Hey, Giant Fans. Welcome to The Giant Insider podcast. My name is Jerry Foley. I'm the senior editor of the Giant Insider newspaper. And with me, as always, is the beat writer in the heart of Giants Nation. Nobody beats the biz. Chris Bizzignan. Chris, before we begin, I want to thank our sponsor, Fitzpatrick Crest Tavern, located at 9600 Pacific Avenue in Diamond Beach, just between Wildwood Crest and Cape May.

They have a huge selection of spirits, including 21 beers on tap, many of which are from local

microbreweries in the South Jersey area. They have 18 widescreen TV, so you can watch your

favorite NFL team through their Sunday ticket, and they have many delicious appetizers,

including my personal favorite,

the Mardi Gras shrimp, as well as dinner options like the roast beef Supreme Bake Grouper and Linguinean

Muscles. So if you find yourself vacationing on the South Jersey Shore, head over to Fitzpatrick's

Crest Tavern and tell the owner San Fitzpatrick that the giant insider sent me. That's Fitzpatrick's

Crest Tavern in Diamond Beach, just between Wildwood Crest and Cape May, the best shuck in town. So Saturday, Chris, I don't know if ever looked less forward to a Giants game just because I thought they're going to lose by like 40. So I'm trying to think of things like, I'm trying to think of things like maybe I can kick off with, you know, on Saturday actually. I'm like, well, I went to a pizza place that I never been to

that was phenomenal called Brooklyn Square and Jackson. Maybe I can bring that up.

Notre Dame, Chris, beat USC. I know you're happy about that. So, you know, I was flipping back

and forth between Notre Dame USC and the North

Carolina game. I'd be honest with you going back and forth. But look, you know, the game started

last night and the Giants defense played really, really well, kept them in the game. The offense was up six, nothing.

But, you know, look, we'll go through the whole game, Chris.

But the pessimist giant fan in me realized that I could have turned that game off at halftime

when we called a running play instead of a pass.

And the clock ran out.

Look, it was a valiant effort, but we're one in five.

We lost another one.

Would I have felt better if we're two and four going against the commanders, the Jets, and then the Raiders?

Yeah, absolutely.
