Tom The Giants Fan

[MetalHead]

It's they way he entered the league, not what his father or brother did or had. A million kids would kill for a shot at the NFL, because of his last name he was basically able to hold the process hostage.

Nonsense.
A million kids may kill for a shot in the NFL,but talent is what gets you in.
How many INTs Manning had on this playoff run?
Eli played amazing football down the stretch,always keeping his team in the fight.Not making crucial mistakes,regardless of where he came from.
Do not let the facts get in the way of your story.

My penchant for underdogs finds me pulling for the Giants to upset... yeah, right - like that'll happen.

 

[MetalHead]

thanks to our bone-headeness

Sad,but true.

I don't care what he did during the playoff run, he mad a mockery of the system and it's history, it acted like a spoiled brat and had to be forced to take the stage and then called out the Chargers and the orginization on live TV. The facts are the story.

 

[justbob]

He's the classiest of all of our rivals fans.

I hate it but to him I say congrats. If we can't convert him to a cowboys fan, at least I hope he enjoys this improbable ride.

You should care what he did during his playoff run because your team,the number 1 seeded team in the NFC was one and done by the hands of Eli and Co.
Are you aware that John Elway,Cornelius Bennett and Gary Zimmerman refused to play for the teams that drafted them?...were they spoon fed players?...did they have famous brothers and fathers in the league?
No they did not.

No they did not.

They also did not make a mockery of the process during the draft. Elway with drew his name and had another sport to turn to. He did not accept an invite to the draft and act like a spoiled rich kid while he was there knowing damn well there was going to be a situation.

None of the players you mentioned acted in the way Eli did, none of them were invited to the draft and try to show up the process. Bo Jackson is another. They all had enough class to either hold out and not sign with the club or turn to a different sport. Eli made a scene on national TV, his father jumped in and started speeking for him, it was a disaster. Eli should of stayed home but all he was worried about was gettin ghis mug in front of the TV and making sure he could as much attention as he could.

I still don't care what he did this playoff run. I don't understand how that has anything to do with when he was drafted.

this is such a pointless argument

 

[Big Dakota]

Gotta give it up to the Giants. They went on the road for three and took it home. Grats!

 

[SDogo]

this is such a pointless argument

I really don't think so. I think Eli is a perfect example of everything that is wrong with the NFL today.

 

[MetalHead]

this is such a pointless argument

It is pointless because really,his case holds no water,he is just hatin'.
It all started because he did not wanna see a "spoon fed" QB win it all.
Talk about pointless.

There's no other way to say it: Archie Manning has magic sperm.

I definitely see your point, Artie but HOL has a point, too...

How many Tony Romo's have not been given a chance because their last name isn't Manning, Sims, etc...

Both of you have valid points...

For Tom, I hate your team, but you are a class guy... congrats to you as a good fan (although you hang too much at extremeskins)...

Dude,drop it.
He is Eli Manning,spoon fed and he is going to the Super Bowl.
If he was Eli Sacamano,beat the 4th,1st and 2nd seed in the NFC,he would still be going to Glendale.
Let go already....he beat our team,he beat the Pack at Lambeau,he has scoreboard over the NFC.

I'm not taking away what he did but it does not mean I have to respect him.
