Giants can’t make the same ‘Hard Knocks’ spotlight mistake that Jets did
NY Post
There was a time when John Mara, the Giants owner and CEO, said in jest (we think) that he would be dead before the Giants would ever agree to HBO featuring his team on its popular and polarizing “Hard Knocks’’ series.
Based his aversion to transparency when it comes to the inner workings of his team, Giants head coach Brian Daboll likely welcomed the “Hard Knocks’’ idea and the HBO cameras the way Bill Belichick might welcome the paparazzi aboard his boat “VIII Rings’’ to follow him and his 23-year-old cheerleader Jordon Hudson for a day.
You get the idea.
And yet … here we are.
On Tuesday night at 9 p.m., “Hard Knocks: Offseason with the New York Giants” airs the first of its five-part series.
Distractions, anyone?

Cade Cunningham, almost inarguably the best player in the East this season, is likely out for the remainder of the regular season. That’s the word out of Detroit following the depressing news that Cunningham punctured a lung when he took a knee to his side Tuesday from Washington’s Tre Johnson while chasing a loose ball.

Wednesday was another positive day at Yankees camp. For the first time since March 6, 2025 — an outing in which he knew “something wasn’t right,” which began a weeks-long saga that ended on the operating table for Tommy John surgery — Gerrit Cole was back on a mound and facing hitters in game action.
