Peyton, Eli and Archie… but what about Cooper and Olivia?
The Manning family is to football what the Kennedy family is to politics. However, like the Kennedy’s, there are other names and faces behind the fame and glory that go unrecognized.
So, when Susie Wargin chatted with Archie Manning for the latest 6:20 Sidebar, she asked about his oldest son Cooper. While Cooper may not have a Super Bowl MVP award like Eli and Peyton, he has given his mom and dad something his brothers haven’t: grandkids. Three of them.
Archie and Olivia Manning still live in the New Orleans area and haven’t been back to their house since Gustav hit over the weekend. Archie seemed a bit nervous when telling Susie he hoped and thought everything was OK at their house. The Manning’s went through Hurricane Katrina 3 years ago and have done a lot in the fundraising arena since then to help out victims of the storm.
