Daily Blitz: Eli thinks he’s an “elite” dad

Does Eli Manning think he’s an E-L-I-T-E dad?
“I think I’m an elite dad, yes. I think so,” he told Steve Serby of the New York Post.
The two-time Super Bowl MVP is grasping the gifts of fatherhood, Serby writes, while he and his wife Abby raise their 16-month-old daughter, Ava.
“ ‘Dada’ is one of her favorites,” Manning said. “‘Ball’ was actually, I think, one of her first words. She’s big into any sort of football or basketball, baseball. She likes to pick ’em up, she’s got a pretty good arm so far, so she’s got a little coordination.”
