Jeter's thoughts on Brodeur

[Hammerojustice]

I agree with Jeter... "I hope he gets to finish exactly how he wants to finish. If he wants to come back (to New Jersey) then I hope he gets that opportunity."

That being said, what else does he need to prove? He already has 688 wins (137 more than next in line - Patrick Roy & 801 wins if you include playoffs), most regular season shutouts with 121 ahead of #2 Terry Sawchuck who is 21 back and died just after his 21st season in 1970, most post season shutouts with 24 (1 ahead of Roy), most playoff shutouts in 1 season with 7, most wins in a season with 48, most games and minutes played, most 20-or-more win seasons, most consecutive 20-or-more win seasons, most 30-or-more win seasons, most consecutive 30-or-more win seasons, most 40-or-more win seasons, most consecutive 40-or-more win seasons, and was the youngest goaltender to reach each the 300, 400, 500, and 600 win plateaus... (only one with 600 or more), most goals by a goaltender in both regular season and (tied) post season with 2 and 1 respectively… What else is left?

[Messiah717]

If he wants to return he needs to accept being the backup.

 

[Rick2583]

Okay, so don't tell me.

...how can I be a chee-tos eating pig if I never got my f'n chee-tos?...you never paid off.

They should come out with Meat-tos. Beef flavored chee-tos. That reminds me of one of the baseball video games from the late 90s. They had fake advertisements over the public address system. One was for something called chork. Not quite chicken and not quite pork. Chork.

If you ever get your hands on that Chork just give it to Ron, He's like Mikey, he'll eat anything.

I agree... but I don't think that will be the case with NJ...

The Jets have Vick but I think the Giants are looking for a back up.

you really are an asshole sometimes, you know that?

The Giants signed Josh Freeman as a backup.

In my favorite Vinny Barbarino.....WHAT?..........Where?...........When?

Okay Steve, I'll stop busting chops.

 

[Rick2583]

Yeah I think it was between him & Ryan. Hopefully Eli can get out the funk he was in last season & start showing a little more of his brother.

Showing my age (or lack thereof) but, I had to look up who Vinny Barbarino was... I had no clue...

This signing, to me, shows they have no faith in "the steal of the draft" Nassib... but with all the improvements the Giants made to their OL with more to come, he should be better...
