1. Mr. Perfect vs. Mr. Potato Head
Over the last two weeks, the media has descended upon Arizona for some major sporting event that’s going to be played there this Sunday. We hear it will be super (pun unquestionably intended). All week, the only question the media can seem to ask Patriots dreamy quarterback Tom Brady is, “Why are you so perfect at everything?” (Except of course for the one woman, who wore a wedding dress to a press conference and asked Tom to marry her). Wow, some guys just have it made. The last time a strange woman asked us to marry her it wasn’t because we were perfect like Tom Terrific. No, she asked because she wanted to escape harsh living conditions in Thailand, but that’s another story for another day.
Conversely, Tom’s counterpart on the Giants Peyt…we mean Eli Manning, has essentially been asked a different question by the media: “How the hell did you get here?” Manning certainly hasn’t received any marriage proposals this week. The third-grader haircut doesn’t have supermodels flocking to hang out with him. And, no matter what happens on Sunday, he will always be Peyton’s little brother.
