W hopefully we get all the Mannings
I would be PISSED if as a starting player in the game I was paid only $500 & a free copy of the game. All this did was feed the ego of a kid who hasn't been able to win the starting job in 2 years and is too scared to go into the portal where his worth (or lack thereof) would be measured. I highly doubt the commercial (used as an excuse for the $50K payment) moved the needle all that much. They'll make MAYBE $5K of that back in additional sales.
I applauded him for following his Uncle's lead to forge his own path 3 years ago. It was much better than his other Uncle's path of following daddy to that *hole up north. This 50K NIL payment is him relying on his name rather than his actual worth from his play on the field. It earily rings the same bell as that second Uncle. I realize most players aren't old enough to remember the stain put on the family name by the 2004 Draft. Google 2004 NFL draft Chargers and draw your own conclusions. Peyton is the only decent Manning who actually earned everything he was given.

Huge mistake and may cost us fans or the sport or the game star players holding out collectively next year or after. I admire him going to a different‘t college than his family has done Eli and Archie the Ole Miss crew pulling what they did with the Chargers made me only like Peyton. Arch hasn’t earned it yet you are correct. I wish he picked a different college as a frog fan not necessarily TCU but any other state school not just joining the SEC. Hail State!

The Manning kids get a lot of bad advice from Archie. When Eli was drafted, he demanded that Eli get traded to an NFC team so the kids could potentially play in the Super Bowl together. Im guessing that this little bit of advice came from grandpa too.
