When Jerry Reese was general manager of the New York Giants, one of my favorite pastimes was pre-writing Reese’s press conferences. Year after year, presser after presser, the same cliches would get recycled. You knew what he was going to say. It was too easy. You could make a list of Reese’s favorite lines, then check them off as he used them.
Well, Reese is no longer the GM. Dave Gettleman is. That, though, doesn’t mean we have to quit playing our little “what will the GM say?” prediction game. Gettleman will speak to the media Thursday afternoon at Giants’ headquarters, his first pre-draft press conference as Giants’ GM.
