“Giants are set up to win it all.”
A statue of liberty quarterback never does well against a good defense. Eli has feet planted in cement. Eli gets sacked 11 times, throws 4 interceptions and is removed in the third quarter for the backup. NY backup throws two touchdowns to make score somewhat respectable.
SF - 24 NY - 14
Eli is sent to Mississippi to train with Brett Farve. Eli breaks Farve’s records for interceptions in 2014 while playing for Cleveland.
He retires and makes a fortune as a cement contractor. In 2050, Eli is found living in a cement shack with 576 cats, all encased in cement.
With 10 seconds to go and his team down by six points, tight end Vernon Davis catches a deep pass over the middle and as the defender slips and falls on the soggy stadium turf, he begins his cut up field in front of the San Francisco bench. He looks ahead and sees nothing but a red, white and gold endzone and the glory that will soon be his once more. He sneaks a quick peak over at coach Harbaugh who is windmilling his arms, a look of expectancy and jubilation sweeping over him. Davis smiles and his eyes begin to well up with tears as he contemplates another glorious finish to an amazingly close game. Inexplicably, Davis, his eyes completely blurred by the streaming tears, steps on the sideline. Out of bounds as the final second ticks off, the gun is heard, the game is lost.
After the game, when questioned about the play, a dejected Davis attempts to explain how difficult it is for such an emotional man as himself to play a sport that offers the potential for so great a reward and that he is contemplating retirement. When questioned about what he would do in a life after football, he explained how the democratic party has already made him an offer to serve as the San Francisco campaign liaison for Team Obama in a big get out the vote effort with gays, minorities, illegals, the homeless, spoiled children or anyone else who might be subject to their emotions.
