A very athletic quarterback, the 6-3, 212-pound Manning played at the University of Mississippi and was chosen by the New Orleans Saints in the first round of the 1971 NFL college draft. He became a starter before the end of his rookie season and in his second year, 1972, he led the league with 448 passing attempts and 230 completions. Playing for a poor team, Manning had to pass a great deal, which probably caused the severe tendinitis in his right shoulder that kept on the sidelines for the entire 1976 season.
United Press International named Manning the National Football Conference player of the year in 1978, when he completed 291 of 471 passes for 3,416 yards and 17 touchdowns.During the 1982 season, Manning was traded to the Houston Oilers and he went to the Minnesota Vikings the following year. He retired after the 1984 season.
Manning finished third in the Heisman Trophy voting in his senior year. Two of his sons, Peyton and Eli, are also quarterbacks who came close to the Heisman. Peyton finished second in the voting in 1997, his senior season at Tennessee, and Eli finished third in 2003, his senior year at Mississippi.

Archie Manning was a fucking great quarterback, although I never got to see him play (as I'm only 17), I have seen videotaped games from when my father was my age, and some highlights of his amazing career. Please don't talk shit about somebody when you know nothing about that person.

Get the Archie Manning mug.Mayling is a great friend who always makes everyone smile. She helps people as much as possible. When she tries to hold a grudge, she usually fails because of her forgiving nature. Not only that, she is super generous. Maylings are awesome!

Get the Ant-Manning mug.The funniest/manliness piece of literature mankind has ever read. Perhaps it will be looked back on as the manliest book of all time.
To quote the author, Maddox (creator of "The Best Page in the Universe... www.maddox.xmission.com), here's an exerpt and commentary from/about his book:
"This is the only sentence in the entire book that will give you a chance to adjust your face; take your time, because it’s about to be rocked off — permanently.
Finally, a book that guarantees your balls will be stomped; a book so manly that it will make even the burliest of men (and in some cases, the burliest of women) feel inadequate. So manly, it needs to be shaved: The Alphabet of Manliness. This collection of sacred writings may very well be the greatest compilation of all things manly throughout history. Here’s a small sample of the ass-kickery found within these revered pages of outright manliness:
* People getting drop-kicked in the face
* Phallic aggression
* Violence in excess of what has come to be known as excessive
* Garish disregard for the well-being of children
* Contempt for animals, women, and other cultures
* Intimidating rhetoric
* Obscure penile references
* The triumph of flannel over good taste"

Chapter "R" for Restroom Etiquette from The Alphabet of Manliness states:
"RULE 1: Don't Gawk At the Cock
If you look at a man's penis at a urinal, the packets of light known as photons are bouncing off his dick and are being directly absorbed into your eyes. You wouldn't drip visine into your eyes that has dripped off another man's balls would you??"
