Default Re: Super Bowl

One thing that surprised me and really made me disappointed in Peyton Manning was his leaving the sidelines for the locker room before the final seconds were off the clock.

You would have thought he would be gracious enough to at least shake hands with Brees and tell him "good game."

Now. About Manning. He is a Hall of Fame QB in waiting. He has the one Superbowl ring already. But here is something most people don't know about him and post-season football - and I know this because he was playing high school football down here the same times my two sons were playing - he hasn't won that many "championships."

As a starter at his high school he lead his team to the playoffs three times. Never won a state championship.

As a starter at Tennessee he never won a national championship.

In the NFL he only has one.

He is still a great quarterback.
