I shed a few tears when I watched Peyton Manning talk about his career as a Colt when announcing that he was now a free agent. Listening to a man I respect choking back tears gets me every time. Like Peyton (well, kind of) I have been a Colt my entire adult life. And, like him, I will always be a Colt. But, you better believe I will have a new Manning jersey from which ever team is lucky enough to grab him this year. I don't know if Peyton will come back this year full force. Most athletes don't after an injury. But, I do know without a doubt he is an offensive genius and any team would be lucky to have his head on their side. Of course I dreamed Peyton would retire as a Colt and become an offense coordinator for the Colts. I'll live.
