Quote Of The Day
An interview with Archie Manning
Way back when, Archie Manning never had a chance to learn the cerebral part of football while quarterbacking the sad-sack New Orleans Saints; he was too busy running for his life. “I’m paying for it now, too,” he said.
He’s 65 and coming off knee replacement and back fusion surgeries. Archie doesn’t even like to hold a football anymore, he said, “because every time I had a football in my hands some, I got hit.“
Heh.
He never learned how to get rid of the ball, either, and he played in the days when you could throw the ball in the upper deck without getting flagged. He still deserves his New Orleans royalty status because he’s a good guy but he was part of those “sad-sack New Orleans Saints”.
Hehehe, I figured I’d get you involved with a Saints mention!
Moth to the flame … 🙂
