By the same token I don't understand why some deify the Mannings just because the old man played for the Saints 50 years ago.


And I've never understood why Archie gets a pass for how much the Saints sucked back in the day. Archie was the quarterback, and if he was as good as everyone says he was, he would have found a way. The game is different, but by the same token, Joe Burrow overcame a crap offensive line this year. And Archie had skill people and a good offensive line around him in '78 and '79 to be be better than 7-9 and 8-8. I've seen enough Archie highlights from back in the day to know he was a part of the problem, not the solution.

1) Archie is an Ole Miss Goober
2) Eli is an Ole Miss son of a goober
3) Peyton is a Tenn hillbilly goober
4) Cooper is a broke neck goober
5) They all sold their souls to gambling and Ceasers.

Archie and Eli played at Ole Miss. LSU doesn't like Ole Miss. There's your history lesson

Archie went to Ole Miss
Big rival in those days
Archie hates LSU
Desperate Saints fans love the Manning’s
They have rightfully made a fortune but nothing that has helped New Orleans (i.e. Drew Brees philanthropy).

No Manning has ever or will ever play at LSU. So frick em!

There is your history lesson

I'm not even following Arch's recruiting. I could care less. He'll go somewhere besides LSU so best of luck.

We broke Archie's arm or rebroke it in 1970. I think we scored over 60 points.

who gives a shite where they were raised they’re Ole Miss thru and thru.


And we are LSU thru and thru. There’s your answer in all of this.

Like if you are a saints and lsu fan, why the frick would you have rooted for say… the giants? Because Eli played there? No frick that.

At one time, many years ago when Archie was at Ole Miss, the rivalry between the 2 schools was very heated. I remember playing golf in Natchez..Perry Lee Dunn was with us on the first tee. It's funny what you remember..of course I had to mention LSU.

The Manning’s are Louisiana sell outs. I know Archie is from miss. His kids aren’t. Wish they would move to Alabama or Texas.

On that note, my podnuh's daughter (no pics) comes from a multigeneration LSU family but goes to Ole Miss. Sunday on her Instagram she's wearing a Joe Burrow LSU jersey. No. You turn your back on your roots, you don't get to be a situational fan.

The Rant’s hatred of the Manning family is directly related to how the Manning’s feel about LSU.

Pretty sure its the Mannings that have always seemed to have an issue with LSU. Not the other way around.

Arch will make the 4th highly rated Manning from NOLA that doesn't even consider LSU as an option. Its one thing for Peyton to go to UT bc LSU sucked at that time & UT was at its peak Phillip Fulmer era. BUT ELI to Ole Miss just made it clear that the Mannings have absolutely ZERO love for the Tigers so I say this LOUDLY & PROUDLY: the whole Manning family can STTDB!!!!
