Did anybody notice that every time we have a natural disaster, the Giants end up with some advantage - extra home game because the opposition can't play at site of disaster, opposition has to travel to site of the disaster on game day because there are no hotel rooms, etc?

Maybe the Giants should have been forced to play this game in Pittsburgh so resources are not taken from where they are needed around NJ to police Met Life Stadium?

Would you expect the league to do the right thing here? Funny when there were fires in San Diego in 2003 they had no problem moving the game to Tempe and to MNF. Hurricane Katrina damages the Super Dome... nah we can't move it to Houston, Orlando, San Antonio... let's move it to the Meadowlands and let Giant fans in for free.

Steelers.. they can fly in the morning of the game...no big deal. They could have easily moved the game to Philly so the Steelers could find a hotel and still close enough any Giant fans wanting to go to the game could still go. I also don't like the idea of them playing the game 2 minutes from Little Ferry that is still flooded.

This game should not be played a few miles away from disaster areas.

some of you guys have a serious Giants complex. Its a natural disaster the NFL has bigger things to worry about than whether the Giants get benefits from it or not.

If you want to bitch that a game shouldn't be played that close to a disaster site, thats one thing, but acting like the Giants were done a favor by being allowed to play a home game at home is a little bit of a reach don't you think?

^Right but they are violating their own rules by making the Steelers fly in on the day of the game

I don't care about the Giants. It doesn't make a difference for me if they win or lose. My point is this. Lots of people are in distress in the area and they are still allocating some resources towards the game. Christie should have asked NFL to move the game.

It's an hour flight. Not a big deal.

I do agree about the resources statement though. If they are going to cancel the marathon, then perhaps sports could be secondary too. But then again, the Knicks played the other night.

Faggot giants couldn't even beat the Steelers for us. (as if it mattered anyway) Still, the one time I felt obligated to root for the Giants.

Bengals just killed them

Since the disaster the Jets and Giants are 0-3 and been blown out twice.
