They had Archie Manning on the NFL Live draft show this afternoon. He was saying that the Chargers and the commissioner asked him to meet with the team to try and get Eli to want to play there. After several meetings, he said Eli still had the same opinion. He said that he had nothing to do with the decision, and that nowhere were the Giants or any other team mentioned in any conversation.
I think he had more to do with this then he says, but also that it was Eli's request, and was never ment to go public.
