Title: Peyton Manning joins Denver Broncos Post by: apples on March 20, 2012, 05:59:21 PM Quote (CNN) -- Free agent quarterback Peyton Manning will play for the Denver Broncos, the team announced Tuesday. "This is truly a special football environment, and I'm glad to be a part of it," Manning said at a news conference where the Broncos made the announcement. "I haven't had a whole time to breathe. This happened Monday morning," Manning said of his decision to join the Broncos. He said he talked to a number of NFL teams before agreeing to a contract with Denver. "I'm proud to be a Denver Bronco," he said. "It felt strange being a new locker room. I haven't been anywhere else," said the quarterback. Manning was released earlier this year by the Indianapolis Colts, the only team for which he's played in his 14-year pro career. In the subsequent weeks, the Super Bowl XLI victor -- who has been named the National Football League's Most Valuable Player a record four times -- has been hotly sought after by several teams. He did not play during the 2011 season after having surgery to repair a neck injury, and he ended his career with the Colts this month in an emotional news conference. link (http://www.cnn.com/2012/03/20/sport/peyton-manning/index.html?hpt=hp_t3) Title: Re: Peyton Manning joins Denver Broncos Post by: GeronL on March 21, 2012, 12:52:36 AM and if Manning can't play properly??
