In this Week 17 PREVIEW, the New York Giants travel to Minnesota to face off with the Vikings in a pretty pointless match-up (well, at least for the G-Men). Greg and Dan are honored to welcome childhood friend and fervent Vikings’ fanatic J-LA, who happens to be chillin’ in Argentina. The three spend some time talking about Argentina, Danish women, how J-La became a Vikings’ fan, and reminisce about high school. ALSO, we talk Brett Favre (also addressing the Favre/Childress affair), Percy Harvin, Adrian Peterson, Tarvaris Jackson, Chris Johnson, Visanthe Shiancoe, and JEREMY SHOCKEY. We even bring up good ole’ John Fox. We know that we’re done, BUT STAY WITH US!!

WARNING: Some may find this episode to be particularly off-color

Wouldn't it be nice to make things harder for ego-maniac Brett Favre?

In this Week 16 PREVIEW, the New York Giants host the Carolina Panthers in what will be the G-Men’s very last game in Giants Stadium. To commemorate the occasion, Greg and Dan welcome Winston-Salem’s native son CASEY to help add some insight on the collapse of Jake Delhomme and the struggles of the 2009 Carolina Panthers. The three spend a lot of time wondering what the hell happened to Delhomme, a one-time solid NFL QB, as well as pondering the fate of Carolina coach (and former Giants’ defensive coordinator) John Fox. Also coming up in conversation is the talented Steve Smith (which one?), Julius Peppers, the Panthers’ historical inability to string two consecutive seasons as a legitimate contender, and Carolina’s strikingly out-of-date nineties era uniforms. In addition, Dan regales Greg by describing his third consecutive appearance at midnight mass. All this and much more. DON’T MISS IT!!!

Will the absence of this guy help the Panthers ruin the G-Men's playoff aspirations?

In this Week 15 PREVIEW, Greg and Dan welcome Redskins’ fanatic (and budding business-genius) JAKE THE SNAKE to help them size up what await the G-Men in D.C. In so doing, the three touch on the Redskins’ historical misuse of Clinton Portis, whether the hype surrounding big off-season signings Albert Haynesworth and DeAngelo Hall proved worthwhile, and the upcoming free agency of Jason Campbell. More to the point, JAKE understanably harps on Dan Snyder, why he is a bad guy and a total douchebag, and how much he sucks for his franchise. ALSO, Greg and Dan find a little time at the end to talk about they’re excitement for the eventual debut of rookie RAMSES BARDEN.

Will an improving Jason Campbell be able to put a fork in the struggling Giants' playoff aspirations?

In this week 13 PREVIEW, the Dallas Cowboys come riding into Giants Stadium. To commemorate the occasion, Greg and Dan welcome SPECIAL GUEST, and resident Cowboy expert, REID, as the trio mock Wade Phillips and Jerry Jones, remark on the Cowgirl cage dancers, and duke it out over Eli and Tony Romo. Also, Greg and Dan anxiously anticipate Tiki Barber’s reception at Giants Stadium this Sunday when he serves as honorary team captain, respond to listener comments and email, and briefly (very briefly) address the New York/Boston sports rivalry. And DON’T MISS Greg and Dan finally going to battle over the Yankees, the first ever flare-up of the co-hosts’ competing MLB allegiances in the history of “The NYGMen Podcast.” Yet again, it’s DO OR DIE for the G-Men, so be a good fan and do what the Giants must . . . SHOW UP!!!

Will the G-Men manage to wipe the evil smirk off of Jerry Jones' face?

Greg and Dan also yap about Mike Francesa and his apparent utter distaste for struggling Jets’ QB Mark Sanchez. The two lament Tiki’s getting booed at Giants Stadium, discuss concussions in the NFL and Roger Goodell’s role in the matter, and deconstruct television commercials. Dan also points out how Jimmy Fallon revived the Madden curse that has been keeping Troy Polamalu down. As always, Greg and Dan pick their top 5 NFL teams after week 11, the hottest team in the NFC and AFC respectively, the scariest team in the NFC and AFC respectively, and week 11’s “Beast of the East.” They even do a brief preview on Thursday’s game against the Denver Broncos in the Mile High City. And who was awarded The NYGMen Podcast’s Week 11 T—-n C—-m “Breaking” play of the game? All of this and, believe it or not, a whole lot more on this ALL-AMERICAN-SIZED portion of “The NYGMen Podcast.” BON APPETIT!!!

In this Week 11 Preview podcast, Greg and Dan discuss this weekend’s DO OR DIE game against the Atlanta Falcons with Atlanta’s own COUSIN MICHAEL. In addition to analyzing what the Falcons may have in store for the Giants, the three still feel compelled to talk about the infamous Bill Belichick Sunday night gamble against the Colts as well as Brett Favre’s being mike’d up on this past week’s episode of “Inside the NFL.” Greg and Dan talk at length about the current cast of “Inside the NFL,” including Warren Sapp’s unadulterated gregariousness, how competitive Cris Collinsworth and Phil Simms must be with one another, and JB’s Harvard pedigree. Dan also goes off on pocket squares and shares some more tidbits of information about last week’s Jets’ experience with Greg. If the GMen don’t show up on Sunday, kiss their season goodbye. DON’T MISS THE PREVIEW OF WHAT MIGHT BE THE MOST CRUCIAL REGULAR SEASON GAME IN RECENT MEMORY!!!

In this Week 9 Preview podcast, Greg and Dan look towards the Chargers’ visit to Giants Stadium with trepidation. Nonetheless, their concern neither prevents them from figuring out which jersey Dan should wear to the game nor ridiculing Tila Tequila for her clownish skankiness. Also, thanks to unexpected technical difficulties, The NYGMen Podcast welcomes very special (and unanticipated) guest WILD WILL to help Dan complete the Giants/Chargers pregame analysis, while also finding some time to mock “Avatar,” Smirnoff Ice, and Kanye West. ENJOY!!
