Writer compares cop-killer’s features to Eli Manning’s
Bill Streicher-USA TODAY Sports
James Dator has been covering a wide range of sports for SB Nation for over a decade, with a special focus on the NFL.
This is a quote from a Philly.com article about the manhunt and subsequent arrest of Eric Frein, a 31-year-old man who was arrested for killing a Pennsylvania trooper. It’s perhaps the greatest proof that the Eagles vs. Giants rivalry has gone a touch too far.
Part of writing is understanding your audience, and it’s here that staff writer William Bender understood his crowd. After being questioned about his word choice on social media he didn’t back down.
@randomhero213 there's always a reason to take a shot at Eli. You wouldn't understand
