JERRY SEINFELD - SEINFELD STEPS IN TO HELP FOOTBALL TEAM

JERRY SEINFELD is boosting his local American football team's chances of making this year's (08) Super Bowl - by sending the star quarterback copies of his hit show SEINFELD. The comedian stepped in after discovering that bosses of Green Bay Wisconsin's Fox WLUK-TV had pulled the show from the schedules ahead of the Green Bay Packers' championship game against the New York Giants on Sunday (20Jan08) - because it is Giants player Eli Manning's favourite show. Giants fan Seinfeld says, "You think I'm going to take that sitting down? "I'm going to send Eli a complete collection of Seinfeld DVDs."
