Exactly. Where is the fukking lie? Starting that “****** qb” got the Giants fanbase all in their bigoted feelings. And of course the new FO was going to listen.
Before Geno, the Giants were the only NFL team to have never started a black QB :scust:

Martin Briscoe started for the Broncos in '68...it took the Giants 49 years :scust:

Yahoo is now part of Oath

I agree with you...its disingenuous to say race doesn't play a major role here - both in how Giants fans reacted to benching Eli (and then putting him back in), and picking Jones at #6 this year.

“All my years being in the league, I never received more emotional mail from people than I did about that issue,” says Giants co-owner John Mara, who for 24 years has worked for the team his family founded. “If any of your players ever do that, we are never coming to another Giants game. It wasn’t one or two letters. It was a lot. It’s an emotional, emotional issue for a lot of people, moreso than any other issue I’ve run into.” - John Mara on Giants signing Kaep

:mjpls:

I wonder how many letters came from Little Ferry?


:ohhh:

Yo my cousins and I have been having a running convo on this EXACT topic for the past few years and it started with this quote. That coupled w/ the Eli benching, I'm convinced they would rather listen to Paulie from Bayonne over Rahmel from Baisley. They act like only cops, firefighters and their sympathizers are Giants fans.

I havent watched the past 2 years but I listen to sports talk (thank the maker I'm not in NY and have to put up with local radio)and see msg boards and theres a stark divide in the fan base way way too much :mjpls:

I knew Francesa lost it when during the world baseball classic a caller asked about the final between USA and Puerto Rico. Mike lost it and went on a rant about how they're the "same people" and a final between the same people is stupid. Mike was dumb ignorant that day. Way out of touch with reality.

Regarding the Giants, I saw that video of their GM talking about the pick and it just came off as
full
No real reason behind it.

Regarding Jets fans, once we think you can’t win a Super Bowl for us, we’re done with you. We woulda benched Mark for Tebow just to never see you again. For a while, Giants fans felt the same way because y’all were ready to see if Ryan Nassib was the guy or Davis Webb, but once Geno started, Giants fans made it their mission to see to it that the Giants rebuild around Eli again just so they can send him off right, to the point where it’s never Eli’s fault for anything goes wrong. The 180 fans had on Eli once MacAdoo decided to try someone else at QB was crazy.
You mean how y'all were done with Ryan Fitzpatrick once Geno recovered from his broken jaw?:ohhh:No, if I remember correctly, your fan base blamed Geno for being assaulted and proceeded to cheer on the journeyman white QB who all of you know is fool's gold because he proved it playing on a team in your division and being trash once he got paid. Jets fans shytted on Geno from the start. The blatant fact he didn't have any weapons and was on a team that wasn't constructed to compete didn't matter. He gets punched by a teammate in an offseason where all reports in camp were that he looked really good and y'all finally put some talent around him and you proceeded to go with the old white guy that had proven by then that he's not winning any team a Super Bowl. After he led you no where you proceeded to double down and start him the next season instead of giving Geno, a guy you used a high draft pick on, a genuine chance to prove if he could be the answer. Jets fans are the last fanbase I'm about to listen to try to call another fanbase racist:mjlol:Y'all couldn't be happier when you drafted your white savior last year, to the point you tried shytting on the Giants for drafting the clearly superior talent. The Daniel Jones pick was awful. Race played a factor. A large segment of the Giants fandom have inherent racist mindsets. I don't need a fanbase that has a large segment of people with racist mindsets telling me that.:camby:

i'm amazed at these type of ppl who don't watch college football all year, then they see a few highlights of a dude throwing TD passes, which is what HIGHLIGHTS are, then they hear about his coaching connection to the Mannings and suddenly = GREAT PICK.

his Rivals recruiting page.

https://n.rivals.com/content/prospects/2015/daniel-jones-22830

zero stars, NO schools interested, he was interested in NC State. Who may have likely turned him down bc they werent interested, which led him to Duke.

If this blows up in their face, the Giants deserve to be set back for a decade.

Draft Haskins, trade for Rosen....something else smarter than what this seems.

Rocco from West Orange you’re on da fan!

Ayyyye Mike, first time loung time!!! I like this Daniel Jones kid!! He as all the looks of REAL QB.

:mjlol:

Haskins may not be the QB Jay Gruden wanted, but it's the QB the team needs, Washington is going to light the Giants up next season.

Oh Jets fans aren’t that much different than Giants fans. The difference is that Jets fans will deal with a Black QB if it meant winning a Super Bowl.

Many Jets fans here cant stand other Jets fans
