Official Stadium Opener/Sham Coin Toss thread (merged)

Updating for those late comers.

Jets will open the stadium in a big way on the Primetime Monday Night Game.

NFL Screws the Jets Yet Again

Gary Myers is reporting the Giants won the secret coin toss to open the stadium. It was so secret, they didn't tell the teams about until AFTER the toss. The teams were just notified who won. That's just total BS.

I'd rather have the 16th game.

This is just absolutely BS! I can't express the emotion right now... but I'm EXTREMELY annoyed that neither the Giants nor the NFL have the decency to let the Jets open up the stadium. Man, I really wish the WSS wasn't so doomed and the Gints were still playing in the old raggedy POS stadium. This really is a travesty and a supreme smack in the face.

of course..it was "secret". Let's put it this way, had the giants made it to the championship game and the jets not made it to the playoffs would if even be a question who opens the stadium? Lemme guess Giants/Lame overhyped NFC East team...pathetic.

I read it, so I'm not sure about the sarcasm here.

But that's the report.[/QUOTE]

Figures the damn stinking Giants won it. I guess we'll just have to close out the season there in the playoffs.

[quote]Cimini: Source says Woody is "outraged" by coin toss -- not because he lost, but because there was no team rep present.[/quote]

With Woody being a high ranking owner on the committee, this could possibly get redone.

Its even more ridiculous when you consider that Fatcessa came out and said in late January that the NFL will make the Bears & Giants open the new stadium. If he you are to believe Mr. fatty then this story is an out and out lie.

It makes sense to me that the Giants would open up the new Giants Stadium
