Mara was a bedrock and voice of reason in the NFL. I fear without him the NFL will slip into the same pit that the NBA and to a lesser degree MLB are in. We need more Mara's.AWB

Judging from what everyone is saying, the Duke's children (three of whom are working with the Giants organization right now; John K. Mara {Executive V.P. and Chief Operating Officer}, Chris Mara {Vice President of Player Evaluation}, and Francis X. Mara {Director of Promotions}) carry on his values.

It's pretty likely John might be Well's successor. I don't think we have anything to fear. Just as long as other teams can mantain a degree of civility and class as well. I mean, Well would invite Tom Landry to dinner before a Giants-Cowboys game. You don't SEE a team owner inviting an opposing team's coach for dinner anymore.
