Simms Freestone
Posted May 31, 2011
By admin
I am getting back into fly fishing after being away for many years. I am looking to invest in a new pair of?
Waders. I have been looking at Simms, Orvis and LL Bean. I am hoping to spend around $300 and searching for the best waders with the best warranty. I will be fishing around 10 days a month in the streams of northern NJ. I have looked at the Orvis silver label and pro guide, LL Bean helix and rapid river and the Simms headwater and freestone. Any help guiding to a selection will be helpful
i have had a pair of orvis silver label that i used guiding. they lasted for years. wore them almost every day for 4 months in alaska. they are a quality product.

New York Giants "Simm-ply Super" Framed Lithograph $255 The Giants- once considered one of the most cherished of all football teams- had been on a free fall since 1964. Finally- in '86- everything would come together. Posting an amazing record of 14-2- the Giants would storm through the playoffs- en route to the team’s first championship game since 1963. In the big game against Denver- Simms was masterful. With Denver leading 10-9 in the third quarter- Simms marched his team on a 63 yard scoring drive that culminated with a 13 yard touchdown pass to inspirational tight end- Mark Bavaro. After snaring the ball in the end-zone- Bavaro knelt down on a knee- as if to be giving thanks to be part of this special moment. Later in the second half the game was put away as Simms connected with Phil McConkey on a six yard scoring play. Item measures 19.75'' x 27'' |

NFL Americas Game NY Giants Super Bowl XXI $11.69 Rated: NRSynopsis: Bill Parcells has coached many great players over his NFL career, yet only a select few have been allowed to enter his inner circle. These are his "guys." A "Parcells guy" is usually someone you don't have to worry much about. He's reliable, productive, and smart. Even if he plays like a star, he rarely acts like one.The 1986 Giants had a few "Parcells guys". Outside linebacker Lawrence Taylor collected 20.5 sacks that season and won the NFL MVP Award, the first defensive player to do so since 1971. Joe Morris, a 1,500 yard rusher, was a Parcells favorite. Harry Carson, the vocal middle linebacker, and Mark Bavaro, a reserved tight end, were Parcells men, too. Quarterback Phil Simms was another matter. In eight years with the Giants, Simms had been maligned by the media and the fans for being good, but seldom great. Even a 14-2 regular season did not silence Simms' critics, or fully satisfy the demands of his head coach. Then, in Super Bowl XXI against Denver, Simms became the ultimate Parcells player, passing with a degree of precision unmatched in the big game's history.Join NFL Films as they retell the story of the '86 Giants, the team that began the Parcells legend. America's Game uses exclusive interviews from the coach himself, Simms and Taylor to reminisce about Big Blue's first Super Bowl championship |

America's Game - The Super Bowl Champions Series DVD Details: New York Giants, SB XXI, SB XXV $24.99 The New York Giants hadn't won an NFL championship in 30 years before Bill Parcells' led them to two Super Bowl victories in 5 years. 1986 the Giants were loaded. On defense- Lawrence Taylor- considered by many to be the best Outside Linebacker ever to play the game- won the NFL MVP Award. He and Middle Linebacker- Harry Carson- both future Hall of Famers- led an overwhelming defense. On offense- the Giants were led by Tight End Mark Bavaro- 1500 yard rusher- Joe Morris and Quarterback Phil Simms- a good quarterback who had yet to prove he could be great. In Super Bowl XXI he did just that with a precision passing game that is unmatched as the Giants defeated the Broncos 39-20. Four years later- injuries threatened to ruin the Giants' 1990 season. With 2 weeks to go in the regular season- Simms was lost for the remainder of the year and it would be up to an untested- back-up- Jeff Hostetler to lead the team into the playoffs. Although he had thrown barely more than 100 passes in the previous 6 seasons- Hostetler exceeded all expectations- winning 5 straight starts including a victory over the Bills in Super Bowl XXV- one of the most exciting games in Super Bowl history. |
