Shame on you. โ Vincent Beese, 60-year lifelong NY Giants fan and season ticket holder. #NYGiants #JaxsonDart #PoliticsHasNoPlaceInSports
Without that apology, I will sell my season tickets and walk away from a team I've loved my entire life. That breaks my heart. But politics has NO place in professional sports. Do better.
Jaxson Dart has embarrassed Giants fans around the world. I'm asking โ pleading โ for a public apology. Not a PR statement. A genuine acknowledgment that this was wrong and hurtful to a large portion of your fanbase.
Think about Eli Manning. We all know Eli and his family are conservative โ yet he kept it private. He understood that when you wear the Giants uniform, you represent EVERY fan, regardless of politics. That's the standard.
I've been thinking about Full-cycle sales lately and have formed a strong POV, but first would like to get some quick feedback. Please also add your comments on this topic. Thanks! lnkd.in/g3-qGr6f
