Plenty of guys have restructured their deals over the years. Steve Young did it almost every year he played under the salary cap system. Troy Aikman did it multiple times. Tom Brady simply took less money on the front end of his deal. To hear you people tell it, if it's good in the NFL, Manning must have come up with it.

Actualy Peyton also did this when they resigned Harrison to a long term contract. It isn't just because they won the SB.

Not to add to the love fest, but I think last year Manning offered to restructure his contract so that they could retain Edgerrin James.

I guess Peyton will never do anything to get a "that was sorta cool" from you, right? Good thing he doesn't require your approval to move on to next year... :shades:

for me, i think it's about time. that huge contract when it was signed, you just knew that at some point it was going to eat up cap space. no way he could keep that kind of deal and the colts be able to sign quality players and keep them for any length of time.

What makes you despise Peyton so much hat??

I don't despise him. I generally could care less if he disappeared from the planet tomorrow. On the other hand, the clueless UT fans who mindlessly worship the guy and act as if he invented UT football do irritate me.

Nothing like using a half wit hoodlum to impart life lessons to impressionable youth. What happened? Were OJ Simpson, Stephen Jackson, and Ron Artest all busy?

Too bad his avatar couldn't have been of the collective societal downfall family, the pathetic Manning family, this year headed by the middle kid, parochial Peyton...

It was probably a quick seminar on the techniques of hand to hand combat with women.

Look at his left arm in that picture. That clearly looks like the, "You want to grab her by the hair, and come down with her head like this onto the nearest table" pose.

I highly doubt this ever happened. Pac Man has bodyguards with him nowadays that are employed to keep trouble away from him. If this chick was about to cause trouble, she'd be dealt with by someone other than Jones.

I'd hope it didn't happen, and wasn't really implying that it did. Just messing around with our good friend Pacman.

Well that solves it. Case closed.

The theory of the bodyguards being there to protect him from trouble falls apart with him being at a strip club at 4 in the morning with $81,000. They are around to keep anyone from physically harming him, not to prevent him from getting into trouble.

why does a professional athlete, in excellent physical condition, need "bodyguards"? c'mon, call them what they are, a "posse". The Pac Man from the video game is a bigger international celebrity than Adam Jones will ever be.
