I was all set to go into Super Bowl week as a team player, willing to give up my best chance ever to win a monthly page views title for the sake of the greater good by promoting our Giants and NFL blogs religiously.
Then this insult from Crean, er, Glauber. (By the way, much as I like "Seinfeld," the only true Uncle Leo is the one in "The Honeymooners" Christmas episode.)
The gloves are off now.
Here's a guarantee:
If I don't beat Glauber in January page views . . . I will ask Craig Carton to walk the Brooklyn Bridge in a Speedo again.
(UPDATE: Newsday's own Joe Manniello just made an excellent observation. Glauber is my very own . . . Newman.)

i thought that was picture of a skinny tom arnold.
Best:
If I beat you in January page views, I will personally walk across the Brooklyn Bridge in a Speedo alongside Carton.
(La Monica, please start fudging the numbers. There could be some huge publicity for Newsday in this.)
at last count Thursday afternoon, Glauber was ahead by about 2,000 page views.
And there we have my submission for this year's Jayson Blair Award.
Am I getting this right - Glauber is ahead 2000, and if he stays ahead he gets to do the Speedo thing? Click, click, click...
Uh-oh - I hope you have legs as nice as Carton's!
NKR:
Pay attention to the Jayson Blair comment of La Monica. Google his name and you will know what he's talking about and whether I'm REALLY 2,000 page views ahead.
That said, let's make a race of this anyway.
click ... click ... click.
