No Giants shock-er - NY Post

THE 2008 Giants draft list contains seven names and no one can be sure if it's a class to remember or forget. Still, it is not too soon to already stamp the Giants as big winners after this weekend's talent grab-bag simply because they did not trade away Jeremy Shockey.

The player whose jersey you have gets traded ...

(POLL) what course of action do you take or whose jersey do you go get now ? I may end up in this situation with my Shockey.

Now that the Cowboys have Pac-man on the team, what does everyone predict will change on the team?

Rumor Mill

According to the New York Daily News, Michael Strahan is still undecided about retirement, but he seems a bit more pessimistic about the chances of his returning to Big Blue. He said that there are days where he wants to play and days he doesn't. Right now, he said that there seems to be more days where he doesn't want to play. (updated: 05/05/2008)
