New York Giants owner John Mara isn't a household name around the country. In the state of New York, however, he's about as famous as one can get. It is why it comes as a relatively shocking revelation that he, despite likely being regularly hounded, has been responding to letters sent in by fans.
According to Mark Sanchez (not that one) of the New York Post (this one), Mara has been replying to fans who have written him letters expressing their displeasure with a 1-8 season.
One fan took to the mean streets of Twitter to share the response he received from John Mara.
“I have your letter. Nobody is more upset than I am with our performance so far,” he wrote. “I learned a long time ago that the season is a marathon, not a sprint, and things can look a whole lot different in December than they do.
“We will evaluate everything at the end of the season, with a full body of information, before we make any major decisions. In the meantime all we are focused on right now is trying to win our next game.
“Thank you for writing and for your loyal support of the Giants.”
What I would like to know is if this is a generic, template formatted response or if the Giants owner is literally writing all of these responses himself. If it is the latter, that's a pretty neat gesture by a guy who doesn't really need to answer to fans in such a way.
