– Bob Papa, radio voice of the New York Giants since 1995
“When I first visited the Meadowlands, there was an air in the building unlike anything I’d experienced. Having the opportunity to join the Giants meant embracing a culture that demanded accountability and selflessness. It was all about the team, or as Coach Coughlin would say: ‘Team First, Team Last, Team Always!’ We were charged with upholding the standard of excellence. Everyone within the organization had a sense of ownership and learned from their respective roles in order to further the agenda, which was winning at the highest level. A lot goes into making the memories that we all celebrate, players and fans alike. Miracle Moments takes us on a journey to unpack those memories while capturing the essence of the proudest franchise in pro football.”
