Eli Supports Johnathan Vilma Suspension

When Reggie Bush commented that there would be no players that would support Roger Goodell’s season ending suspension of Johnathan Vilma, he didn’t account for Eli Manning. In a conference call to promote Eli’s SNL appearance this May 5th, Eli stated “I think he’s (Goodell) doing the right thing to make sure this doesn’t ever happen again,” Manning said. “There’s no room for any type of bounty system in the N.F.L. You have to respect the game.”
Manning added: “I think he’s been harsh to try and prove, to make a statement, that there is no place for this in the game of football.”
