i am not sure what else millionaire/billionaire owners do all day. it seems like he basically listened to francesca following the botched benching of eli by firing mcadoo and starting eli the rest of the year, so we know he listens to traditional media, and is reactive. i wonder if he reads this site at all. we know hanlon, papa, ranan and various other beats have been active here.
Any entertainment organization (which is what the NY Football Giants organization is) has to be aware of what fans are saying on the web. Even if it's interns, someone's got to be reading and making notes. They don't have infinite manpower, they can't be listening to every show on WFAN and ESPN-NY, but the organization has to be aware of what fans and media are saying/writing.
Hahahaha
Gives them a pulse of fan sentiment. I would if I were them.
Why would anyone read this board to figure out what is going on?
All we need now is a image of Mara browsing BBI holding a black cat, dresses regular, no jewlz, getting help on all his football decisions.
Presumably that data is available to ownership.
Again, that's if the Giants have a semi-modern business.
Imagine you are the owner of the Giants. You spend millions of dollars every year on athletes, coaches, trainers, facilities, stadium expenses, etc....you go to the games with hopes your team will simply compete and show promise that they are heading in the right direction only to find that they might be the worst team in football. I’d be pissed.
And the only thing I can assume that Mars has contributed to this mess is the whole Eli Manning situation. He didn’t want to cut Eli like Well cut Simms. So he is deciding to pay $23,000,000.00 to Eli to sit the bench and help groom Jones. That money could have been used for OL, FS or pass rushers. Not to mention all the dead money we have.
Mara should have a a long talk with Gettleman and determine what the plan is going forward. I want to know today what steps he plans on taking to fix this team. So far I am not impressed.

But, the initial OP was flawed. JM is heavily involved in running the business. That may include being hands on for the football aspect, but it definitely includes the business aspect. Of course, a lot of BBIers goof off here during working hours, so just having a job doesn't preclude JM from coming here.
Tisch is the one who sits back and collects the money for nothing. He has a career elsewhere, though, so he probably isn't sitting around with nothing better to do.
^Hey, it worked for one guy constantly in the news...
Ha I don't think that would make BBI too happy.

Weirdest thing was Keith Hamilton's brother offering to literally sell me inside info on the Giants.
