MANNING NOT SURE FAVRE IS DONE?
Posted by Mike Florio on May 17, 2008, 12:37 p.m.
Packers quarterback Brett Favre is retired. Colts quarterback Peyton Manning isn’t so sure he believes it.

Manning recently explained that he usually writes a letter to players who have retired. [Editor’s note: A letter? Does he send it by Pony Express?] Manning says he has yet to pen a letter to Favre.

Manning doesn’t have any inside info; he’s just taking the same wait-and-see approach that the rest of us have adopted, given Favre’s equivocation on the subject in a couple of interviews since he announced his decision to leave the sport.

Video of Manning’s remark can be seen on NFL.com.


STIR THE POT! STIR THE POT! :lol:

He just doesn't want to admit that he's been too busy making commercials, and just forgot to sit down and do it. Excuses, excuses.

Peyton Manning? Is he still around? :?

Favre hasn't filed his papers yet! He's not retired officially! Manning is such a dick. I bet he thinks players just can't wait to retire because they'll get a letter from Sir Peyton Manning!

[Tarlam!]

Well, go watch the interview. Manning is nothing but complimentary to Favre; he plainly states he's in denial over the retirement and that by some miracle, he hopes Brett will come back and play.

I dunno what there is to bash in that, but I must not be a big enough homer.

I bet he thinks players just can't wait to retire because they'll get a letter from Sir Peyton Manning!Again, the papers mean NOTHING!. All they do is hand over Brett's severance money, which Brett doesn't need. . THe Packers put him on the Retired list. He is officailly retired.

I know that, I read it already. I mean maybe Manning is waiting to write his holy letter after he turns those papers in.
