Giants vs. Packers: What They're Saying...

In anticipation of Sunday's matchup between the New York Giants and the Green Bay Packers, I thought it might be interesting to take a look at the stories coming out of both camps in order to see how both sides view their opponent and what they see when they look in the mirror.

Here's what I found:

Out of the Big Apple:

From the land of brats:

So there you have it folks. Giants seem to be getting some important cogs back into their machine this week and the Packers couldn't care less that their starting linebacker hits women.

I have no idea what's going to happen on Sunday.

Go Big Blue!
