A New Beginning

Today begins the first day of the rest of Peyton Manning's NFL career. It's obvious that he will sign with another team for 2012. To what degree will he be able to play? Where will he end up? There are several possibilities.

His press conference with Colts owner Jim Irsway reminded me of a funeral. They both said nice things and got very emotional. It was a tough way to end his career there. In a way, we can't feel bad for Manning. He made $25 million last year while standing on the sidelines. His departure was over money, playing time and salary cap issues. There was no way around it.

Manning will be back looking for one last chance to make it to the Super Bowl. How it will play out is anyone's guess. As a fan, I really enjoyed watching him play. He brought excitement to every game with the Pats.
