Golden Nuggets: Bring on the Cardinals

I don't quite know why I dislike the New York Giants, but seeing them losing as badly as they have been is a wonderful exercise in schadenfreude. I like it when Eli Manning throws interceptions ... again, I'm not sure why. But now we look ahead to the San Francisco 49ers and their matchup against the Arizona Cardinals.

I'm not really ... worried about this game as it stands. I think they're a pretty unremarkable team, but then again, it's an NFC West matchup, so I guess anything can happen. That said, I think the 49ers are better just about everywhere.

I'm running late so we're just going to jump right into your links for the day. Enjoy, ya'll.
