Jon Stewart rips Brian Daboll, Chuck Schumer speeches in hilarious rant
Apparently if you wear enough blue, you are bound to feel blue.
At least that’s the message Jon Stewart, the host of the ‘The Daily Show,’ conveyed during an episode on Nov. 10. While ranting about the Democrats’ role in ending the government shutdown, Stewart also drew a comparison between former New York Giants head coach Brian Daboll, and Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer.
‘For those of you that don’t follow the New York Football Giants, because let’s say you value your time on this earth, this is a football team on three separate occasions this season, has blown games, that statistically speaking, based on their sizable leads vis-a-vis the amount of time left in the athletic contest, they had a 95% to 99% percent chance of winning,’ Stewart said.
The host alluded to the nearly 97% win probability the Giants had in Week 10 against the Chicago Bears before proceeding to lose, which ended up being a key contributor to what Stewart said was not a good weekend for him.
‘Now for those of you who believe that professional sports and politics are an inept comparative, not only did the Democrats and Giants lose in the same, I can’t (expletive) believe it manner, they sound the same doing it,’ Stewart added.
Take a look.
The comparisons seemingly end there, for now anyway, since election season is in the rearview for 2025.
Daboll wasn’t subjected to elections, but he certainly lost a vote of confidence from the Giants organization, who fired the coach on Nov. 10.
It came on the heels of another late game collapse by ‘Big Blue’ – after his team blew a 10-point lead with under four minutes to go against the Chicago Bears. Unfortunately for Daboll, that was the rule and not the exception.
New York managed to lose in Dallas after leading by three with 14 seconds left. The Giants lost in New Orleans after building a double-digit lead against the Saints. They allowed a 30-point fourth quarter to the Broncos, blowing an 18-point lead with five minutes left.
Then there was the collapse in Chicago.
At the very least, Stewart can look forward to the football team selecting a new leader. It remains to be seen if he can say the same for the political side.
