Wow, they actually paid him? I mean, on the face of it, I guess there’s no serious issue there but I thought people did things like that to help and out of a sense of charity. I could see paying incidentals like food on the site of filming but 500K
really, I thought the corporate endorsements and other deals and the huge salaries QBs make would have been sufficient.

The Manning boys.....the ad men....I’ll never again have any respect for his brother, Peyton, after he stormed off the field at the end of the Super Bowl and did NOT congratulate Drew Brees or any of the Saints.
WHY? Because the spoiled, little brat was mad because his team didn’t win.
A** HOLE

Does a hospital really need to spend that much on advertising?

“Before agreeing to release St. Vincent’s from their obligation, Manning had already made over $500,000 from them.”
So it’s wrong to be duly compensated for services rendered? Besides, his half-mil is hardly the cause of their $700 mil hole. I say focus on what he does for them without obligation.

My opinion of Eli just rose...not much, but it rose. :oP

Wow. The sniping at Eli Manning because he had the audacity to accept money rightfully earned. And then he helps the hospital by forgiving $500,000 of HIS money, and still he gets unkind comments.
Very ungracious, IMO.

...but they are still going to give him a load of sh*t over taking the first contractually agreed payment of $500,000.
Whatever you do, don’t blame the laws that order the hospital to treat people who cannot pay, don’t have insurance and are in this country illegally.
