  • July 25, 2022
    All those years of being booed and heckled in Philadelphia Orlando Cepeda Jersey while playing for the Giants finally got to Eli Manning.

    The two-time Super Bowl champion and his brother Peyton were hosting their latest MegaCast edition of "Monday Night Football," and they, with guest and former Eagles defensive linemanChris Long, recalled what it was like playing in Philly.

    Manning faced the Eagles 31 times in his career and was 10-21 against them, with 54 touchdown pa ses to 34 interceptions, so he had his fair share of run-ins with their fans.

    It only makes sense, then,that Manning would jokingly Paul DeJong Jersey show what happened to him and return the favor to all those watching at home.

    (Warning: Obscene gesture.)

    Of course, Manning's gesture Bob Gibson Jersey and apology made the rounds. Even one of his ESPN colleagues got in on the fun.

    Eli having to read card 99 for double birding the E2 crowd is a dream.

    for context: you have cards with promos and reads on them in every broadcast booth. card 99 is the apology card in case you do a bad on air. they now leave space for the part where Nick Castellanos hits a homer into left center

    During his career with New York, Manning was known for his folksy Chris Carpenter Jersey personality and charm, so for him to finally let loose and dish it as well as he took it was a far cry from his playing persona Stan Musial Jersey .

    Fans of the ManningCast will have to wait another month to see the brothers in action again (Week 7, Saints-Seahawks). Who knows what antics they might be up to between now and then or plan for upon their return?
