Green Bay Packer fans are pulling out all of the stops to distract New York Giants quarterback Eli Manning before Sunday's NFC championship game, even disrupting the area's television schedule.
Upon finding out that Manning is a fan of "Seinfeld," Jay Zollar, general manager of WLUK, a Fox affiliate in Green Bay, posted a video on the station's Web site saying, "Eli, no 'Seinfeld' for you!"The station is pulling its 5:30 p.m. rerun of "Seinfeld" on Saturday -- which is during one of Manning's breaks from pre-game preparations -- and will replace it with content voted on by viewers.The station's Web site allows fans to pick one of the following options to air during that time slot: a special on former Green Bay coach Vince Lombardi, a rerun of a local show with Packers receiver Donald Driver, an infomercial for "The Good Feet Store" starring former Dallas Cowboys back Emmitt Smith, and a "M*A*S*H" rerun.
