Why?

Not as in "why have the show?" When it comes to Hard Knocks, the league is committed to finding new places in the pizza into which cheese can be stuffed. But why be the team that opens itself up to the cameras and microphones for the weeks and months during which plenty of sensitive strategic conversations occur and important decisions are made?

After sleeping on it and realizing that there isn't much else going on today, I decided to re-watch the whole episode and come up with a list of reasons why this might not be the best decision the Giants ever made.

All very good points. I don't believe the Giants would ever have participated in HK if the league hadn't badgered them for years.

Yes, John Mara was very opposed to appearing on the show.
