Eli Steals The Show On SNL!!! Pokes Fun At Peyton, Favre & Tebow

Take that, big brother!
On a night when Eli Manning Tebowed, took some indirect shots at Brett Favre’s texting habits and even poked fun at his own manhood, he saved his best shot on “Saturday Night Live” for his older brother, Peyton.
The Giants quarterback scored big with a hilarious commercial spoof for a fictional “Little Brothers” charity, striking a blow for tortured brothers everywhere.
In the skit, the two-time Super Bowl MVP pledged to help kids deal with adversity “especially when that adversity is an older sibling.”
He then told a young boy’s older brother “I’m your worst f----ing nightmare.”
Eli, in a skit reminiscent of the classic United Way spoof Peyton did when he hosted in 2007, went on a rampage. He held one older brother’s head in a toilet, gave another a wedgie, and shot another with an arrow.
“We know that big brothers can be real d---heads,” Eli said.
That’s not a side the usually calm, polite and sometimes awkward Manning has ever shown publicly, but he was clearly willing to step way out of character during his star turn on SNL.
He was dressed in a black unitard for his first skit, showing off some purposely awkward touchdown celebrations for a videogame production. He even “Tebowed” for the skit — getting down on one knee in prayer, in imitation of now-Jets quarterback Tim Tebow’s famous move.
In one of his funnier skits, Manning played a man on trial for murder whose Favrelike “sexts” were read into evidence. That included a picture of Eli in his underwear with a large, well-placed banana between his legs.
Just as he promised, Eli let loose and seemed remarkably comfortable joking and poking fun at himself on stage. He moved seamlessly through his roles, which included an angry Occupy Wall Street protester, a game-show contestant whose new girlfriend was the host and a sketchy male guest on a foreign TV show wearing a platinum blonde wig.
Near the end of the show, he even took a page from Derek Jeter’s “SNL” playbook, appearing in a skit dressed as a woman, wearing a bright yellow dress and another big, blonde wig.
He was even surprisingly animated during his opening monologue, joking about being converted into a true New Yorker. For proof, he offered that the best Italian food in the city can be found at an Olive Garden in New Jersey, and that his favorite musical is “Cats.”
He even said “Fugheddaboudit!” in his lispy Southern drawl.
He joked early that “after the two Super Bowls, this is definitely the third-most exciting night of my life."
