The Every MANning


I’m not big on pop quizzes, but quick…what do former Colts quarterback and 9% of Americans have in common? 
  
 An annoying little brother? No.. A number of hilarious commercials and Saturday Night Live Appearances…hardly…Like 9 % of Americans..Peyton is unemployed….After all you can’t spell unEmPlOYmENT without PEYTON..
Not going to see this EVER AGAIN...
   We’ve all been there…working 14 years at the same job…Doing everything your boss asks and more. Then you strain your neck refilling the water cooler. You can’t work, you can barely move. So, you miss some time…and while you’re gone, two younger guys, who do your job (better than you according to some people) are at your office, interviewing for your position. So, what do you do? The sensible thing of course…Gingerly march (don’t forget the neck injury) into the bosses office and ask him for a $28 million bonus…and he has the nerve to fire you.
The new guys...

Can you believe that guy!?

 Now you’re forced to stand in front of the office, with your boss…and tell coworkers how much you loved working with them and will miss them. Then you start to cry…because Johnson from accounting is taking your corner office, and Smith has your parking spot...

  While Peyton Manning’s goodbye to the Colts seemed extremely heartfelt and emotional, let me remind the world…He did not die…The musical montages of his Colts career highlights are unnecessary and excessive.  And I’m sure the Production Assistant who put it together and hasn’t slept in four days looking for every” iso”, or “back endzone angle” feels the same way.
FIBBER.!!!!

Sure, an NFL Legend will dawn new threads, if he doesn’t retire, and he says he won’t. But legendary QB’s have been known to fib about retirement….

  Unlike John Elway, Jim Kelly, Dan  Marino, and Steve Young…Peyton will sign with a new team as a free agent.  And Peyton is known as a guy who loves to watch film and prepare.  But, he’s said free agency is all new to him…But here’s to hoping he doesn’t watch any film from, “The Decision”.
Just Because....

  And maybe…just maybe…if we’re lucky…the Broncos will sign him, and he can put an end to TebowMania…for now.

  But, if we never see Peyton again…he can always get a career…at a deli....”CUTTING THAT MEAT.”
