Well this is just disappointing news, but I get it. NY Giants co-owner Steve Tisch spoke with TMZ yesterday and explained why we will never see the G-Men on “Hard Knocks.”
Check out what he had to say & let us know what you think…
Via TMZ:
James Harrison might be on to something, ’cause “Hard Knocks” is the kind of show that can DESTROY a football team … so says NY Giants co-owner Steve Tisch.
Tisch — and the entire Giants organization — have made it clear the team will NEVER agree to participate in the HBO docu-series, and yesterday in L.A., Tisch explained why.
“I don’t think it brings anything to the team,” Tisch said … “It’s a bit of a distraction and I think it’s sort of misleading for the players … especially the young guys.”
Tisch continued, “Even though It comes off as a documentary, you’re asking young athletes to perform. Perform on the field … don’t perform in the locker room for a TV show.”
“I don’t think it’s in the players’ best interest.”
Clearly, the Cincinnati Bengals don’t feel the same way. They’re currently participating on the show for the SECOND time.
