John Mara: Hypocrite
After the Ray Rice video:
Mara said in 2014 after NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell banned Ray Rice following the video of his punching his then-girlfriend in an elevator? He said this:
“There is no place for domestic violence in our sport or in our society, and we are committed to doing our part to prevent such heinous acts going forward.”
In December of that same year, with the new personal conduct policy in place, Mara said this to Jenny Vrentas of MMQB:
“I think we’re responding the right way. We need to do a better job handling these issues, and I think this is a step in the right direction. We want our standards to be higher, we want there to be more education, and we want the penalties to be tougher, because we want to do what we can to put an end to domestic violence and sexual assault. These are big issues in our society, and we need to do our part to make sure we are doing the right things to educate our own staff, our own players, and to try to eradicate these awful issues.
With Josh Brown, who admitted to Mara that he (Brown) had abused his wife? Let's re-sign him!
Stay classy, Giants.
