Eli ain't all that......

this is a discussion within the Saints Community Forum; Whatever your opinion of his abilities, you have to admit that it was a fairly classless thing to not play for the team that drafted you. Peyton and Archie were both drafted by terrible teams, but they had the class ...

Your point was to prove that Leinart isn't good cause Eli Manning struggled in his first ever playoff game? Good luck with that.

... if I had a penny for every time the word "class" or "classless"...

... not knowing the actual meaning of the word is worst, in my opinion.

Classlessadj.)
1. Lacking social or economic distinctions of class: a classless society.
2. Belonging to no particular social or economic class.
3. Informal: A lack of elegance of style, taste, and manner.

I think number 3 would work in that situation.

I too think Eli is going to be special. Not going to attempt to defend him for the game he had yesterday, he did have a horrible game. But, he had horrible support from his so called best WR. If I were the Giants, Plaxico Burress would be off the team immediately. Plaxico played like a lazy spoiled brat. Dude was not completing his routes, gave Eli no chance. I do not remember even Randy Moss playing so lazy, especially in a big game.

No the point was that Eli is in his third season. Leinart won't make an impact fast enough to keep the Saints in New Orleans.
