I woke up with a bad hangover and just lost my cool. It isn't really that I hate the Giants so much. It is that I dislike Eli so much. The way he came into the NFL draft is what started it for me. I believe the Chargers or some other team was looking to draft him and he threw a hissy fit basically saying he wouldn't play for that team and he wanted to go to the Giants. Oh I'm so privileged because my last name is Manning and my daddy and big bro were NFL quarterbacks. To me he reeks of mediocrity and only won two super bowls because of lucky catches such as the helmet grab. That isn't skill to throw a shit pass up to some receiever and hope they make one hell of a catch. I'm also sick of announcers basically wanting to suck his dick especially in the 4th quarter. Tired of hearing well its the 4th and Eli is so known for game winning 4th quarter drives. That is weird because the few times I've watch his "game winning" drives this year in the 4th quarter usually resulted in an interception. |
sigh... If you really believe Eli has won two super bowls solely due to throwing 2 (incredible) passes then I have some oceanfront property in Arizona to sell you. How quickly we forget or choose to look over, all the late game heroics Eli did in both the 2007 and 2011 seasons to help get his team to both superbowls and the finesse he had in both super bowls to keep the team in the game. Eli has the second most come from behind wins out of all the current starting QBs (Only behind Brady)! Of course the announcers hype up his 4th quarter potential.
inb4 "The defense carried him to both super bowls", right becuase in 2007 the Giants trialed in every post season game and cameback to win all of them just becuase of the defense and in 2011 when the Giants had the 25th overall ranked defense and 32nd ranked run offense Eli did nothing to get the Giants to the super bowl (major eye roll). Not trying to argue your hate becuase we can hate who ever or whatever we want, (I will always hate Brady!) but lets be real, Eli is a guaranteed hall of famer and rightfully deserves it with his impressive stats. Eli is a good NFL QB and an above average QB when the games matter the most.
Although I totally can see why one would think Eli is buns if you solely watched this season because he is playing like trashhhhhhhh right now.
