I am just so disappointed in him

If it had to go what way?

To another team. He's restricted though, so I'd be slightly surprised if we don't keep him if we no longer have Mannings salary hanging over our heads.

Gotcha....I missed the other NFL teams part.

He's had 3.5 years with him, how could he help now? Besides, he needs to be rehabbing, not wasting his time doing nothing productive.

I like the fact he grew up a Broncos fan

Now he is in a cast so there is literally nothing he can do to rehab it. It just has to stay in the cast and heal.

This now proves that your whole theory about Manning being a bad teammate and refusing to travel with the team/help Brock was just a giant load of bullshit.

It would, if I put forth such a theory. If you want to go find my "theory" and quote it, I'll be happy to wait. What it does do though, is show that Manning easily could have traveled to Chicago with no adverse affects.

Oh does it now? Where did you get your medical degree?

Forgive me if I'm uninformed, but didn't he just get the boot on Monday after traveling to North Carolina?

Luckly for me I do have access in my own home to someone who is in fact very close to being a fully certified doctor so I just asked her about it. She said it probably would be detrimental for him to go through the whole process of traveling as it would involve him to be on his feet quite a bit and would do more harm than good in terms of healing. Not necessarily the being in a plane part, but all the walking and activity that would occur around that.

She just straight up laughed when I told her about the criticism of him not being able to fly to Chicago but being able to fly for his doctor's visit. As we all tried to tell you, totally different scenario. The first one just leads to a weekend of unnecessary stress on his body. The second leads to him going directly to someone who can help him heal, which is by far a net positive.

Should I have her poke any more holes in your argument or are we good now?

We are good. I was a bit disappointed by his decision. I'm genuinely glad he was able save his foot from frostbite or having it break in half due to the various strains put on it. Now that it's in a boot, his non-rehab can really begin without any undue risks. As a professional athlete, you definitely don't want to put yourself in a position where you could get hurt.

Are we assuming it was his choice or is there something out there stating that? Do we also know if it was Ware's choice or not?
