[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]: Here is your lifeline  Washington Nationals. We have gone from theory to reality in 24 hours.  Joe Girardi  no longer manages the New York Yankees. There is one potential managerial candidate who represents an obvious upgrade from Dusty Baker  both in the near term and long range.  He  is  Joseph Elliott Girardi .
Go get  him .
If the Nationals â and by âthe Nationalsâ here  we are speaking of the Lerner family  which owns the team â even are going to consider  Girardi   they have to go in with two things wide open: their eyes and their wallet.
Baker  whom they didnât invite back  felt  he  was woefully underpaid at $2 million annually  and the main reason  he  is no longer here anymore is because  his  contract was only for two years. Those two years expired  the Lerners had no further financial commitment  there was some ham-handedness in both public relations and game management in the division series against the Cubs  and so  he âs gone.
[ Girardi  made sense for the Nats even before the Yankees let  him  go]
 Girardi  isnât coming here for any two years and $4 million.  His  last contract with the Yankees  the one that expired following this year  was for twice that â four years and $16 million. Thereâs your starting point. If you want  him   Mr. Lerner  be prepared to value the position of manager more than you have at any point in the past. Take a number youâre comfortable with â and triple it.
Joe Maddon hadnât won a World Series when he agreed to a five-year deal worth a reported $25 million. Could  Girardi  ask for such a sum? Sure.
We donât yet know that  Girardi  will require that or that the Nationals will even inquire about  Girardi âs needs. But logic tells you General Manager Mike Rizzo  who did not return a message Thursday  has to reach out. Follow that logic further  and Rizzo has the toughest sell job of  his  career to  his  own bosses.
If Rizzo calls Yankees General Manager Brian Cashman and gets a favorable report on  Girardi  â and given their long run together  why wouldnât  he ? â and the rest of Rizzoâs reporting reveals no red flags  then  he  must present a case to ownership that what they have before them is an opportunity. Forget the money it will cost. Consider it found money.
 Girardi âs side is important in this  too. On Thursday  in the hours after the Yankees announced they would not bring  him  back  a person close to the (now former) manager said the situation was too âfresh â and we couldnât yet analyze whether  Girardi  would want to move on to the Nationals â or anywhere else â immediately.
But we do know a bit more about  Girardi âs state of mind than we did at the end of the American League Championship Series  when  he  said  he  would have to consult with  his  family â  his  wife and three children live in South Florida â before deciding whether  he  could be all-in as a manager again.
On Thursday   Girardi  issued a statement that thanked just about everybody in the Yankee organization. But it opened with this: âWith a heavy heart  I come to you because the Yankees have decided not to bring me back.â
Sounds like someone who was ready to reload for another run.  He  just needed to be asked.
One reasonable question  Girardi  would have â and one that  once a manager is in place  could hang over the entire 2018 season â is: Who would I be working for? Not next year but down the line. Rizzoâs contract runs only through 2018. He and his front office built the team that won four division titles in six years and is poised to contend again. If he convinces  Girardi  to come here and convinces the Lerners to pay for him  wouldnât another extension be in line for the general manager?
A final piece: At 53   Girardi  is too young to really be into evaluating  his  âlegacy.â But here is a list of managers who have won World Series titles with two franchises: Sparky Anderson  who did it in Cincinnati and Detroit  and Tony La Russa  who did it in Oakland and St. Louis. Short list. Everyone on it is in the Hall of Fame.
If  Girardi  wins another World Series   he  joins that group. Could  he  do it in Washington? The Nationals have stated thatâs the only goal that matters. A manager who has done it is now available.

[Q]: The study's lead author  Zachary Ward   described the forecast as "sobering."
But   he  added  "It should not be surprising that we are heading in this direction. We are already approaching this level of adult obesity for certain subgroups [and] areas of the country."
Still   Ward  expressed some surprise at how strongly being obese at a very young age predicted obesity decades down the road.
 Ward  is a doctoral candidate in health policy with the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health's Center for Health Decision Science  in Boston.
The study by  Ward  and  his  colleagues appears in the Nov. 30 issue of the New England Journal of Medicine.
