- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5"Manning" by Archie and Peyton Manning was about a football family dynasty. Archie was a quarterback for the New Orleans Saints back in the 70s and early 80s, and while he was a good player the Saints weren't a great team and he ended up never having a winning season or going to the Super Bowl, something both of his sons have now done. The book was written in 2000, when Eli first started college at Ole Miss, and Peyton had just finished his second season with the Colts, so it begs to be updated. It sounds like Archie and Olivia Manning were great parents, and they raised three great and highly talented kids.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5An interesting look at the world of Manning in the NFL when it was only Archie and Peyton - Eli was still at Ole Miss when this was published. It was a very interesting look into the family, the raising of the boys and how that shaped their football careers. In New York, far removed from some of the insanity of college football I could not believe the death threats that the Mannings received when Peyton chose to go to Tennessee.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5A story about football and family. Sound a little hokey? Maybe. But Manning is a really enjoyable story about a very solid family in the world of professional sports, a world in which class is at a premium. I live in Oxford, where Archie Manning is revered next to God, but he seems to have remained really genuine and grounded. The surprise star of the book, however, is Cooper, who comes off as quite the charmer.
