Dallas is just another team compared to the Giants to me. My intense hatred of the Giants stems from living in North Jersey during the Parcells years, where the only joy was Buddy Ryan kicking his fat ass twice a year. Giant fans are the worst fans in sports, and it isn't close - arrogant, obnoxious, and incredibly delusional (they truly believe Eli Manning is a HOFer and better than Tom Brady) like no fans I've ever been around.
I live at the Shore now, but today I was in a store and overheard a conversation between two guys, and this quote is verbatim - "I'm pissed that Dallas won because my scenario was Brady beating them, then beating San Fran, and us beating him again to get to the Super Bowl." In other words, beating Brady is a regular thing for the Giants, and it's assumed the Giants win Sunday.
Their fans still believe they are an elite franchise, and that the league revolves around the Giants. They truly believe that.
