New York Giants head coach Ben McAdoo finally addressed the elephant (-sized suit - heyo!) in the room Friday, after being relentlessly mocked on social media over the ill-fitting suit he wore to his introductory press conference.
McAdoo's excuse? He didn't have time to get a suit tailored and he's lost some weight since last wearing the one he had, according to Tom Rock of Newsday.
The New York papers are already having a field day:
Newsday's Saturday Back Page.
Unlike his suit, Giants believe coach Ben McAdoo is a perfect fit.

How much weight have you lost? McAdoo was asked, in what he appeared to believe was a Johnny Carson style "How Hot Is It?" Q&A:
"About a third grader," McAdoo responded.
A third grader would have a better suit.
