I think there were a lot of other players who were impactful in that being a thing. Should we just induct the whole team into the Hall of Fame for that feat? Maybe everybody who was employed by the Giants that year, whether player or executive or coach or even something tangential like the guy who cleaned the bathrooms in their stadium? There's far too much mediocrity in the Hall of Fame already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joe Namath got in solely because of his ballsy Super Bowl III promise so I'd expect Eli to get in on that same merit Yes and no. Sure, Joe Namath got in for a ballsy SB performance, but Joe Namath didn't play in a league which literally revolved around the QB. Further, I think Namath was an AFL MVP; Eli Manning has never even sniffed that recognition (I'm not sure he's even been a first-team All Pro). Checking his stats, Manning's best season for QB rating gives him a 93.6 (in 2015). That number is below the career rating of all of Peyton Manning, Tom Brady, Aaron Rodgers, Ben Roethlisberger, and even folks like Tony Romo and Matt Ryan. Certainly, he deserves credit for his toughness, but the HOF is supposed to reward careers. I think Namath did more in the league than Eli did, and while it might be questionable that he belongs in the HOF, it is not in regards to Eli. He doesn't belong. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"The trainer, Glen Holt, was charged with one count of felony burglary and battery. He was booked into jail Tuesday evening." "Brown is a suspect in the alleged incident but is not in custody and has not been arrested..." Wait, what? So he AND his trainer assaulted the truck driver who came to move his stuff, but only the trainer was arrested? "A Hollywood police spokesman said Brown was at home with Holt at the time of the incident and they attempted to make contact with him for further questioning but were unsuccessful before leaving for the day." So the cops showed up to question him, but he decided not to talk to them, so they just left? Job well done, 5-0! "Police reiterated that detectives are diligently investigating this case and still plan to make contact with Brown." Yeah... sure... "Brown's home is located in a gated community in Hollywood where multiple neighbors told ESPN they have been fed up with the antics coming from the home, including multiple police encounters this month." So the cops are called to his house on the regular, but won't even arrest him after he assaults someone? Yeah, I agree with MidnightDragon, this dude is gonna kill someone! And when he does, everyone will say the signs were all there and they should have known better but they failed to take proper action and they'll have to do better next time. Yeah right! Do something NOW! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PsychicVibe Posted January 27, 2020 Share Posted January 27, 2020 Matto........that's old news. Brown was arrested and bonded out at $100,000. As a condition of his release, Brown is required to wear a GPS monitor, must undergo drug testing, relinquish his firearms, have no contact with the alleged victim and surrender his passport. Perhaps most notable, the judge also ordered Brown must undergo a mental health evaluation and abide by all of the ensuing recommendations. The judge ruled that eval must take place within 10 days of his release. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could only find one ESPN article about him posting bond. I guess those headlines aren't as alluring, so they got lost. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cop took the weed, but let him off with a traffic ticket. I guess if the DA decides to, after confirming it was weed, he could go after him. But how likely do you think it'd be if you or me got pulled over while speeding with weed and an open alcohol container, that we'd only get a speeding ticket? I'm thinking not likely. On a completely unrelated note... this guy plays in the NFL where the base salary is just shy of half a million a year and he drives a Chrysler 200? Not sure if I should be shocked or applaud the frugality. If he can just learn to keep his drugs and alcohol in the trunk, he'd be in good shape!

And the way the Jets go, I could live to 144 and quite possibly not see them play in a Super Bowl. Let me also use this space to get my Super Bowl pick in so everybody can run to their favorite bookie and bet the other way: 49ers 27, Chiefs 17.

Matto_lsi Posted February 2, 2020 Share Posted February 2, 2020 Well, here it is, Super Sunday. Time to make my final pick of the season... I hope it's a good one! 49ers 37-34 Chiefs: I'm hoping for a Niners blowout, but hope isn't reality. This could go either way, it will probably be close, it might not. Hoping for, and picking, a Niners victory. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
christhedog3 Posted February 2, 2020 Share Posted February 2, 2020 I'll go for Niners 30-24 Chiefs. I'd rather see the Chiefs win, and they certainly can, I just think the Niners have been more solid in the postseason. KC has had to fight out of a hole in both their games, tougher to do that in a SB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
