Eli Manning enjoys "Seinfeld" reruns.

Not that there's anything wrong with that. Many NFL players have far worse vices.

But Jay Zollar, general manager of WLUK, a Fox affiliate in Green Bay, this week made it clear that he, not the Giants quarterback, is the master of that domain.

On a video on the station's Web site, Zollar points at the camera and says, "Eli, no 'Seinfeld' for you!"

Yup, the station has pulled its regularly scheduled 5:30 p.m. Saturday "Seinfeld" rerun in an attempt to disrupt Manning's preparation for Sunday's NFC Championship Game against the Packers.

(Manning will be free at that hour; the first thing on his schedule is a team dinner at 6.)

"We don't want to give any comfort to the enemy whatsoever when they come into town," Zollar says. "We know laughter is good medicine, and we decided we're not going to give that to him."

To which any self-respecting Giants fan would say, "Yada, yada, yada."

Evidently Packers fans believe it's not enough that this year's players already have proven they're real, and they're spectacular.

The station is conducting an online vote to choose a replacement program.

As of yesterday, a special about former Packers coach Vince Lombardi totaled 65.7 percent of the vote, followed by a rerun of a local show with Packers receiver Donald Driver (18.

, an infomercial for "The Good Feet Store" starring former Dallas Cowboys back Emmitt Smith (8.

and a "M*A*S*H" rerun (6.7).

If Packers fans really want to mess with Manning, they will choose the infomercial - essentially a show about nothing.
