Eli Manning will get this next last chance, this next last chance Phil Simms never got, and because of the essence of the man and what he has meant to his franchise and this town, you root for one last hurrah for him, a dream ending with the dream team he never wanted to leave in his adopted dream town.
You root for Eli Manning if you understand what it means to a franchise to have a gentleman as its face for 15 years, the Pride of the Giants for this generation the way Frank Gifford was the pride of an earlier generation.
