Giants | Safeties will not apologize to Shockey
Tue, 1 Aug 2006 21:49:42 -0700

The Associated Press reports New York Giants FS Will Demps and SS Gibril Wilson will not apologize to TE Jeremy Shockey (concussion) after giving him a mild concussion during practice Monday, July 31. Demps downplayed the collision, saying both he and SHockey were going for the ball when Demps elbow hit Shockey's facemask and knocked him hard to the ground. Demps said he tried to ask Shockey how he was immediately after the play was over, but Shockey seemed to ignore him. When the evening practice ended two plays later, Shockey threw his helmet in disgust. Demps feels there is no need to apologize and said, "We were both going for a play. It is what it is. It's a mild concussion. It's football." Wilson said Shockey might be a little miffed because the defensive backs did a good job of keeping the ball away from him during both practices Monday. Wilson added, "Will made a great play and Shockey didn't appreciate it. He did not like it at all. But it is what it is."

Hmm! Might have been the concussion [not] talking! :D

Thanks for that, bavpb. A quiet Shockey ... :-? Looks like the coaches have a little work to do on team spirit!

I guess the secondary is just supposed to let Shockey catch the ball and be a hero...that's bullsh*t.

I'm glad the d-backs took the approach they did after Shockey's little crybaby session. He's a good TE but there's no need for that. It's football for crying out loud.
