Who needs a private jet to fly: Not Schoen

The Giants wanted to make a move for Joe Schoen and there was no time to waste. They booked a flight for him from Buffalo to Newark, N.J. and, well, as anyone who waits until the last minute to make travel arrangements knows, you get what you get and you don’t get upset.

“Unfortunately the only thing available was a middle seat in the rear of the plane next to the restroom,” Giants co-owner John Mara said Wednesday, the day the team introduced Schoen as its new general manager.

“He never complained a bit about it, so I like him already,” Mara said.

That would be thankful for a free medium Pepsi unlike our ingrate Fran base - John Mara
One of the great stories from Acorsi’s book

Is how he asked the Tisch’s to use their private plane to get him to Shockey’s pro day and instead they sent him on a rickety prop jet.
Fan base not Fran base

Didn't Peyton Hillis walk 10 miles on his own to get himself a pizza when he got to Jersey or something along those lines? Not the best player in the world but lol I always liked that story, if I remember it correctly.

The Giants don’t have access to a jet? No wonder we suck.

LMFAO! Exactly.

Don’t at least have a netjets account for their top execs? Embarrassing. To me that’s a no brainer expense to have my top guys scouting all over the country.
Flight

Is like 58 minutes.
Even John Mara flies commercial  
56n11bestever : 1/26/2022 8:57 pm : link
I was flying to Chicago out of westchester airport and ahead of me on the TSA line was John. I looked and was like it could not be John why would he fly commercial. We chatted a little in the terminal. Just surprising he flies commercial vs a private plane for NFL events.
