Game Thread: Chargers at Giants, 1st Half

San Diego Chargers at New York Giants, Nov 8, 2009 1:15 PM PST


It's finally here!  The matchup of the century!  A game made up of 50+ participants that will determine which quarterback is undeniably better than the other!

Alright, enough mocking.  I've been looking forward to this game for a long time.  This is my first time seeing the Chargers live since I moved away from San Diego 3 years ago.  BFTB will be heavily represented and will be mingling with the "Big Apple Bolt Backers" and their blowout tailgate.

There will be plenty of food, booze and ridiculous pictures along the way.  To get things started right, I'm hungover from last night.  This isn't going to be pretty.  Also, I talked to a family member who is a Giants fan yesterday and his advice was "I highly recommend you go in with neutral colors."  Unfortunately, I would probably get ten times more hell from Chargers fans for doing that that I will Giants fans for sporting my power-blue #17.

At least until I get too drunk to type on a virtual keyboard, you can follow me and this madness here.

As per usual when I'm not around, Richard is in charge.  So I expect you to be on your best behavior.

Go Bolts.

sorry, i know

this is for our game, but still……

by $#%@ eli and his daddy on Nov 8, 2009 12:40 PM PST reply actions   0 recs

So is it “powder blues”, when it’s the throwbacks and “power blues” when it’s throwback look-a-likes?

by tonoxtono on Nov 8, 2009 12:43 PM PST reply actions   0 recs

I guess

I was just wondering because I’ve heard them be called “powder blues” and “power blues” and just wondering which one it’s supposed to be. Or if it matters at all.

chambers making an impact in KC

2 catches, 65 yds and 1 td so far… good luck C C

Nice of him to turn up for a change

Pity he couldn’t do it on this team

by gman87 on Nov 8, 2009 1:04 PM PST up reply actions   0 recs

On this team

he was the 3rd or 4th best wide receiver.

We're boned.

Giants marched down the field

and botched a field goal. Chargers got one first down and then stalled.

We're boned.

by Zach (maestro876) on Nov 8, 2009 1:33 PM PST up reply actions   0 recs

Delay of game on the Giants.

Then Eli throws incomplete pass. 4th down.

We're boned.

Nice!

Gotta get the sack there.

We're boned.

by Zach (maestro876) on Nov 8, 2009 1:35 PM PST reply actions   0 recs

NICE! False starts... Delays....

This is what happens to offenses who play in front of hostile crowds.

by Dex on Nov 8, 2009 1:36 PM PST reply actions   0 recs

GREAT field position.

Gotta cash this in here.

We're boned.

by Zach (maestro876) on Nov 8, 2009 1:37 PM PST reply actions   0 recs

Is there any team in the league

that Bill Parcells hasn’t worked for?

We're boned.

by Zach (maestro876) on Nov 8, 2009 1:39 PM PST reply actions   0 recs

we already have our own ladanian.

Where the heck is everyone today?

Do we really have that many east coast members who are at the game today?

We're boned.

Yeah, weird.

33 Wins. Yeah, I said it.

What a throw.

Straight up against Corey Webster.

We're boned.

by Zach (maestro876) on Nov 8, 2009 1:45 PM PST reply actions   0 recs

Now the defense needs to get a stop

and we have to take it down and score again. Really put the pressure on the Giants.

We're boned.

by Zach (maestro876) on Nov 8, 2009 1:46 PM PST reply actions   0 recs

Ha! Eli ran out of bounds.

His head is so not in the game.

We're boned.

by Zach (maestro876) on Nov 8, 2009 1:52 PM PST reply actions   0 recs

No, he wasn't.

Refs blew the call. Giants using a challenge.

We're boned.

by Zach (maestro876) on Nov 8, 2009 1:52 PM PST up reply actions   0 recs

GOD DAMN IT.

YOU have to get these sacks. Can’t keep letting Eli get out and convert these.

We're boned.

by Zach (maestro876) on Nov 8, 2009 1:57 PM PST reply actions   0 recs

Nothing bugs me more

than getting into the backfield, but then letting the runner escape.

We're boned.

by Zach (maestro876) on Nov 8, 2009 1:58 PM PST reply actions   0 recs

1st and 25.

Gotta hold them here.

We're boned.

Sack fumble!

But the Giants keep it.

We're boned.

by Zach (maestro876) on Nov 8, 2009 2:01 PM PST reply actions   0 recs

MAN

All this pressure just to give up the first down.

by Dex on Nov 8, 2009 2:01 PM PST reply actions   0 recs

Great play by Siler.

And another flag on the Giants, so it doesn’t count.

We're boned.

by Zach (maestro876) on Nov 8, 2009 2:02 PM PST reply actions   0 recs

This game is going really fast.

That’s what happens when no one throws an incomplete pass.

We're boned.

by Zach (maestro876) on Nov 8, 2009 2:03 PM PST reply actions   0 recs

This is the same chargers defense we all know and love....

I was wondering where it went the last couple of weeks. Oh wait, the last two weeks we’ve played the Chiefs and Raiders….

Most football teams are temperamental.That's 90% temper and 10% mental.

by sdpads24 on Nov 8, 2009 2:11 PM PST reply actions   0 recs

3rd and 1.

Gotta pick this up.

We're boned.

by Zach (maestro876) on Nov 8, 2009 2:15 PM PST reply actions   0 recs

Nice run again

O line making some holes

by Norcal Boltfan on Nov 8, 2009 2:15 PM PST reply actions   0 recs

LT made that happen

with a jump cut behind the line.

We're boned.

by Zach (maestro876) on Nov 8, 2009 2:17 PM PST up reply actions   0 recs

Got it.

First down. Takes us to the 2min warning.

We're boned.

by Zach (maestro876) on Nov 8, 2009 2:15 PM PST reply actions   0 recs

3rd and 9.

Gotta convert this.

We're boned.

by Zach (maestro876) on Nov 8, 2009 2:20 PM PST reply actions   0 recs

short pass to hester - 3rd and 9ish now

we need to get the ball to gates or wr or its FG time

by Norcal Boltfan on Nov 8, 2009 2:21 PM PST reply actions   0 recs

Punting.

God damn it.

We're boned.

by Zach (maestro876) on Nov 8, 2009 2:22 PM PST reply actions   0 recs

Giants with 3 TOs and a minute left.

That’s at least 3 points for the Giants.

We're boned.

by Zach (maestro876) on Nov 8, 2009 2:23 PM PST reply actions   0 recs

We get the ball back.

Chance for a big return, maybe a hail mary or long FG.

We're boned.

by Zach (maestro876) on Nov 8, 2009 2:25 PM PST reply actions   0 recs

Damn it.

Sproles nearly would have had it in FG range. Gotta hail mary now.

We're boned.

by Zach (maestro876) on Nov 8, 2009 2:28 PM PST reply actions   0 recs

2 secs left.

Around mid field. Super long FG attempt here.

We're boned.

by Zach (maestro876) on Nov 8, 2009 2:29 PM PST reply actions   0 recs

Oh no.

Hail mary.

We're boned.
