109. Yup, my old lying eyes acting up again

http://sports.espn.go.com/nfldraft/draft04/news/story?id=1787271

a choice quote:

"...In fact, a source close to Manning told ESPN's Chris Mortensen that Manning is prepared to sit out the 2004 season if he is selected by the Chargers with the first pick. If Manning remained unsigned until next year's draft, he would go back into the draft in 2005."

The Chargers didn't need to try to make him look like an asshole...he and his father demonstrated quite clearly that they personify the modern NFL asshole. This is why, even though I don't root for him, Peyton Manning has my utmost respect. He took his place in the draft without complaint and endured some horrendous years with the Colts before turning them into a contending team.
