Who would have guessed that Eli Manning could surpass his brother, Peyton Manning on the pay scale?  Well, he just did.

The New York Giants have given Eli Manning a 6 year extension for $97 million.  Wow.  That’s a lot of green.  But apparently the franchise thinks Eli is worth every penny,

“He is a franchise quarterback,” Giants general manager Jerry Reese said Wednesday. “He has done everything we asked him to do. He has come in, taken a lot of flack from you guys (the media) and he just keeps going. He does what we ask him on the field and he does what we ask him to do off the field. He is a good football player.”

Congrats to Eli Manning.  That is one sweet deal you just landed.  Woo hoo!  This gets me pumped up for football season!  It’s starting this month!
