Keidel: The Book On Eli
I've been giggling spastically since I heard Eli Manning compare himself favorably to Tom Brady. When you're not the best quarterback in your family – and Eli might be third behind Papa Archie – you're not in Brady's class.

I've been giggling spastically since I heard Eli Manning compare himself favorably to Tom Brady. When you're not the best quarterback in your family – and Eli might be third behind Papa Archie – you're not in Brady's class.
Eli Manning created a bit of a stir this week when he declared himself a Top 5 quarterback and put himself in the same class as Tom Brady. Jets quarterback Mark Sanchez didn't have to make such comparisons -- his coach did it for him.
Is Eli Manning a top 5 quarterback? The Giants quarterback certainly thinks so, or at least that's what he said in an interview Tuesday. From his big show at Giants camp on Wednesday, Mike Francesa asked Manning, who had 25 interceptions in 2010, to clarify the remarks.
When Robinson Cano hit a 3-run homer last night in Kansas City, the blast gave the Yankees an 8-5 lead and gave Craig some material for Jerry Recco's first update of the morning.
Calling the players' offer "fair for both sides," star quarterbacks Tom Brady, Peyton Manning and Drew Brees — plaintiffs in an antitrust suit against the NFL which also includes the Giants' Osi Umenyiora — said Wednesday "it is time" to wrap up negotiations on a deal to end the league's lockout.
Dark clouds no longer dominate the NFL horizon. Rays of sunshine have broken through as owners and players make progress in labor talks. So what could cause rain to fall, washing away the chance of a deal? Plenty.
NFL players are defending their decision to disband the union, saying employers cannot force workers to unionize, and dissolution is "not akin to turning off a light switch."
Rex Ryan never has been someone who passes up a good punch line, particularly at the expense of the Patriots. He was in fine form Tuesday during the NFL's coaches breakfast.
The NFL's locked-out players wrote back to Commissioner Roger Goodell on Saturday, responding to his letter to them by saying: "Your statements are false."
An April 6 hearing date has been set in the federal antitrust lawsuit filed by players against the NFL.
As of today there is no union, there is a lawsuit with such famous plaintiffs as Tom Brady, Peyton Manning and Drew Brees, and there is a lockout. Here's how the case will proceed.
There will be an NFL season in 2011. That's what many of the owners and lots of players are saying. Even though labor talks collapsed, the union dissolved itself, and star players asked for a preliminary injunction to prevent a lockout hours before the league even implemented one.
Unable to decide how to divvy up $9 billion a year, NFL owners and players put the country's most popular sport in limbo Friday hours before their contract expired. The union decertified; the league imposed a lockout.
Antonio Cromartie is at it again. This time, he threatened Seahawks quarterback Matt Hasselbeck in a Thursday night Twitter tussle.
Less than two weeks after he used the same obscenity about Tom Brady, Antonio Cromartie took on both sides in the league's unresolved labor talks, saying they "need to get their (expletive) together and get it done."
It's unanimous. And Tom Brady has outdone even himself. The record-setting Patriots quarterback was the leading vote-getter for The Associated Press 2010 NFL All-Pro Team.
After the Jets' latest disappointing playoff loss, New York fans were left wondering: Who, or what, is to blame?

With the attention turning to Jets-Steelers and the upset of Sunday fading, let's take one more look back at the events of Sunday by handing out some hardware.
With the Patriots' season coming to an early end after being favored to win the Super Bowl, there was only one person I thought could express the devastation and depression stemming from New England the best.
The New England Patriots know plenty about the teams playing for a berth in the Super Bowl. They beat all four of them during the regular season. Once the postseason starts, though, the Patriots don't stick around very long. At least not anymore.
Let the pundits with their gadgets and graphics tell you one story. Let them cackle in clichés about yards, punts, and field position. Let your eyes and your soul tell you the true story.
The old "Same Old Jets" would certainly have lost. In fact, they might not have even been playing. Surely, the old "Same Old Jets" would never have gotten past Peyton Manning and may have even choked away a playoff spot.
Soon after New York stunned the Patriots with a 28-21 upset Sunday, they were already wagging their tongues at the next team standing in the way of their Super Bowl goal, the Steelers.
The field is set for the conference championship games. And both No. 1 seeds are done.
