This is a stickup

June
27

Today’s Journal News has our story about the newly instituted Personal Seat Licenses. The main points:

1. Being in the stadium just got a whole lot more expensive.

2. Being on the waiting list just got a whole lot more futile.

3. Consider your seat like New York City real estate, you will pay a premium and resell for a profit.

4. How much of a profit depends on how well the Giants perform. If Jeremy Shockey doesn’t show up for training camp, take it personally. He’s costing you money.

    While these prices may seem high, they are chickenfeed compared to what Jerry Jones is going to charge Dallas fans for seats in his new stadium. “Seat options”—a/k/a PSLs—range from $2,000 to $150,000 per seat, and there are only a few sections in the joint (upper deck, corner, nosebleed) that don’t require such “seat options.” Most of the stadium is way higher than the $2,000 minimum.

    why call this the Giants Journal if you guys don’t report any significant Giants info/news? not trying to be a complete jerk, but it would be awesome if you guys could hire an intern or someone dedicated to surfing the web for breaking news,signings, etc…something to keep us coming back.

    they just signed a pretty interesting Off Lineman, young with starting experience and upside – also baggage. regardless, if you cant “break” the news, please put a little effort into reporting it.

    otherwise, why come to this blog at all?

    I agree this blog blows…i come here maybe once every two weeks, and nothing has been updated. Please just remove this blog.

    Horrendous

    Many of us have inquired on numerous occasions about Ernie’s status and whereabouts, only to receive complete silence in response. As training camp nears, it is safe to assume that if Ernie is not in Albany covering the team, something must be seriously wrong.

    Unfortunately, while the paper fails to acknowledge our concerns about Ernie, it compounds the problem by providing such limited Giants coverage in his absence. This team won the Super Bowl for heaven’s sake—it deserves more coverage than you are providing.
