Penn State Scandal

On Saturday, news broke that a grand jury had charged former Penn State defensive coordinator Jerry Sandusky with 40 criminal counts of molesting eight young boys between 1994 and 2009, as well as charging the athletic director Tim Curley and PSU vice president Gary Schultz with perjury. Not only has Penn State been under the spotlight for what Jerry Sandusky had done, but is also under the spotlight for losing some of their recruits.  Penn State is losing a bunch of great recruits due to this situation, they do not want to get involved with a program that has problems like Penn State does right now.  

Super Bowl XLII Repeat

The Giants and the Patriots met for the first time since Super Bowl XLII.  The outcome was very similar, actually extremely similar. The game came down to another last minute run by Eli Manning and Giants.  With 19 seconds left, Eli Manning threw another touchdown almost in the same fashion as Super Bowl XLII.  It was a throw to the back left corner of the end zone where Jake Ballard stretched out for the catch. The Giants win 24-20.

Giant Loss

Running back for the Giants, Ahmad Bradshaw, has a cracked bone in his foot. Bradshaw has a total of 440 yards and 5 TD's this season so far.  Bradshaw has a history of ankle and foot ailments, and he underwent multiple surgeries early in 2010 to insert screws into both of his feet and to remove bone spurs from his right ankle. The Giants are not sure when Bradshaw will return.  A source states that coach, Tom Coughlin, will address the media on Thursday.
