Only In NY!

The buzz flying all over the net today is about Eli Manning’s ad on his practice jersey. The ad was sold and placed on the left shoulder of the jersey. All NFL teams are doing this. The NFL only lets team’s sell on practice jersey’s. Could you image if they sold ads on their regular jersey’s? They would look like a walking billboard, now that would be funny. Thank God for the NFL not allowing that. Anyway, Eli Manning is protesting the Timex ad on his jersey. Not because he doesn’t like Timex, it’s because he has a deal with Citizen, which is a major sponsor for him. The problem is there is nothing he can do about the ad on his jersey. That’s because the NY Giants own the jersey’s and they can sell to the highest bidder. I guess Eli will just have to suck it up for awhile and get over it.
