    Giants-Jets game. Here’s one: The black cat may come back.Via the George Asafo-Adjei Jersey Boys , the black cat that crashed the party on Monday night remains loose at MetLife Stadium, with efforts to capture the kitty unsuccessful.“We are hopeful that together we can find the black cat that we all fell in love with Monday night,” said a statement issued Thursday via MetLife Stadium.The cat surely doesn’t want to be caught. While far from Garfieldian proportions, the cat looks to be well fed, and food scraps from 82,000 fans attending 20 NFL games per year will tend help that process along.MetLife Stadium denied in its statement a report that it feeds 300 cats.“From time to time, we have seen cats on the complex and the Meadowlands Racetrack (located at the Meadowlands Sports Complex) has a TNR program in place and currently feeds approximately 30 barn cats,” the statement said.“Barn cats” sounds a lot better than feral cats Infant George Asafo-Adjei Jersey , which is what the black cat and whatever other stray cat Dwight Schrute may find running around the stadium is. Regardless, Sunday’s Giants-Jets game could feature a return of the cat, unless the cat is smart enough to know that there are far better things to do than watch the Giants and Jets play football.

That is what so many, perhaps even New York Giants decision-makers themselves, see when they look at Daniel Jones George Asafo-Adjei Jersey Draft , the quarterback the Giants selected No. 6 overall to be Manning’s heir apparent.Jones began his Giants career on Friday by sounding a lot like Manning during his first tussle with the New York media throng. He was calm, even-keeled, comfortable with the cameras trained on him. And he gave effusive praise to Manning.The rookie said he spoke to Manning via phone on Friday, the day after the Giants selected him. He said it was “awesome” to have someone like Manning to learn from.“I’m looking forward to spending time with him and learning from him,” Jones said after a walk-thru with other Giants’ rookies. “This is a huge opportunity to be around a guy like that.”The biggest thing he can learn from the two-time Super Bowl winner the Giants hope he willreplace?“I think a lot of it is in his routine,” Jones said. “Anyone who has played that long and had that much success certainly has a routine, and there’s a reason he’s had that success. To me, I think it’s just watching him every day and learning from what he does every day. How he carries himself George Asafo-Adjei NFL Jersey , how he prepares. To be able to watch that is an awesome opportunity.”Jones said playing for the Giants was “the place I wanted to be.” He aded that “getting comfortable” is the primary goal for him during the rookie mini-camp.Jones on the mixed reaction to his selection by the Giants.“It would be hard to be completely unaware of a lot of that stuff the way it works nowadays, but there’s a lot to focus on, a lot to learn for me right now,” Jones said. “Being here, learning the offense. I’m not sure I can afford to really focus on that too much.”Jones fielded some leading questions about maintaining a good relationship with a quarterback he was brought in to eventually put out of work.“We both want the same thing,” Jones said. “We want the Giants to win football games. ... However that happens, whatever the plan is, I’m here to do that.“I understand my role is to learn from him and I’ll certainly be focused on improving myself.”Jones said he will have plenty to occupy his time even if he isn’t playing.“It’s not like I’m just sitting and watching. There’s a lot to do George Asafo-Adjei NFL Draft ,” Jones said. “It’s an active process in learning the playbook and understanding what it is to be a New York Giant. I think I’m patient, I’m looking forward to it, there’s a lot of work to do.”Jones and his rookie teammates go through a full practice for the first time on Friday afternoon.
