Touch Downl NFL

This announcement isn’t a shock because Manning had probably the greatest offensive performance in 2013 of any player in the history of the National Football League.

I can't begin to explain how uncomfortable it is to watch this guy talk about how he'll be pulling for Tom Brady and the Patriots in the Super Bowl this weekend. "Go Patriots," he says, with a pump of his fist. It is a disaster.

The extra point is the nonalcoholic beer of football : nobody asked for it in the first place ; nobody has ever gone to a game for one ; nobody really wants it around ; but since it doesn't do much harm , it's hung around for decades now . NFL Total Access's Rich Eisen called the extra point the "penny" of the NFL , and that too seems pretty appropriate .
