Eli cements his place in history

No matter what he does the remainder of his career, nobody can take away Eli Manning's Super Bowl XLII ring or MVP award away from him. "Little brother" Eli, oft-overshadowed by big brother Peyton, emerged by driving the Giants to the game-winning TD as New York topped the now 18-1 Patriots. Plenty of QB's have lost Super Bowls including Rex Grossman, Neil O'Donnell, Joe Kapp, Kerry Collins; none of these players have a household name. But winning a Super Bowl is the biggest step towards any one player being considered great, and Eli cemented his place in history by doing so. Heck, I am not even a Giants fan, but I convinced my wife to go along with my decision to buy a Eli Manning Fathead last night.
