Calling the shots

From Sideline Chatter

Punter Jeff Feagles, formerly known as No. 10 in your New York Giants program, has agreed to switch to No. 17 this season so top draft pick Eli Manning can wear 10.

“Had Feagles balked at the offer,” speculated Jeff Gordon of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch, “Archie Manning would probably have ordered the Giants to trade Feagles to the San Diego Chargers.”

But Archie isn’t the only Manning manning the phone lines.

“I received a call from Eli Manning the other day,” reader Dominador Nazareno told the San Francisco Chronicle. “He told me not to draft him for my fantasy football team.”
