Eli Manning! Coming off his second Super Bowl win, New York Giant’s two-time Super Bowl MVP, Eli Manning, will be the 11th NFL player to host Saturday Night Live on May 5, with a 3rd time musical guest appearance by Rhianna. The commanders of the 30 Rock Stage know championship athletes like P. Manning, Armstrong, Phelps and Brady drive high ratings (Peyton and Brady collecting 5.9 and 6.0 household ratings). The BIGGER question is: can Eli pull off the feverish fun and flavor his brother Peyton razzle dazzled when hosting in 2007? Everybody loves a little sib competition, but it’s going to be tough tittles for Eli going up against pee-your-pants skits like his big brother's “United Way”. Even Eminem probably smirked when Manning banished a kid to a portable bathroom for 20 minutes while hitting others with passes in the back and stomach in this, “Spend time with your kids so Peyton Manning doesn’t” skit. With no stage experience, Eli admits he is “a little nervous about it, but excited also”. In public, he doesn’t rock the spotlight naturally and enthusiastically like his big bro’, but father Archie Manning remains confident Eli will deliver come the big night. SportsCenter commercial, "The Manning Family" hints he has such goofy potential, but I’m still hoping Peyton pulls out that closet humor with a guest appearance.
