Eli Manning signed a wall of the locker room from the Cowboys' first regular season home game in their new stadium. "It?s a pretty common thing. I was asked to sign it," Manning said Thursday in confirming the authenticity of the signature. "It wasn?t like I just went there and signed it. I didn?t have a pen on me or anything." "We won't forget that," Cowboys linebacker Bradie James said, according to The Associated Press. "It just makes for a more intense game." Said Manning, "Yeah, I?ve heard a few things about it. But they?ll eventually get over it." "It wasn't anybody from our organization that asked him," Phillips said, according to the Dallas Morning News, adding, "Things come back around in this league. I respect the team we play. That's the way I approach the game and I expect our players to do the same thing." "Eli is a classy player, a great player," Phillips continued. "I really respect him, especially his family. I mean, I played football against his dad in college. They're a great family. I don't think he meant anything by it but it wasn't a great thing for him to do."
