Who’s Smarter Than a Giants Fan

A New York Giants fan was seated next to a little, eight-year-old girl on an airplane getting ready fly off to Dallas, where he intended to see a Monday night game between the Dallas Cowboys and the New York Giants. The stranger turned to the little girl and said, “Let’s talk. I’ve heard that these flights go much quicker if you strike up a conversation with your fellow passenger.” The little girl, who had just opened her book, closed it slowly and said to the Giants fan, “What would you like to talk about.” “Oh I don’t know,” said the Giants fan. “How about football?” “OK,” said the little girl, “that could be an interesting topic. But let me ask you a question first. A horse, a cow and a deer all eat green grass, the same stuff. Yet a deer excretes little pellets, while a cow turns out a flat patty and a horse produces clumps of dried grass. I've always wondered why that is. Why do you suppose that is?” The Giants fan thought about it and said, “Hmmmm, I have absolutely no idea.” To which the little girl replied: “Do you really feel qualified to discuss football when, apparently, you don’t know shit.”
