Buh-Bye Jeremy

Ok this has nothing to do with anything, but the New York Giants traded Tight End Jeremy Shockey to the Saints for a couple of draft picks.

Good riddance.  As a diehard Jints fan, there was no denying that Shockey had become a cancer in the huddle.  The guy was more concerned about his stats than the team, and took pleasure in brow beating Eli Manning at every turn. 

It's no surprise that they went on their amazing run at exactly the time when Shockey went down for the season.  Backup TE Kevin Boss did more than a serviceable job, and it freed up Eli Manning to look at all of his options, rather than worry about Shockey and his cartoonish antics.

I only wish the Giants had gotten more than a 2nd and 5th round draft pick in return, but at the end of the day this is the best thing for Eli Manning and the team.
