T-Rock's Take on the Giants

That's where the Giants are right now.

All alone in first place in the NFC East.

All alone as the only unbeaten team in the conference.

And, with the Jets taking a bye week, baseball season over in NY (in terms of games being played at least; around here it's never really over), and hockey and hoops not yet in gear, well, the Giants are all alone as the only active major sports team in New York.

(I say major, but as a Cablevision employee I must remind you of the Liberty and Shock playing in the WNBA playoffs tonight.)

That means for the first time since, oh, probably the middle of February, the Giants should be front and center in the minds of NY sports fans.

Game 4 of the post-preseason (which is what we've taken to calling these first six regular season games before the REAL tests begin on Oct. 26) is Sunday against the Seahawks.

The team has its first practice coming off the bye in a few minutes. I'll be back to update you on any changes that have taken place since last we saw the team on the field as well as a headcount to make sure everyone made it back from their break.

In the meantime, Giants fans, enjoy your alone time.
