I'm just saying that he's NOT A PRESENCE in NY culture
AT ALL

He's literally a guy who flies in and plays QB and LEAVES

He has no presence, no aura, no essence, nothing. He has
left no impression on New Yorkers. No New Yorker has ever
seen him, been to an event where he was speaking, etc.
When you think of New York City, you don't think Eli Manning
AT ALL. Not because he's from Lousiana, but because he's
just not a part of New York life, culture, anything at all
ever.


Its not a bad thing. But it is odd for a 2-time winning
Superbowl playing in New York City.

Hell, Mark Sanchez was a bigger presence in NYC two years
ago and had 1/400th the talent and accomplishments

Again: none of this is bad, but it is noticeable
