6. Sounds like my grandpa lol. Not to be confused with those backstabbing New York baseball Giants.

8. “I wanted this job. I think I told you that Mr. Mara? I wanted this job.” Here we go boys! LFG!

9. We may never lose another football game.

10. Welcome Coach.

11. If the baseball Giants would’ve stayed in New York, I would’ve been a baseball Giants, football Giants, Rangers, and Knicks fan. Instead, here I am today with the Mets, Giants, Rangers, and Knicks.

22. Just dropped to my knees in the laundromat

23. He has the same intense love for football without coming off as weird as his brother does about it. It’s great to finally have someone leading the team who immediately commands the respect of everyone in the org

24. I LOVE HIM ALREADY. This is real life. We get to have this energy for the next 5 years, I’m still very hopeful about how we can look next season with this man in charge.

25. That’s probably because the New York Baseball Giants existed

26. Listening to him speak here he reminds me of a super cool science teacher you’d have in highschool that every kid loved and wanted to put in work for lmao

27. I told my wife I’m busy this afternoon…I have to watch the press conference a more times. Still can’t believe we have a real coach. The players must be so pumped.

28. Do you think when the Giants come to town …

32. Ravens fan here. Treat him well! John is an absolute gem. So stoked he is coaching you guys.

    Giants have my NFC team for a while now, but now I’ll be rooting for them 100x harder with Harbs at the helm!

33. And people saying “maybe he regrets the timing with the Buffalo job now open” – please The Athletic write up is drama – ohhh it almost didn’t happen here is a play-by-play. Okay.

    He was always coming to NYG and the NYG were always going to bend to whatever structure he wanted in place. The “wait” was posturing for posturing sake. They don’t call it a dick swinging contest for nothing. Egos will Ego.

34. Mods need to update the subreddit name

36. FOOTBALL

37. When they first started playing it was at the Polo Grounds stadium which also housed the NY Baseball Giants . That’s why there’s a distinction. Also it was the only outdoor stadium on the island of Manhattan once the baseball Giants left for San Francisco the Giants moved across the River to play in Yankee Stadium and the Polo Grounds were torn down for apartment buildings

38. This is what we needed. A coach who runs a strict program to keep the players disciplined, but also someone who’s adapted to the times. Love to see him making changes to our analytics and facilities already. Really hope he can win us a chip or multiple

39. Bring back the old jersey and helmets!
