Eli Manning joins Twitter with great first tweet

Eli Manning has ended his NFL career and opted to start a social media career.

The longtime New York Giants quarterback has joined Twitter, and opened his account in a great way: with a “Hoosiers” reference.

To paraphrase Jimmy Chitwood, “I don’t know if it’ll make any change, but I figure it’s time for me to start playing social media." pic.twitter.com/Af8IFMOiEQ

Manning managed to go an entire 16-year career without succumbing to the pressures of joining social media, which is impressive in itself. Now that he has plenty of free time, he must have figured that he may as well.

Now, was his first tweet better or worse than eternal rival Tom Brady’s? That’s for you to decide.
