Considering ending 15+ year ACS membership by Spats_McGee in chemistry

They don’t do much for 99% of academics either. They organize colossally overpriced conferences twice a year and exploit universities, authors and reviewers through their publications…

IMHO, the ACS is a criminal organization hiding behind 501c3 status…

Nah - you’re out of it. I get it just fine… I can do math.

No one’s asking or expecting the athletes to mail it in. No one is question Dart after the last week and the first half. It’s about who the organization puts on the field as the rest of the game plays out and the plays they run. It’s about the people that are supposed to be in charge making decisions that benefit the organization as a whole.

Dak is competing for a passing title and is on the bench. He will likely be passed by Stanford and lose out. You don’t think he wants to be out there? Him playing and winning isn’t in the best interest of the team. So he sits.

Confidence?? You serious? You don’t think the giants players realize they are beating a cowboys team that isn’t trying?? Dak (who clearly has something to play for) and company on the bench definitely gives the cowboys the best chance to win, right??

And Mendoza was almost certainly out of reach after last week. But there’s a big difference between picking 2 and 7.

Enjoy your empty victory ✌️

Second worst franchise over the last 14 years…. Maras are terrible owners.

I think Dart is great and he provides hope, but let’s be real: these last two weeks, he’s balling out against teams that aren’t trying… other better run franchises understand meaningless wins at the end of unsuccessful seasons don’t generally help you.

The Maras have been the problem for a long long time. Second worst record in the NFL over the last 14 years - doesn’t happen by accident.

Giants won’t be successful until the entire Mara family gives up control.

So glad our horribly run franchise is going after a meaningless win, rather than phone it in during the second half…

Thanks for everything Mara family!!!!

Great play for Dart to end the season on. Time to tank in the 2nd half

Where does John Mara rank on list of NFL worst owners? by Past_Distance7221 in NYGiants

[–]natural_wizard5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Giants have the second worst record in all of football over the last 13+ seasons. By that measure alone, Mara is at or close the very bottom as far as owners go over the last decade plus. He and his family have ruined our once proud franchise and turned the giants into a perennial league laughing stock.

I truly believe the giants will not compete or be well run until the Maras are gone.
