You don't have any children do you? It is a lose-lose situation. Archie makes a stand says he is pulling for his son, his son gets ambushed and now no one has any sympathy for him and he is an outcast in the crescent city. Where have you been? This is like declaring you are leaving your wife for another woman, and when it doesn't work out, you want to come back to your wife.

so what happened when he was pulling for Eli vs the Pats

He was a very good quarterback on some very very shitty saints teams

Great arm and good mobility..Not quite a Bobby Douglas( We all know he QB and rushed for nearly 1,000 yards for Bears )

Archie could have been as successful as his kids if he ever had a team around him

Can anyone say danny Abramowicz..How bout Charleton heston..He QBacked the Saints too ya know

The only way Archie could have lost is if he said he was pulling for the Saints. Even Saints fans would have turned on him for that. Family is family. If Archie Manning showed up in a Mardi Gras parade in New Orleans, the city and the fans would still cheer him.

This is coming from a guy that in 1980, living in North Dakota, would wear a Archie Manning jersey every Friday at school, and getting teased mercilessly for it. I had one teacher that used to call me "Archie". The Saints went 1-15 that year.

Archie Manning will always be loved by Saints fans.

What allegiance did Archie have with the Pats? I think you read the post wrong or are you missing a few crooked chromosomes?

THEGREAT30 · 02-08-10, 11:56 PM

He was pulling for Indy and Saints won. He was pulling for NYG and NYG won so what is your logic?

tltaylor89 · 02-09-10, 12:01 AM

Peyton will compete even harder this year

I gues he thinks hes a jinx because Archie`s Saints were horrible, Archie wanted the Colts

But most of all- Archie is a "GINGER"

ClimbSomeRocks · 02-09-10, 12:27 AM

yup it's all about the luck charms. If only payton would have rubbed his rabbit's foot 14 times instead of 13 he wouldn't have thrown that interception

tltaylor89 · 02-09-10, 12:28 AM

beam me up Archie

There was no "who are you pulling for Archie in that Super Bowl?" Pats versus Giants, was Archie's son versus someone else. The question was asked for this Super Bowl. Colts versus Saints, Archie's son versus the team that Archie is or has been the face of for 30+ years. Does anyone really think that when you think of New Orleans football now that Archie will be ahead of Brees and Sean Payton?. Get real. I really feel that having to explain this makes me a special ed teacher.

DOMINATER · 02-09-10, 09:29 PM

patriot fans are changing their pants every two hours they say BRADYS the best

DOMINATER · 02-09-10, 09:32 PM

hanco21 · 02-09-10, 09:33 PM

Well put. That's a really shitty situation to be in.

seaborneq · 02-10-10, 10:10 AM

Why is this so over everybody's head? About as simple as can be.

seaborneq · 02-15-10, 07:39 AM

Has anyone heard from Archie the expatriot this week in New Orleans?

whatsgood5 · 02-15-10, 12:22 PM

Haven't heard anything from him recently fortunately

Think he is still the Crescent City's favorite son? I hope not.
