Seahawks Pathetic Pursuit of Manning

Haha, the Seahawks flew out to Denver where Manning was meeting the Broncos, expecting to meet with him. 5. Manning does not like surprises Seahawks coach Pete Carroll and GM John Schneider flew to Denver unannounced to show how serious they were. That type of move might work on college players, but Manning didn't appreciate it. He never met with the Seahawks.

I really have my doubts on peyton, and here is why:

1. We all saw what happened to the colts without him this season, they tanked.
2. peyton put them on the map,,,,no peyton, no colts stadium.
3. He gave them a superbowl.

Knowing the above, why wouldn't the colts want him back? Because they knew him the better than anyone else, and knew he was done, and chose to cash in on the Luck lottery. I believe the teams that wanted him, were basing their decision on jersey sales, ticket sales, and the popularity of bringining him in for a lot of income....not necessarily a superbowl.
