Monday Night Football featured the struggling Giants against the reborn Redskins. The Giants entered the day at 7-6 and needing this win to keep a game behind the Wild Card leaders. They definitely got it too as the Giants destroyed the Redskins 45-12. Eli Manning was fantastic with 268 yards passing and 3 TD passes. The Redskins defense looked horrible and the offense couldn't get anything started until it was way too late. The Giants now need to hope that either the Cowboys or the Packers slip up this week.
Other stories of the day included Mike Holmgren being hired by the Browns as Team President. Holmgren retired from coaching the Seahawks last year and now looks to be a front office kind of guy. Eric Mangini better impress Mike in the last two games of the year or his job as head coach could be in jeopardy. In College Basketball, the Kentucky Wildcats became the first team ever in NCAA Basketball to win 2000 games as they beat Drexel earlier today 88-44. I'm sure Calipari and the Wildcats will think about this achievement for a brief second and then think about the next game. The way this team is going, they could go deep into the NCAA Tournament when it comes around in March.
