Did you see Eli Manning on Letterman last night? He was great. He was funny, clever and charming. After almost a decade in the league and two Superbowl titles, it seems the Giants QB has finally found his personality.
It’s time for Eli to put that personality on display and follow in the footsteps of Derek Jeter, Joe Montana, Tom Brady and, yes, his brother Peyton.

Talk about reversal of fortunes.
Who’d a’ thunk at the start of NFL 2011 it’d be Manning-the-Younger (Eli) hoisting the hardware in February as opposed to Manning-the-Elder (Peyton), whose career would be teetering on the brink? Not many, and even fewer Giants’ fans and East Coast media.

“I just don’t agree with the decision to start John Beck,” he said shortly after the switch was made, when virtually all Redskins fans were still on board with the Beck Era.
