Quote from: MightyGiants on April 30, 2024, 09:45:19 AMThe Giants have been run the same way for decades. The GM is the ultimate decider, but the owner shares his views and opinions. Frankly, considering that Mara grew up on Giants football, that doesn't seem like the worst thing. The man learned football from greats like George Young, Bill Parcells, and Tom Coughlin. It's not like he is some wealthy stockbroker who thinks his financial savvy easily translates to the football world.I didn't like the Yankees owner as a person. But I liked the results. I'm a fan. All I want from the owner of the team I root for is results. Im not nor never will be his friend.
I have heard people in the know fault Mara's loyalty, and I don't disagree. Ronnie Barnes is the poster boy for people the team has kept past their sell-by-data. Still, I hear far more unfair and unfounded criticism, in terms of conspiracy theories (I am not a fan of conspiracy theories), than he deserves.
