NFT: Something Michael Lewis, Eli Manning, and OBJ have in common

BestFeature : 5/31/2020 5:34 pm

I'm listening to an interview with Michael Lewis, one of my favorite authors. For those that don't know he wrote the Blind Side, The Big Short, and Moneyball. Apparently he went to the same High School as OBJ and the Manning brothers, Isidore Newman. Not a huge tidbit, but as a Giants fan who is also a big Michael Lewis fan, I thought that was pretty cool.

Cooper's son, Arch Manning, also goes to Isidore Newman

BTW, is OBJ a rich kid?

Maybe that explains some things. Though, not all rich kids are spoiled brats.

Lewis was on with Bill
