Jeremy Shockey showed up as advertised at the Powerade Pro Challenge Saturday in Flushing Meadows Corona Park. He did not want to answer questions about his somewhat tumultuous off-season, but did offer a statement which shows all is not well between him and the Giants - and that he may not show up at Wednesday's mandatory minicamp. "The statement I would like to make about the Giants and the speculation in the off-season is whatever happens between the upper management, the lower management, the owners, any management is going to keep between ourselves," he said. "Unlike the Giants, I'm going to be quiet. They have released multiple things about myself. If you look back into the media there's always a 'source.' Well I'd like to know who the source is?I haven't said one thing of disdain towards the Giants in the newspapers. I have never expressed a feeling of the things you guys made up. I'm here doing a great deal with Powerade and that's it. You guys will be able to talk to me if I make it to the minicamp so you guys will have a chance to interrogate me a little bit more."

SHOCKEY SPEAKS
The "I want to be traded" playbook has developed a new wrinkle. If a players asks to be traded and isn't traded, then he acts like he never made the request.
The latest example? Giants tight end Jeremy Shockey, who clearly wanted (wants) out of New York and who wasn't traded because the Giants and the Saints couldn't agree on terms.
