WHITE PLAINS -- While Tom Brady's four-game suspension was being announced and his reputation sullied for conduct "detrimental to the integrity" of the NFL, the only quarterback ever to beat him in a Super Bowl -- and do it twice! -- stood in a local restaurant blissfully holding an adorable puppy.
Giants quarterback Eli Manning was addressing the crowd at a sponsorship event for Guiding Eyes for the Blind when the league announced its suspension of Brady and other discipline against the Patriots. The team was fined a record $1 million and docked next year's first-round draft pick as well as a fourth-rounder in 2017.
