Manning: Voice of the Denver airport

Found December 18, 2012 on Next Impulse Sports: Yardbarker Blogger Network
PLAYERS: Peyton Manning,  John Elway
TEAMS: Denver Broncos

Via Cosby Sweaters:

Normally, passengers arriving at Denver International Airport are welcomed by mayor Michael Hancock’s voice, wishing them well on their stay in the Mile High City.  The mayor, however, has changed all that with his new star of the airport.

Broncos quarterback Peyton Manning is the DIA voice of the holidays, running now through January 2.

“Welcome to the Mile High City,” he says. “This is quarterback Peyton Manning of the Denver Broncos, wishing everyone a wonderful holiday season.” The message plays over a piano tapping out the tune “Jingle Bells”

Mayor Hancock said this about the change:

“For the holidays, I am handing off this very important duty of greeting visitors to our great city to someone known for the best audibles in the business.  Peyton Manning earned this call by going long in his efforts to take the Broncos to another AFC West championship. We’ll be cheering on him and the team as they drive toward another Super Bowl!”

Last year, none other than Denver deity John Elway was the recording saying, simply, “Go Broncos!”

Denver Broncos, an emerging powerhouse

Via The Penalty Flag  |  December 17, 2012
Yesterday, I watched in awe as the Denver Broncos dismantled the Baltimore Ravens 34-17 in Baltimore. And the game wasn’t as close as the score would indicate. With their ninth straight victory, this one against one of the best AFC teams, the Broncos are becoming an NFL powerhouse. The Broncos dominated the first half building a 10-0 lead. It was only because of the exceptional...

Indy hoping to make most of 2nd chance at playoffs

Indy (9-5) can earn its first playoff berth of the post-Peyton Manning era with a win Sunday at Kansas City or a Steelers loss to Cincinnati. The Colts want to take care of business themselves after a sub-par performance at Houston. The Colts are 8-3 since Bruce Arians took over as...

On a day when a Baltimore defense inundated with injury was able to give Peyton Manning everything he could handle and more, the Ravens offense did not show up like the cavalry they were supposed to be. In fact, Flacco and company gave points away to Denver. It was a disgraceful performance. It wasn't all on Joe Flacco, although Joe admitted after the game the pick-6 he...

Roethlisberger Apologizes for Speaking the Truth

Peyton Manning once ripped his ‘idiot kicker’ on national television and I don’t recall him apologizing to the Colts’ organization over it. He also ripped his offensive line a couple of times following tough losses and while he apologized to them privately, he did not do so publicly to them or his organization. Broncos’ legend John Elway used to tear into his receivers...

Who Says the MVP is Reserved for Quarterbacks?

Via The Sports Headquarters  |  December 18, 2012
Peyton Manning. Tom Brady. Aaron Rodgers. All of these quarterbacks have claimed MVP awards since the last running back – LaDainian Tomlinson – took home the honor in 2006. In what is largely considered a passing league, is 2012 the year this streak ends? Through 15 weeks of the season I am inclined to say yes. Because truly no player has been as valuable as Minnesota Vikings’...
