Good morning, New York Giants fans!
The alliance between the Mara Family and the Tisch Family has, by and large, been the gold standard for all such partnership agreements.

5. New York Giants. The New York Giants have struggled to find their footing in the 2020s for various reasons, but high-profile injuries have been among their biggest hurdles.
