Wow the Chosen One is a jerk

[gowazzu02]

Totally got whoever is in charge of the scoreboard entertainment in mile high fired. Because when the chosen one was on the field Up Two Scores, With under 2 minutes to play, with SD having ZERO time outs left. The opporator cut to players dancing on the sideline, didn't play the standard "quite down chosen one at work"

Wow Peyton, I know your all football all the time (unless your slanging pizzas) But jeeze man, the game was over, allow your team, your fans to have a little fun enjoying the win....

But nope,,,, lets just go have the scoreboard guy canned.

I don't blame Manning for being pissed. The guy is a perfectionist, and he plans everything. It's pretty standard, when the offense is coming onto the field, you don't play music and get the crowd loud. You do that when the defense is coming onto the field.

Looks like someone was bored this morning and had nothing better to do. Just saying.

Yes in the first quarter, or really anytime the game isn't already decided. But less then two minutes, Their running one dive up the middle, then taking knees.

Settle down peyton, you just got a guy who was probably making what 45K a year canned?

Solid deflection tactic. Don't like what a poster has to say, attack said poster.

nice work

You've got the game situation wrong. Denver never took a knee last night.

You know it takes more than one guy to orchestrate the scoreboard and video board, right? So you realize that no one is likely to get canned, right?

Us Colts fans learned real quick to STFU when the offense was on the field. You could literally hear a pin drop in the RCA Dome/LOS.

The whole thing just made Manning look like a crotchety old man trying to ruin everyone's fun, especially when the game was well in hand.

 

[HammerDown]

Totally agree. Obama's an asshole.

No one fucking cares.

You must admit you seem a little bitter, because the guy your boys smoked in the SB last yr is excelling this yr while your boys are seemingly in decline......
Peyton is a class act, and that's just him being him, you know, the complete opposite of Sherman being Sherman.....
I wouldn't get in too big of a frenzy though, for some unknown reason, Peyton usually spends all his money in the regular season and has little left in the post season......
So just wait and see how it all shakes out.....

 

[Dolemite censored]

Manning must have been much more pissed after the SB....

 

[Dolemite censored]

Totally agree. Obama is the greatest president ever.

Dole was right all along.

Fixed.

 

[Oldschool739]

Manning must have been much more pissed after the SB....

He was mad at the score on the board there, instead of the guy running it....

 

[jctoo]

Totally agree. Obama's an asshole.

He's going to set up a NFL Scoreboard Czar ...

 

[jctoo]

I have a coupon for that.

We know.

Honestly not at all. I really like watching manning. Why would I have any ill will towards him? My team smoked him in the superbowl, and we beat him this year giving him his teams only loss.

I just think its prickish for a gazillionaire nfl QB to publicly call out some random dude who runs a big screen for a living. Sherman, Wilson, Manning get paid big bucks and should be critisized,,,,, the dude working the big screen doesn't.

Hell Id probably be on board had this been at a time that mattered in the game. but the game was over.

 

[iowajerms]

I think it happened more than the last 2 minutes, IDK for sure though. But I know one of the TDs Denver had, Manning tried to quiet down the crowd and the crowd didn't get quiet. I just figured they were near SD fans or something. I quit watching after the 3rd quarter. But I have a feeling that it did happen outside the last 2 minutes.

Manning was frustrated over it and was just ranting. I don't think anybody will be fired over it. I don't think Manning intended that. Frustrated that it happened? Yes. But does he want to make sure it doesn't happen again? Yes. Scoreboards are rarely career jobs, even in the NFL. They are intern jobs. I'm sure once Manning is cooled down, he will be calm when he talks to those responsible. It will be a learning experience. Manning just overreacted.

2 minutes is enough time for a team to score 2 tds. The Texans know this.

Heck, I remember one year the 49'ers scored something like 3 TD's in less than 2 minutes.

They scored...

Other team fumbled the kickoff, resulting in a score

Other team threw an INT or fumbled their first offensive play, which led to another score...21 points in under 2mins if I remember correctly. It was awhile ago.
