T-Rock's Take on the Giants

There were new T-shirts in all the lockers at Giants Stadium today proclaiming “It’s a whole new season.” But before they can put those on, there’s a little business to take care of from last season. Namely, a visit to the White House to meet the President.

For some players, it’s an experience they’re looking forward to. Sinorice Moss said he can’t wait to one day tell his kids about the experience. Others have a history with the Prez. Lawrence Tynes has met him twice, both times, oddly, when Bush visited a Kansas City training camp in River Falls, Wisc. (Maybe Bush heard "Hail to the Chief" so much he finally wanted to meet them?)

And word is that the first professional paycheck ever earned by Kay-Jay Harris was signed by George W. Bush (when Bush owned the Rangers and Harris was drafted out of high school by the organization).

Still, some people let politics creep into their experience a little. Asked if he was excited about meeting the President, Justin Tuck replied: “I’m going to see the White House.”
