All signs point to a Giants win

From the Giants' three-game losing streak, to their bickering with each other and with the media, to Tony Romo's brilliant run as the Cowboys' starter, this all adds up to as big a lock as there is in the NFL: The Cowboys will clobber the Giants on Sunday at Giants Stadium. Or so it would seem. The Giants can't get out of their own way on the field, they're feuding with each other and with the media in the wake of Michael Strahan's choice of words about Plaxico Burress, and Dallas has won three out of its last four to take a one-game lead over the Giants in the NFC East. So how else are you supposed to figure Sunday's huge divisional game? Here's how else you're supposed to figure it: The Giants will win.

In fact, I'm so convinced that the NFL's reverse logic - sort of like George Costanza's theory that doing everything opposite is the best on "Seinfeld" - will work in the Giants' favor, that I'm making them my best bet this weekend. I've seen too many of these supposed can't-miss situations, where one team is coming in red hot and the other is all screwed up both on and off the field, to fall into the trap that this game creates.

Only an idiot would think that "all signs" points to a Giants win. Only a complete imbecile with the intellect of a flea.

With that said, they got a shot.

They may be scripted to win this week. The National Fixed League could have worked this out already.

If every division had a team that was 4 games ahead, wouldn't that hurt ratings? Ask the Cardnials and Raiders about attendance.

But, if you have conflict then you have a storyline. This once powerhouse, now down for the count New York team takes on this now high flying Texas team. It's called ratings.

How pissed were you if you payed 50.00 to watch a Tyson fight in the 90s only to have it end in 43 sec into the first round?

Ever see "Wag the Dog?"

Crap.....what if I'm right?
