David Diehl returns but Giants' practice without two starting linemen

[RoanokeFan]

You have to wonder, they could just swap Baas and Boothe then slide Diehl in if Snee can't go....

True, if Baas' only deficit is handling the ball.

sorry but he desreves respect....so shut up....

I showed my respect by welcoming him back.

Most will respect him for being Giant, but he has not played well for a while now.

Should Baas and Snee not be able to go, what choices do we really have? Sit Diehl and put Petrus and Cordle in? If so, where? Cordle at center probably, Petrus???

In that scenario(Baas and Snee out), maybe they put Boothe at center? Cordle at RG? Petrus at LG?

Or do they leave Boothe at LG, and like you said plug Cordle in at C and Petrus at RG?

Do they dare put Diehl in at either guard position in that case?

exactly.....it happens to many players. Their abilities fall off at some point. No reason to say the guy sucks or he's a bum or whatever.
There are many ways to say things. Deihl deserves respect IMO.

then you disrespected him....I think he doesnt deserve that. From a fan's perspective its a bush league comment....

My guess earlier in the thread if Baas and Snee are out was Diehl LG, Boothe C, Cordle RG. If only Baas is out, just put Snee back in his RG position and Cordle at LG. If only Snee is out, Boothe plays C and Cordle LG.

Correct, there are. Which is why instead of calling Diehl out for being the **** tackle he is, I phrased it as to show his effect on other players.

Further, there are many better ways to get your disapproval across to other people than "so shut up...".

YIPEEEEEE....the most prolific turnstile on the Giants OL is coming back? Peachy!
The most important date missing from Diehl's NFL resume' is "RETIRED 2010"

There was another thread with Vacchiano (or however you spell his name) saying that Snee and Baas are both back...
