Eli Manning's Wedding Reception

Manning "Reception" Is Everything You'd Imagine It Would Be

Sadly, there are no Village People moments like Brady Quinn had at his sister's wedding to A.J. Hawk, but if you do scroll through the lovely photo album, there are plenty of Manning-like moments that will clearly be cherished always. The New York Giants' quarterback appears to be coming out of his shell a little bit — that's what a Super Bowl victory will do to a man. More »

Eli Manning And Wife In Desperate Need Of A Queer-Eyeing


The evolution of Eli Manning from underachieving dim-expressioned yokel to high society Super Bowl hero has hit a rough patch, as the fashionistas of the New York Post have lashed out at Eli and his new bride, Abby McGrew, for their questionable fashion sense during the recent snob-infested Contemporaries Art Party and Auction.

The Happiest Place On Earth, After Mom's Favorite Antique Store

For the last post before Mother's Day, it would only be appropriate to feature the professional athlete who's the closest to his mother. That would be Super Bowl MVP Buster Bluth Eli Manning, who finally took his requisite parade float down Main Street of Disneyland on Wednesday after missing it in February due to the fake-sounding excuse of "airport delays".

    Manning Vs. Brady, Round II

    OK, I might see Tom Brady wearing Ermenegildo Zegna clothing, but Eli Manning, I don't think so. Isn't he more of a Miller's Outpost kind of guy? Anyway, they were both on hand for the big Zegna store opening in Manhattan on Thursday, or so we are led to believe. Mr. Manning here actually looks very much like a cardboard cutout, no? More »

    Eli Manning Plays With Your Perceptions Of Reality


    As amazing as Eli Manning was last night, it might have behooved someone on the Giants, whether it was a PR person or just an assistant coach, to inform him that when you win the Super Bowl, you're supposed to take your pads off before you put on the championship T-shirt. Doofy fella kept those pads on the whole night. We bet he's still wearing them. More »

    Your Shocking Super Bowl Champion New York Giants


    OK, we could watch football for the next 20 years, and we're not sure we'd ever see a play as amazing and improbable and insane and ridiculous and surreal and let's-face-it-gang batshit crazy as watching Eli Manning escape that sack and David Tyree make that catch. And then Manning finds Plaxico ... and ... well, what can else can you say but: Holy shit. Eli Manning, guys: Eli Freaking Manning.

    Jesus: We need to sit down.

    (We're just going to revel in Eli Manning — Eli Manning! — becoming an immortal in the span of 15 minutes for the rest of the night, but those looking for their Patriots schadenfreude will find it after the jump.)

    Another Piece Of the Eli Manning Childhood Puzzle Falls Into Place

    The front-and-center photo of the Manning family in 1996 is worth the price of admission. The fact that this particular story is about how a young Eli Manning learned from his mom only sweetens the pot. But that's not all. Heavens, far from it. More »

    Both Teams' Fans Already Assuming Victory

    We have arrived in beautiful Phoenix, Arizona, and it's still raining. What the heck is going on? We thought this was Arizona? Anyway, while looking at this poster online — and we are trying to imagine the sort of fragile, sensitive boy that might put this on their wall — we got to thinking about the top email we received throughout the night: The Patriots already think they've won!

    Is Eli Manning Today's Joe Namath? Lord, We Hope Not


    If it's true that every generation gets the hero they deserve ... woe to us, America, because there's a very real possibility that Eli Manning could be today's Joe Namath. That's a somewhat terrifying concept. More »

    Eli Manning Sent To Room With No TV

    So Fox affiliate WLUK TV-Green Bay has this convoluted plan to get under Eli Manning's skin this weekend, as you may have heard. Someone told station GM Jay Zollar that Manning is fond of Seinfeld, so Zollar is pulling the show from the station's schedule on Saturday. Remember when no one cared what Eli Manning watched? Wasn't that just, like, two weeks ago? Said Zollar: More »

    The Lonesome Tony Romo


    Tony Romo is taking all the heat today — it's gonna get to the point that he's going to want to stop wanting to even make the playoffs — but the Cowboys' collapse yesterday was a true team effort. Despite the rosy denials of Cowboys boosters, this was a devastating loss in every possible way. (Look how it made T.O. cry!) Heck, the loss so disoriented coach Wade Phillips that he lost his car keys. That has to be humiliating. And that final "drive" by the Cowboys, in a way, was far more gruesome an indictment of Tony Romo than that botched snap ever was. More »
