Peyton among doubters of Favre retirement
http://blogs.usatoday.com/gameon/2008/05/peyton-among-do.html
Among the many things noted multi-tasker Peyton Manning enjoys doing is sending respectful congratulatory letters to NFL notables who have retired, like Steve McNair, Curtis Martin and Frank Wycheck in recent seasons.
But this just in: Manning elected not to waste a postage stamp on Brett Favre.
Mike Chappell of the Indianapolis Star reports Manning held off on penning a note to Favre, who still hasn't filed his official retirement papers with the NFL.
"Like everybody else, I guess we'll see what happens this fall,'' Manning told the Star. "In a lot of ways I kind of hope (he returns). Brett's a guy that's been such an influence on me and all young quarterbacks . . . I guess part of it is kind of hope, maybe, that he finds his way back in the NFL this year.''
