If you let yourself go and just dream about it … what a wonderful weekend it would be.
Is this a fever dream? Of course it’s a fever dream.
And that Philly one … well, damn. It’s so close you’ll almost be able to hear the rambunctiousness emanating from Lincoln Financial Field all the way up the Turnpike. Close enough to dream about. Close enough to wonder … The way the football has bounced around here, there have been precious few chances for either team to ever host a title game. The Giants have been a No. 1 seed in the NFC exactly twice ; the Jets never have. Heck, even the three times it has happened here, twice the teams needed luck — in 1968 it was simply the AFL Eastern Division’s turn to host . In 1986 the Giants needed Washington to eliminate the Bears in order to get that game in East Rutherford.
And then Monday night — Monday night! Prime time in the Big Apple! — MetLife would switch from green to blue like magic, and Giants fans of every borough and county and neighboring township would declare it a local civic holiday, and the anticipation would start just after breakfast and … well, good luck to the Eagles or the Cowboys or the 49ers who would have to deal withWe’ve had a Super Bowl here. We’ve had a Subway Series in baseball.
