The Cowboys are 0-2 in the playoffs when facing a team that has a player named, "Bradshaw," not good news considering the Giants have running back Ahmad Bradshaw, who ran for 66 yards against Tampa Bay on Sunday. Terry Bradshaw led the Steelers to wins in Super Bowls X and XIII by throwing six touchdown passes in two games. He earned MVP honors in Super Bowl XIII with four touchdown passes in Pittsburgh's 35-31 victory. Ahmad Bradshaw did not get a carry in the Giants' two losses to the Cowboys in the regular season. |

WOW, get a life...

Are you guys serious with this stuff?? Who freakin cares they have a running back named Bradshaw? I don't know how you even compare a multiple superbowl winning quarterback to a back up running back and try to say the boys will be jinxed based on a common last name.
We're really stretching for material here guys!

Why don't you also induct him into HOF, to make the comparison more valid.

I know there's not much to report on that hasn't already been beaten to death, but jeez how desperate are you for content to post something so stupid?

Ok, if you must report on the guy, here's the facts:
That's one of the advantages of being a fantasy football owner. You know about guys like Bradshaw once Brandon Jacobs and Derrick Ward are hurt late in the season. He had one big game, (17 carries for 151 and a TD), in Week 16 versus the Bills. (More than half of that was on one 88 yard run...) Yesterday he had 17 carries for 66 yards and one catch for nine yards. He actually got four more carries than Brandon Jacobs, but I can't say he worries me a great deal. He's a great change of pace back, but little more...

Really? Is this what you're writing on? Why not make use of your time better and write on Eli/Plax/Jacobs in big games. Or Coughlin's big game decisions. A guy's name means NOTHING in a game. Why not do a spot on the Cowboys vs Smith. Lots of Smiths!

Thats not entirely wrong but the bradshaw you're talking about was a QB. So they are 0-2 when the other QB is a bradshaw. This one on Sunday don't really count now does he?

WOW! Now I have seen it all. It always seems that the media tries to beef up the hype by reaching for anything. This is so news worthy - NOT! Make no mistake Dallas did much better by getting the Giants than Tampa. Regardless of who won the game yesterday. Garcia has the X-factor. I would rather see Eli than Garcia during a playoff run any day. Eli said it best yesterday. They know Dallas and Dallas knows this team and because Dallas matches up well against them, Dallas will win. Let the media continue to pump the G-men. It will only make Dallas more determined. Dallas - 35 Giants-21. The game I'm looking at is Jax and NE. I think Jax can beat them and I think Indy can beat Jax. Dallas will be in the big dance and will play Indy. Dallas will win it all.

Can I have 15 seconds of my life back, please?

The Giants are 0-2 when Flozell Adams has at least one false start in a ball game.
Wow, Archer, if this is the best pre-game chatter you can come up with thats pretty bad.
Posted by larry giusti @ 1:02 PM Mon, Jan 07, 2008
Yeah, you MEDIOTS. That's right, you heard me, you're all MEDIOTS. Y'all watch out, I've been converted. I'm a cheerleader now also. Giants, Packers, Patriots, it don't matter, bring 'em on, we can beat 'em all!!! We're 13-3, by God!!! Nobody can touch us!!! We're winning the Super Bowl, Baby!!! Arizona bound!!! Look at me! I'm the Cowboys #1 fan!!! I'm a bona-fide "Romosexual"!!! I believe Oral Roberts is perfectly acceptable between two consenting adults!! I'm a cheerleader!!! I can use two syllable words!!! Gooooooooooooooooo Cowboys!!!

What's next? Numerology?

Here's another interesting stat, I have never been intercepted in an NFL game, playoff or regular season, of course I have never played in the NFL but will this affect the cowboys running attack on Sunday? I am not sure, be back later with more research.

Kennedy's driver was named "Bradshaw" while a man named "Bradshaw" tried to buy a ticket to Ford's theater the night Lincoln was shot (unfortunately his credit card was maxed out). Oh yeah--GO COWBOYS!!!

Larry, you better watch out or you'll be taking over the top spot for comedy from Rams Fan.
That was hilarious!
GO COWBOYS!!!
Posted by Jerry @ 2:47 PM Mon, Jan 07, 2008
wow thats good reporting, did you know the Giants are 0-3 when the STARTING QB for the Cowboys is named Romo????
Posted by Todd Archer @ 9:38 PM Mon, Jan 07, 2008
Glad to see the fans aren't too uptight about this game. It's called sarcasm people. Lighten up just a little.
Sorry it slipped by so many people. Back to the football talk. My bad.
