Giants owners on passing of Art Modell
Posted by on September 6, 2012 – 10:19 amThe following statement is from Giants President and Chief Executive Officer John Mara on the passing of former Browns/Ravens owner Art Modell:
“Art Modell was one of the greatest owners in the history of the NFL. He contributed in so many ways to the success of this League and he deserves a place in Canton. More importantly, he was a decent man and a great friend to my family. We will miss him dearly.”
Chairman and Executive Vice President Steve Tisch:
“Art Modell was a visionary, a deal-maker and a friend. And he possessed a marvelous sense of humor. Our league and my father and our family benefitted from his great qualities and foresight. It was Art who formally introduced my father to Wellington Mara, which ultimately led to my father purchasing 50 percent of the Giants franchise. For that, and for Art’s good nature, we will always be grateful.”
