Well to start, he wanted (with Brees) to be excluded from the Franchise Tag.

Ignoring that.

Former Colts lineman Adam Meadows tells a tale

"For a guy who doesn't get sacked a lot, you don't want to hear it when he does," says Meadows, who left the Colts after the 2003 season and retired in 2007. Meadows says that during the 2000 season he was diagnosed with pneumonia on a Monday and had lost 14 pounds by the time he was able to practice again that Friday. Still ailing, Meadows managed to play that weekend. But after the team lost at New England, Manning ripped his performance: "We're paying you to be better than that."

and

When Meadows left practice early to attend the birth of his second daughter, he says Manning asked why he couldn't have babies in the offseason.

Or

Before the Super Bowl three years ago, Manning pissed off teammates when he had the Colts ban hotel-room visits from relatives and friends the week before the game. "I don't want any crying kids next to me while I'm trying to study," he said during a team meeting, according to Sports Illustrated's Michael Silver.

Sick talent, but he's an ass like most. Who can forget his protection issues comment?

The issue that Sherman had resulted from the press conferences during the week. A reporter asked Crabtree if Sherman was the best. he didn't say he was but said he was really good. He didn't call anyone the best. He wasn't interested in asking the question.
 
So Kap was asked if when he saw Sherman was on Crab did that change his mind on where to go with the ball?

Kap responded with "No, I was going there no matter what"

L....O.....L!!!!

Talking trash back to guys talking trash to them.

Crabtree got his panties hurt because Sherman tapped his butt and gave him the smack talk low down at the end of the game and Crabtree pushes his face.

I bet Ray Lewis talked a lot of trash during the game but during his interviews all he did was thank god for the blessing and talked up a bunch of garbage.

Glad to see Sherman speaks his mind, because he's certainly earned it.

I don't care about trash talking during and before the game, but when the game is over and you've won don't be an ass.

Are you saying that a call in the rulebook is wrong?

Except as I pointed out above, you could make a case that it shouldn't have been a foul at all. Don't get me wrong it could have easily been flagged 15. Or given the giant leap he did with his plant leg. His plant leg went as far foreword as his kicking leg. That's not common at all.

Not really. Once the whistle blows the ball is dead. That is the way the it should be. In this case, it didn't matter cause the Niners got it back anyways on next play.

I don't understand how what you are saying related to the call I'm talking about. Sea fumbled the ball, Bowman recovered it and the refs thought the ball was still alive which was then recovered by a Sea player. Could have easily been reviewed and corrected.

Haven't watched film on his motion regularly.

Either way, its not the reason why we lost. We lost because Kaep choked in the 4th quarter after playing a decent game. I think the playcalling was too conservative when it was clear the offensive line wasn't doing crap in the running game. Just need to get better next year.
