From head coach Pat Shurmur on down, the New York Giants stayed on message. They boasted, “we don’t quit” to anyone with a microphone or notepad after Sunday’s loss to the Dallas Cowboys.
Dutifully, the scribes jotted this gem of wisdom down, and those on television nodded in agreement as to the absolute veracity of the statement. Thankfully, as the NFL season concludes, the amount of worthless quotes begins to lessen. Just one small problem is that instead of simply enduring coach-speak, we now endure a week’s worth of owner-speak and GM-speak too.
Understand that the idea of “no-quit” only applies to the lousy teams.
