Quote:
According to Indianapolis Star columnist Bob Kravitz, Manning experienced (unreported) neck problems throughout the 2010 season and tried all kinds of non-surgical solutions early in the offseason before agreeing to surgery in late May. Manning signed a new, $90 million contract in July.
Manning got his money before anyone truly understood the seriousness of his neck injury. Manning took care of Manning. He made it difficult for the Colts to take care of the Colts. Surgery in February might have allowed the Colts to consider selecting a quarterback high in the latest draft.

Heh, he goes on and on and on (and on) about how important Manning is to the team, then writes like Manning knew how serious it was and just wanted a pay day. Of course he played with it last year and held off on surgery until he absolutely had to do it....
he's that ****ing important. Manning didn't screw them out of solid backup... that's ridiculous.
