ZippyAlum Posted August 19, 2008 Report Posted August 19, 2008 And they still haven't mentioned U of A! Quote
ziptrumpet87 Posted August 19, 2008 Report Posted August 19, 2008 And they still haven't mentioned U of A!Actually I did hear them mention it... in the same sentance as him going to high school in Columbus. Quote
Zip_ME87 Posted August 19, 2008 Report Posted August 19, 2008 I'm disappointed in Tirico..."Are you kiddin' me" that he doesn't remember calling the 2005 MACC.Also, I think he mistakenly said that Domenik went to Whitehall high school in Akron and never mentioned UA. Quote
zip37 Posted August 19, 2008 Report Posted August 19, 2008 Ya gotta remember ESPN [stupid] is the same network that said Wright St. beating Mich St. was the biggest win in school history, despite the fact that Wright St. won back to back National Championships.All ESPN [stupid] knows is the BCS schools and history.

zippyfan34 Posted August 19, 2008 Report Posted August 19, 2008 Went to the game as we were in New York. Great game for Hixon. Just saw the highlights on ESPN, and Scott Van Pely recognized the Zips connection. Off to bed for now. Quote

Just saw the highlights on ESPN, and Scott Van Pely recognized the Zips connection. Off to bed for now.Great game by DH. They did mention UA once just to correct themselves.It would be nice to have another UA product become a well known NFL player.Since I am a UA alum and I live five minutes from Whitehal High School I couldn't be happier with the way last night went for Hixon. It's funny, I never heard anyone talk about him much down here until the Everett collison last year. Now, with the Giants Super Bowl win, his TD return against the Patriots in the regular season and the opening of his summer football camp here I hear about him all the time.Congrats to Domenik. I hope he has a breakout season. Quote
Dr Z Posted August 19, 2008 Report Posted August 19, 2008 Hixon, Giants get a quick jump on BrownsHixon, Three TD's in Giants VictoryHixon Highlights via NFL.comMost fun I had watching a preseason NFL game in a long time. That second TD catch was AWESOME! :blink: Quote
johnnyzip84 Posted August 19, 2008 Report Posted August 19, 2008 I think I might grab him in the later rounds in my fantasy draft GO ZIPS!!!!!! Quote
ZippyRulz Posted August 19, 2008 Report Posted August 19, 2008 Congrats to DH. Looks like he has secured a spot in the NFL for another season, even if the Giants don't keep him. The higher-paid star receivers probably don't like to see a performance like that from a relative unknown.I didn't get to see too much of the game...did Chase play a lot and turn in a good performance? Quote
zen Posted August 19, 2008 Author Report Posted August 19, 2008 I think I might grab him in the later rounds in my fantasy draft GO ZIPS!!!!!!That's what I was thinking. I wont take him too early because I suspect everyone in my league (unless there are Giants fans) will not know him.Did you see Domenik really turn on the afterburners about half way through his kickoff return.He's got a serious third gear Quote

Did see him on screen breifly, but I didn't watch too much of the game so I don't know how much he contributed beyond the one tackle. Quote

I know, you're not supposed to draft with your "heart", but how many chances do you get (unless you play in a league that has positions for defense) to assure yourself of getting a Zip on your roster? (OK, I DID have Frye briefly for similar reasons )To throw my 2 cents in on another comment, I don't think there is any way the Giants don't keep Hixon this year, unless another team in even greater need at receiver makes them an "offer", the likes of which is normally associated with a certain ficticious resident of north Jersey who is well know in "Sanitation Consulting" circles Quote
Zipgrad1990 Posted August 19, 2008 Report Posted August 19, 2008 I think I might grab him in the later rounds in my fantasy draft GO ZIPS!!!!!!We had our draft early (last week) due to lots of people being out of town for the next several weeks. I picked up Hixon as my last pick just so I could have a Zip on my team and so I could add "Go Zips!" as I drafted him. I figured I'd keep him for a couple of weeks at most and drop him. Now I am hoping I'll actually get to play him. I used to draft Charlie Frye when he was with the Brown's just so I could have a Zip on my team. I actually used him as a starter once as an emergency, and I believe he did okay, but I'd love to have a Zip who scored on a consistant basis and could be part of my starting lineup. Quote
ZippyRulz Posted September 14, 2008 Report Posted September 14, 2008 Looks like DH had a good day...3 catches for 60 yards, a 50-yd punt return and a couple of tackles. Apparently Plaxico is healthy and playing again. Quote

Apparently Plaxico is healthy and playing again.Yup. I started him in my Yahoo FF league. I has faith in Dominik. He got 10.8 points for me. Quote
ZippyRulz Posted September 25, 2008 Report Posted September 25, 2008 DH to start for suspended PBhttp://www.nj.com/sports/index.ssf/2008/09...hixon_in_b.html Quote
zen Posted September 25, 2008 Author Report Posted September 25, 2008 DH to start for suspended PBhttp://www.nj.com/sports/index.ssf/2008/09...hixon_in_b.htmlI didn't start him on my team last weekend, and he has a bye this weekend, but I'll definitely play him while Buress is out. Plus you got the bonus of him doing Punt returns Quote
MDZip Posted October 5, 2008 Report Posted October 5, 2008 4 catches, 102 yards, 1 TD in the first half in his first start. Don't hurry back, Plexiglas. Quote

Don't hurry back, Plexiglas. over 25ypc, and he scores often.... after this and the showing in that pre-season game, he has shined in limited playing time.I dunno why NY staff doesn't wake up and give him more PT Quote

Maybe he turns this year into a big payday. Hixon fieldhouse, anyone? Quote
