I think with that report out the Cardinals needed a sure answer before heading into it. I think now that Kolb is still on roster they're officially out.

(31,177 posts)6. WTF? They denied interest in Manning from the outset
What was there to gain by doing that?
El Supremo
(20,365 posts)8. Alex Smith can now commiserate with Timmy Tebow.
Smith isn't signed yet?
No. And Smith and Manning share the same agent.
Ya' know, Smith could also end up in ... Denver.
El Supremo
(20,365 posts)10. Same agent as Timmy!
madinmaryland
(64,933 posts)11. Timmy is going to be pitching for the Rockies this year??
Light a big fat one up, El!

(20,365 posts)12. Will Manning's back up at Tennessee be quarterbacking the Broncos?
Same ridiculous assumption.
You don't know who I mean, do you?

(64,933 posts)13. Timmy will be pitching for the triple A team in Nashville?
I always thought you and Upton were related.
