Peyton Manning and "Bronco Nation" don't like the fact that a giant banner of Baltimore Ravens quarterback Joe Flacco hangs on the wall of their stadium in anticipation of Opening Night in the NFL when the two teams battle.
Said humble Peyton, "it doesn't seem like it makes sense that the Denver Broncos have to have an opposing player on their stadium." That is a little strange, I guess.
But based on what Manning says and more importantly what he doesn't say in this statement, I can come to some basic conclusions. I guess Peyton Manning thinks it's normal to have a giant banner of just him (and not his teammates) on the wall of Broncos stadium right next to the banner of Joe Flacco, because after all, Peyton Manning is a god and wants everybody to know it. Just like it's normal for Peyton Manning to have a giant Buick logo awkwardly safety-pinned to the left shoulder of all his practice jerseys so it can be seen during post-practice interviews, simply because the car company gives him money. Just like it's normal for a guy who throws a ball for a living to sell pizza and cable TV and a thousand other things that have nothing to do with football just because those companies gave him money.
You've never been afraid of your own shadow, but heaven forbid another 1x Super Bowl-winning quarterback stand anywhere near your limelight. Peyton Manning, you self-promoting diva, come down off your throne, take a whiff of your own arrogance and ask yourself, "who ya crappin'"?
