There is absolutely nothing positive that could be gained from Manning attempting to play again. He's had a brilliant career. He doesn't need the money. He could have a lucrative career as a broadcaster, or stay connected with the game in some other non-playing capacity. If he plays again, it's a tragedy waiting to happen.

Arizona is my guess.

Bret Favre would be available for the Bears.

Best wishes to Peyton and his family. I loved watching him play.

I'm 44 years old. I currently have a sprained thumb. I will always have a 2nd degree shoulder separation (torn ligaments between the shoulder blade and collar bone). I hurt every day because of lower back issues.

And tomorrow night I will step onto the ice for my weekly mens-league hockey game. I don't get paid "zillions". But I still do it. Why? Because I love the game. I love my teammates. I love the competition. Someday, probably very soon, I will have to hang up my skates...and even on that day, I will be thinking that "maybe I can go just one more"

I completely understand why they don't just walk away.

Imagine him going to a team with a sucky offense that can’t even protect him? *cough* Redskins *cough*

[jilliane]

Lol

[jilliane]

You won’t hang up the skates, you’ll just slow down a bit, and you will find the right league where it will continue

[Axeslinger]

Thank you for that awesome comment.

[jilliane]

I’m a hockey mom, I truly get it.

Rush just said it’s Denver.

Wouldn’t that be great. Manning and Tebow in the same backfield.
They could change Pro football with the possibilities of plays.

Reports say Denver is gonna cut Tebow loose as soon as deal with Manning is done
