Draft to get him. Ernie Accorsi doing his thing and making things happen. Eli Manning is ready to take things to the next level and I expect him to do so with the arsenal of talented wide receivers he is throwing to. Steve Smith, Hakeem Nicks, Mario Manningham, Ramses Barden, Kevin Boss, Travis Beckum, Derek Hagan and Sinorice Moss are a lot to deal with. Eli Manning is going to go on a three or four year tear beginning this season. He will become the Derek Jeter of New York football by the end of his career. This includes at least one more Super Bowl ring either this year or next year. Next year makes the most sense logically given the team needs some time to mesh with each other. They had some things to work out but I’m confident Eli will lead this team to the next level.

My official prediction for QB Eli Manning during the 2010 NFL regular season is: 4,347 passing yards and 36 TD’s 18 INT’s.

Eli Manning’s official career numbers are: 18,644 passing yards, 125 TD’s 88 INT’s.

nygreporter.com Supports the Wounded Warrior Project

June 1, 2010

Hello Giants Fans, after attending the local Memorial Day parade yesterday and the ceremony honoring fallen American soldiers, I was inspired to look deeper into the Wounded Warrior project. The NYG Reporter supports several charities and will write an article from time to time to gain exposure for them. I cannot think of a better time to write an article on a very important charity which is the Wounded Warrior project.

The Wounded Warrior project provides injured soldiers with numerous programs and services to help them once they come back home. These men and women have made unimaginable sacrifices for our country and deserve to be provided with opportunities when they come home. Let’s be clear, these soldiers are not looking for a handout but an opportunity. There are many ways you can help the project (check out the link below, to go to the official website and see how you can help) but the easiest way may be to simply give a donation. You can also give them a call if you prefer at 877-TEAM-WWP or 904-296-7350. There are so many different charities in the world today and I’m sure that each has a special place in someone’s heart. I hope that this article will open some eyes to a great group that are doing the right thing for the men and women of our military.
