RT @wendythurm: Giants majority owner Charles Johnson is a right-wing billionaire. He consistently donates to the most right-wing politicians. That’s who he is. These occasional mea culpas are for show. Giants fans have decisions to make about whether to financially support the team. https://t.co/ExBYo12wvO -

Thank you to Mr Johnson & the Giants for their commitment to justice & healing.” https://t.co/lFoz7jvQGd -
Charles Johnson released another statement through the Giants in which he says he requested a refund for the contribution he made to Lauren Boebert’s campaign. (Not sure what the hell it matters at this point, since Boebert won her race and is now a member of Congress.)

Oh course if Larese had zero, Wilt still had itKevin Durant (72) and James Harden (66) have combined for 138 points in their first 2 games as Nets teammates. Per @EliasSports , that's 2nd-most in a duo's first two games with a franchise. The most is 151 by Wilt Chamberlain (139) and York Larese (12) on the 1961 Warriors. https://t.co/TCVMhC5MHn -
