I'm a Giants Fan too. I was at the '56 Championship Game where the Giants Beat the Bears 47-7, and also at a bunch of other games Giant Fans like to remember. And I've never officially recognized the entry of the Jets into the League.

I understand. I am a lifelong Rams fan. I repeatedly have to point out to Cowboys fans, that far from being "America's Team," the Dallas Cowboys are but one of many expansion teams. My boundary line was the integration of the AAFC ... Browns, Colts, etc. Since the AAFC started winning championships from year one, they were a legitimate second league.

Funny about the Cowboys. They are responsible for the only Jets games I ever attended. But it was a Titans game. When the Cowboys entered the league, they were the 13th team so every team had a bye that year. And the week the Giants had a bye, a friend of mine had comp tickets to the AFL NY Titans vs Billy Cannon and the Houston Oilers. But the Oilers are the Titans now!

PS I was close to an invite to the game in Pittsburgh on Sunday, but the late start sort of put the kibosh on that.
