Q: I dread many things about dining out in the coming year  from closings of beloved restaurants to ever-weirder ramen mutations. But the scariest of all may be the expansion of the online reservation app Tock  which makes you pay in advance for your meal at the time of booking — mostly at super-luxury eateries  but increasingly at lower-priced places  too.
The great Eleven Madison Park is the only place in Manhattan that currently uses three-year-old Tock for all seatings (though it’s also one of the very few restaurants worth such hassle). In Williamsburg  tiny Aska also uses the app exclusively. Now  Tock — which is used by just 300 US restaurants  compared to 43 000 for OpenTable and 1 000 for Resy — is trying to lure in lesser joints such as Té with Tock Intro.
Backed by millions of dollars in venture-capital funding  Tock promises great things to owners. Its platform can help them better manage reservations and reduce no-shows. Customers supposedly benefit from avoiding the hassles of reserving by phone.
But I hate having to buy a ticket for a meal — even for a world-class place such as Eleven Madison Park or Chicago’s Alinea  which is co-owned by Nick Kokonas  who also happens to be the founder of Tock.
Certain places that use OpenTable or Resy require a $50-a-head credit-card deposit. I’m not crazy about that  but at least we’re not giving them an interest-free loan of nearly $1 200  as a table for four would be at Eleven Madison Park reserved months from now on Tock.
Tock is striving to make inroads here by handling New Year’s Eve bookings at places that would otherwise use OpenTable or Resy. “New Year’s Eve has notoriously high demand and no-show rates  so we’re seeing a large number of restaurants using Tock Intro to combat the no-show issue ” says a company rep.
Among them: The Lambs Club and Lupa Osteria Romana — where you can only book the $275-per-head “Roman feast” starting at 9:45 p.m. on Dec. 31 using  Tock .
 Tock ’s strategy is to persuade users of the limited service to switch to the site full-time.  Tock ’s rep says  “Many restaurants start with  Tock  by offering a single prepaid experience  which is what you’re seeing with Lupa’s NYE dinner. After they see the full platform … they often transition all reservations over to  Tock .”

Q: Eli Manning  will not be standing at midfield after Sundayâs final episode of Nightmare In The Swamp to give an emotional goodbye speech to Big Blue Nation.
Thatâs because  Manning  doesnât know if  he âs about to play  his  last game for the Giants or where  he  will be playing in 2018.  He  will be 37 years old next week  but  he âs not ready to retire and  his  first choice is to continue playing for the Giants.
âI want to play and feel like I can still play at a high level â  he  said Wednesday.
Will  Manning  agree to play the Kurt Warner role for Sam Darnold or Josh Rosen just as Warner  who made the Hall of Fame this year  did for  Manning  in  his  rookie year in 2004? Warner won the job in training camp  got the Giants off to a 5-2 start  but Tom Coughlin benched him after back-to-back losses and inserted  Manning  into the starting lineup in the 10th game.
 Manning  lost  his  first six starts before a last-second victory over the Cowboys in the final game. Warner had been cut by the Rams and was looking for a one-and-done situation to restore  his  reputation to put  him  in position to get a starting job in 2005.
Warner wanted to continue playing when Coughlin benched  him   but he never complained. He sat in front of his locker during down time and read the Bible. He signed to start for the Cardinals the next year.

Can  Manning  accept that role?
âI donât know â  he  told the Daily News. âI havenât thought about situations right now.â
Would  he  rather go somewhere else or take  his  chance playing Warner and trying to hold  his  job longer than nine games?
âI donât know yet â  he  said.
Iâm not sure itâs in  him  to hold space until the young guy is ready. Remember  the Giants wanted Kerry Collins to stick around and babysit Manning his rookie year  and he responded by asking to be cut. The Giants obliged and Collins signed with the Raiders and Warner signed with Giants.
Mentoring is easy.  Manning  has done that all season with non-threatening rookie Davis Webb  who jumped up to No. 2 on the depth chart Wednesday. Babysitting until the rookie is ready to handle the job is not for everybody  especially a two-time Super Bowl MVP who believes thereâs a third championship in his right arm.

 Manning âs skills have deteriorated. Whether itâs the natural erosion for QBs his age other than Tom Brady or because itâs been years since heâs played with an offensive line that can protect or a running game that can make defenses creep up a little bit  the fact is  Manning  is no longer an elite QB.
 He  is prepared to compete for  his  job this summer  but if the situation is explained that at the first sign of trouble  he âs going to be benched just like Warner was in 2004   he  may not want any part of it.

Q: caption  Susan Collins  and Donald Trump source Kevin Lamarque/Reuters
 Sen. Susan Collins of Maine  announced Monday that  she  will vote ânoâ on the latest Republican healthcare bill  all but surely ending the latest effort to repeal and replace Obamacare.
 Collins  joins Sens. John McCain and Rand Paul in opposition  and since two GOP members could oppose the bill for it to pass  the bill is likely dead.  The Maine senator  also opposed the previous iterations of the Republican healthcare bills  helping to end that push in July.
âSweeping reforms to our health care system and to Medicaid canât be done well in a compressed time frame  especially when the actual bill is a moving target â said a statement from  Collins . âToday  we find out that there is now a fourth version of the Graham-Cassidy proposal  which is as deeply flawed as the previous iterations.â
 Collins  pointed to three primary issues with the bill that caused  her  to oppose it:
Cuts to Medicaid  estimated at roughly $1 trillion from 2020 to 2036  by shifting to a block grant system: âThis would have a devastating impact to a program that has been on the books for 50 years and provides health care to our most vulnerable citizens  including disabled children and low-income seniors â  Collins  said.Weakened protections for people with pre-existing conditions: âSome states could allow higher premiums for individuals with pre-existing conditions  potentially making their insurance unaffordable.âHealth insurance coverage losses: âThird  physicians  patient advocates  insurers  and hospitals agree that both versions of this legislation would lead to higher premiums and reduced coverage for tens of millions of Americans â said the statement.
 Collins  also said that despite the recent change by the authors of the Graham-Cassidy bill to include more money for  her  state in their formula for the new block grants  the overall cut was still too great for  her  to stomach. Additionally   Collins  took issue with the seat-of-the-pants changes to the formula that lead to  her  state gaining more money.
âBut even more important  if Senators can adjust a funding formula over a weekend to help a single state  they could just as easily adjust that formula in the future to hurt that state â  Collins  wrote. âThis is simply not the way that we should be approaching an important and complex issue that must be handled thoughtfully and fairly for all Americans.â
Sen. Bill Cassidy  one of the authors of the new proposal  was frank about the prospects for the bill if  Collins  was not on board during an appearance with CNNâs Wolf Blitzer just hours before the announcement.
âIf you lose  Susan Collins   itâs over right?â asked Blitzer.
