    The most important thing to remember in Joe Judge’s debut

    This is only a first Judgment Day for Joe Judge. Let us not forget that Bill Parcells lost his home opener and Ray Handley won his.

    It is going to take all of them. Every single one. Man-for-man, the Giants do not stack up. Not Monday night in the season opener against the Steelers at empty MetLife Stadium. Probably not the next week in Chicago, or the next week when the 49ers come to town or the next week in Los …

    How die-hard Jets, Giants fans will make most of unusual game days

    MetLife Stadium will be quiet to start this season, and at least for the foreseeable future, and it will not be because Big Blue and Green Green are losing. There will be no “J-E-T-S, Jets, Jets, Jets” chants. “Let’s go Giants” will not be heard. Due to the novel coronavirus, the stands will be empty. …

    We can all agree on this one, right? 2020 has stunk. It’s been brutal. It’s been miserable in any and all ways. Many of us have only recently been able to eat inside a restaurant for the first time since there was snow on the ground. We spend much of our days breathing through masks …
