Former President Barack Obama threw a zinger at Eli Manning and his propensity to sack himself instead of being thrown to the ground by an opposing defender. 'You dropped quick, when that rush was coming,' Obama said.
The 44th president also promoted his voting rights and awareness campaign, comparing the camaraderie of a sports team to a civil democracy. The trio reminisced the brothers' visits to the Obama White House. Eli visited with the New York Giants in 2012, during Obama's first term, while Peyton went with the Denver Broncos four years later.
Obama threw a zinger at Eli and his propensity to sack himself instead of being thrown to the ground by an opposing defender.But the most levity came when Eli asked about the president's golf outing with Peyton. "We had a great match. I'm not going to talk about anybody's game because I'm pretty sure I hit into the woods and trees a couple of times," Obama said. "It was the least I could do. I felt bad for you," Obama said.
Peyton responded:"I would rather throw four interceptions on national TV than do what I did in front of you."
