There was a time when this game between the Giants and Jets would have meant a lot to Damon Harrison. Or at least to his coach.
“Everything was a big deal, everything,” Harrison said of playing for the Jets under Rex Ryan. “He made you believe that every game, every snap, everything mattered, as do a lot of coaches. But it was just a little different with Rex, and he wanted the “Snoopy Bowl” more than some others.”
Ah, the Snoopy Bowl, complete with the bronze statue of the cartoon character himself — a silent spokesman for MetLife — which goes to the winner.
