More NY
If you're in NYC today, avoid the Rockefeller Center area. NYC Giants head Wellington Mara's funeral is today. He was a big supporter of conservative causes and I had the honor of meeting him once and his graciousness shone through him. Rest in peace you man of men.

He was? Another reason I'm glad to be a Giants fan.

And admire him for his conservatism if you want, but he did a lot to make the NFL the lucrative business it is today. Revenue sharing? His idea.
