    TV STATION PULLS "SEINFELD" TO MESS WITH ELI by Michael David Smith

    The Green Bay Fox affiliate WLUK says it will not air Seinfeld in its regular Saturday afternoon time slot because it's Eli Manning's favorite show and the station doesn't want Manning to feel welcome when his Giants visit the Packers.

    "Why give comfort to the enemy?" said FOX 11 Vice President and General Manager Jay Zollar. "Green Bay Packers fans do not want any of the New York Giants to get a good night's sleep and FOX 11 will do its part."

    But if the station really wants to get in Manning's head, why doesn't it take a page from the All-Seinfeld Team and show the episode where Jerry gets the bad haircut?

    I'd be willing to bet that Eli probably has all the Seinfeld seasons on DVD.

    I'd ask, 'why give a team additional reason to win'.

    On ESPN, the Giants were commenting how they didn't have any animosity for the Packers (unlike the Boys) and that they really respect/admire Favre....

      I'm starting to think that the Giants themselves are thinking they're gonna get slaughtered...this isn't the first thing I've read to make me think that.

        Not trying to hijack the thread but................
        I watched Seinfeld being filmed (cousin was a cameraman), got to meet the whole bunch. The episode I saw was the one where Poppi peed on Jerry's couch.
        I also have a copy of the script of the episode where Kramer's 'real' name was revealed.
        Just thought I'd share.

          You mean Cosmo wasn't his real name? I missed that one.

          This kind of stuff by the locals is kind of stupid...but they do need to give him a wake up call when it's -5.

            Up until that point they had only referred to him as Kramer. 'Cosmo' was a big revelation.

            I think it's fun on the local front. Where else but a small place like GB, could this happen? Certainly not NY!

              Somehow I get the feeling the fans at Lambeau will make him feel unwelcome enough...

                  Come on, by Kevin Bacon's reasoning, it was related..........somewhat.

                    All the stations should air the replay of the Giants vs. Vikings game this year when they are in town.

                      That's evil. I think I like it. Or they could replay the Packers/NE SB...

                        I wasn't a big fan of the Seinfeld program but my favorite episode was the one where George faced the embarrassment of "shrinkage" of his private parts.

                        Speaking of shrinkage, with the cold weather projected at Lambeau this Sunday, there may be plenty of "shrinkage" going on!

                          There's a poll on fox11online.com asking about what they should air in place of Seinfeld..I voted for a re-run of Monday's "Inside the Huddle with Donald Driver" because I missed it and he had the entire receiving corps as guests..But the overwhelming leader is a Vince Lombardi special that aired like 10 years ago..God, Family, and the Green Bay Packers or something like that..

                              By the way, I believe you can catch that rerun on packers.com.
