All of this stuff went down really on Friday, two days before the game. And I realize the team is bunkered and out of reach in a new hotel.
But they have families and they do watch a little TV in killing time.
The last two days was all-spygate, all the time. It was a sickening feeling after so much good.
Did it affect the team?
Nobody is on record as saying so just yet, but I would say it didn’t help the cause.
This is not an excuse because the Patroits have been able to overcome these distractions like puddles on a sidewalk. They would calmly walk around them.
But this is different. This is a charge unlike the Jets charge.
By the time the game started, this topic was no longer a topic. But I am still searching for reasons for the egg they laid, other than the Giants great effort.
