Giants owner makes light of Tebowmania
Fresh off another Super Bowl win, Giants co-owner John Mara could not resist a dig at the Jets and Tebowmania on Sunday.
Asked if New York was big enough to handle both the Giants and Tim Tebow, Mara joked the Jets would not be the only local team holding a news conference Monday to announce the signing of a backup quarterback.
"I don't know [if the city is big enough], but the David Carr press conference will be tomorrow afternoon, too," Mara said upon arriving at the NFL meetings in Palm Beach, Fla.
Jets owner Woody Johnson did not respond to the poke from his local rival, but Rex Ryan did.
"You can say anything you want, because they're world champions," Ryan said. "That's all fine and dandy ... They accomplished what I wanted to, but instead of being the best team in New York, they were the best team in football. But we'll take a swing at them."
