Ali Loves Eli ~ Go Giants!

I have no words, so I asked yogurt eating Alison in her Giant cap to say a few, “ Last night the Giants won their fifth consecutive Seventh Game of the World Series, Jets, Dallas, Atlanta, Packers & 49ers. Eli Manning stood in against a terrific defense and made the third downs, threw it away when he needed to, and shoveled a few to backs to avoid a couple of sacks. I have to finish my yogurt but later I’ll have more to say on the matter.”

21 years later, Alison continues to wear the Giant snow hat I found on the football field at Yankee Stadium in 1968 after the last game of the year when they let the fans run free in a steady snowfall.  Tommy McNamara and I had the time of our lives that day.  

In 1987, I had a few drinks with Carl White from Channel 5 after the Giants beat the Broncos at a hotel bar in California. I met Carl again at the 1987 draft in New York and he interviewed me when the Giants drafted Mark Ingram. Dad taped the interview on the VCR.

Back to Alison for a final word, “On Manning, let me leave you with this:  He threw a bullet 17 yard TD to Manningham on a third and fifteen, against a relentless 49er’s D. Terry Bradshaw and Joe Buck you can eat Eli’s socks.”
