I think what my position will be and what I think the team will be ready to accept is the fact that the reason we won was because of team," Coughlin said a day before players reported to the University at Albany. "Team over self was why we won.

Did I hear you say Lawrence Taylor? His drug binges were the stuff of, well, a guy who couldn't say no to a "hit." But Taylor, perhaps, the greatest all-time defensive players of his era, never called Bill Parcells "an ass." At least not publicly. Taylor never flung his helmet when one of his teammates messed up. Taylor never publicly ragged on Parcells. [Jeremy Shockey] is guilty of all that.

EAST RUTHERFORD The Giants' Miami contingent grew by one Saturday as safety Kenny Phillips was drafted in the first round, and Jeremy Shockey was not traded to New Orleans.
Jeremy Shockey is our starting tight end, and really that's the end of the story," general manager Jerry Reese said when asked about the tight end, who reportedly was on the trade market.

The tight end transformation is nearly complete. Only a handful of teams still use the traditional blocking tight end as an integral part of their offense. They have been replaced by the speedy, sure handed lot that can split the middle of the field or turn quickly and get seven yards.
Incredibly, seven tight ends led their teams in receptions in 2004. Tony Gonzalez, Antonio Gates, Alge Crumpler, Jason Witten, Jeremy Shockey, Jeremy Wiggins, and Randy McMichael have helped push tight ends into the mainstream of fantasy football.
