Columnist Sam Borden writes that trading TE Jeremy Shockey was the right move. You can read the story here. Here is a taste:
“There was a time when it was thought that Shockey might end up being one of the great Giants, one of those Giants. He was a big-time player in the biggest city, a star among stars. Lately, though, it just felt like he was a train with one wheel loose, careening toward goodbye.”
And Alex Myers talked to local fans about what they thought about the move. This quote sums up those sentiments:
“I’m happy. I never liked him anyhow,” Garnerville’s Tim Hekl said. “He wasn’t happy anyway, so I think it’s better for the team.”
The above AP photo shows Shockey’s last moments as an active member of the Giants.

right move my ass
As soon as the Giants won the Supe he was a goner, Reese saw that the team won without Shockey and that they didn’t need him.
He didn’t want to be a member of the New York Giants. I don’t want to watch a guy who doesn’t want to play for the team I love.
Good riddance.
