I thought Todd France did a heckuva of a job for the Giants. Yeah, he's a Toledo Rocket, but credit IS due here.
Steve Christie is a putz...I don't get what people see in a kicker who can't kickoff and can barely make 45-yarders.

"There were times a couple of weeks ago where I could not have made a high school team,'' France said. "Wind conditions sometimes are a problem and sometimes I just stink.''

Continuing that thought, France later said "I wonder if I can go back and play for Toledo, I've only used 12 of my 16 years of eligibility."
(Or as my brother so aptly put it, "Yeah, that dude was on the Acie Earl plan.")
