Eli "Rich" Man(ning)
Eli Manning’s contract extension will be for six years and $97.5 million, with $35 million guaranteed. Making him the highest paid player in the NFL!
So, “Who looks confused now??”
But as usual, being a 28 year old quarterback, in his prime with a Super Bowl ring and excellent breeding, Eli has his haters, who are asking, “Is Eli really worth it?”
Well, let’s see.
In just four years Eli Manning already had more Super Bowl rings than the entire history of the Eagles franchise. (No, that never gets old!)
Sure, Eli started, like any other Giant QB, since 1997, running the ball up the middle (and the season into the ground) with #21, so the little girl running back, wouldn’t cry. Tiki questioned his leadership skills, his own father spoofed a commercial where he traded him for Matt Leinhert (I always wanted a lefty!), others laughed at his blank expression and people wondered if he’d ever be as good as his commercialized brother.
But now, Eli Manning says, “Step aside big brother, because the Citizen Eco-drive is unstoppable as Eli Manning!”
Sure, Peyton has 100 more commercials, but his little brother won a Super Bowl, got his own commercial, trumped big bro’s contract and did it all….with a full head of hair!
If Archie is good, maybe one of his sons well let him see what it feels like to wear a Super Bowl ring and I can imagine “check time” conversation, looks something like this…
As for Tiki Barber, he couldn’t be reached for a comment (for once!).
Did I mention Eli finished last years regular season, 12-4 completing 289 of 479 pass attempts for 3,238 yards and 21 touchdowns...with a run-based offense?
So what does Eli have to say to all the critics barking "Eli may be the highest paid quarterback in th NFL, but he isn't the best!?"
"I am not only the highest paid player in the NFL but in the 90 year history of the league! I am sorry, what was the second part of that sentence, again??"
