Yesterday was a depressing day for both Giants and Jets fans as the two teams lost. The Giants fell to the Seahawks in the last few minutes of the game due to Seattle intercepting a ball from Eli Manning. Here are the highlights from the Giants game:

Later in the day, the Jets faced the New England Patriots in a losing effort. However, one notable thing was the Jets offense slightly improved compared to last week, but it still failed against the Patriots.

WWE
Here is a recap of what happened last week on WWE programming.

This Monday on Raw, WWE has advertised that the "Big 5" consisting of John Cena, CM Punk, Randy Orton, Sheamus, and The Big Show will appear on Raw. The rest of the WWE employees that "walked out" on WWE COO Triple H will protest.

That's all I have to say for now. Have a good week everyone!
