Sports: Pro Football: New York Giants vs Dallas Cowboys

.
I've been watching the Dallas Cowboys vs New York Giants game out of East Rutherford, New Jersey. Much a naif, I found myself siding with the red jerseys, which turned out to be those of the Giants who are lagging behind the Cowboys ahead by 3 points (10 Giants, 13 Cowboys). Brandon Jacobs (263 llb) cawt the pass by Eli Manning, with Jacobs moving his bulk some 20 yards at breakneck speed. Another tuff opponent on the losing side at the moment, would be a guy named Shockey. Then there's T C Barber.

Tony Romo is the head honcho for the 'Boys team. Aside from Romo's, the only name I absorbed from the Cowboys is Martin Grammatica's--he's their kickisto. ... But now in a set of electric moves, the Giants have tied-up the score, 13-13. Yeah, team! (We're in the 4th Quarter, so things are thick and tense.)

Dallas scores again, 20 to NYG's 13. 2-minute warning. Shaving ad.

TC Barber receives from Manning and gains 28 yards for the Giants. Another yardage gain by Barber. Now, Burress scores another touchdown for the Giants. Tie again! A thriller of a pro-football game, American style.

A minute left, two time-outs. Cowboys in field-goal proximity, but get a 5-yard penalty. Which puts Dallas in question because Grammatica's range is doubtful now. Romo is whipping his boys into a final-moments frenzy. Grammatica comes out to the field for the field-goal kick, crossing himself, crossing himself again.

Giants take a time-out. Grammatica is crossing himself again, and again.

Grammatica takes his kick, puts Cowboys on top. Dallas 23, Giants 20.

1 second left. Giants make their play. Fizzes out.

Dallas Cowboys win.
