Chris Christie: ‘Smart’ Peyton Manning wouldn’t make Eli’s mistake

It didn’t take long for Chris Christie to pounce on a Giants’ weakness.

The New Jersey governor and diehard Cowboys fan practically laughed in the face of the newest evidence that could incriminate Eli Manning in the Giants’ fake sports memorabilia scheme. The Post reported on Thursday Manning turned over emails in a court filing last week that suggest he was involved in the sale of inauthentic game equipment.

“He got caught,” Christie said on WFAN’s “Boomer & Carton” show Friday morning, a show he often guest-hosts on the side, before questioning the Giants quarterback’s character by comparing him with his brother.
