Good one Peyton

Peyton Manning is an injured football player ... his wife also went to school with my sister. Anywhoo, Phil Simms made some comments about him the other day and I have to admit, I am a Peyton Manning fan now.  Story below:

Peyton Manning takes a shot at Phil Simms

Well, the flesh may be weak, but the spirit still has a perpetually impatient look on its face.
The decision of Colts quarterback Peyton Manning to show up unannounced and meet with the media included a comment about the recent ridiculous remarks from Phil Simms of CBS and Showtime that Manning won’t “let” the Colts draft Stanford quarterback Andrew Luck.

“I don’t talk to Phil,” Manning said, via Phillip B. Wilson of the Indianapolis Star.  “Phil doesn’t talk to me.  He did text me after that, saying ‘Hey, sorry to drag your name into this.’  I wrote back, ‘Phil I don’t know what you’re talking about.’  He said, ‘Well on my show, Inside the NFL, I made this statement.’  I said, ‘Phil, I hate to break it to you, but I don’t watch your show, along with a lot of other people that I don’t think watch that show.’  Giving himself a little more credit than probably was merited.”

Damn.

I’ll be right back, after I order an authentic Peyton Manning jersey.
