Do you think Eli was rooting for his Brother or against the Jets?

  1. Both - He's a Manning after all and he's a Giant first.

    I'm rooting for Eli to finish his career with one more ring than his brother (2-1).

    If I had a brother playing in a conference title game, whether I am a pro football player or not, I'm gonna scream my ass off rooting for him.

    If he did anything else, he'd be a jealous dirt bag.

    Traitor? Being a traitor implies that he ever had any reason to have allegiance to the Jets. Location doesn't mean anything.

    Holy shit. Mad at Eli for cheering for his brother? Seriously?

    I'm a Yankees fan. I wish Fenway would burn to the ground. If my brother or son played for the Red Sox though? Screw that, I want them to win the World Series every damned year.

    If Eli wasn't cheering for Peyton I'd say there was a real problem. Same with Archie.

    if you guys are really angry that the guy was rooting for his brother and happy he was winning i think you may need to readjust your priorities in life.

    it is a shame to get worked up over something as meaningless as this.

    basically anyone who wouldn't be cheering for their brother in that situation would be an a-hole.

    I don't think Eli Manning is the type to root against anyone, honestly. Bet he wasn't rooting for Mark Sanchez, though.

    Who cares if I backed the Giants. You honestly wanted to see the Patriots win a 4th title? and dominate longer. Now that we look at it, the Giants might have delivered the final knock out blow on the Patriots Dynasty. They haven't been the same since, which in turn helps us.

    Screw Eli, nothing beats the look on his face after a horrible INT.
