Peyton Manning won four Most Valuable Player trophies in Indianapolis, led the Colts to the playoffs 11 of 13 years (including 9 straight seasons), won two conference titles and led the franchise to their first Super Bowl title in over 35 years. Yet, Indianapolis Colts Owner Jim Irsay was labeled “ungrateful” for Peytons work by Denver Broncos head coach John Fox for comments he made to USA Today about his former quarterback Tuesday. "You make the playoffs 11 times, and youre out in the first round seven out of 11 times. You love to have the Star Wars numbers from Peyton and Marvin (Harrison) and Reggie (Wayne). Mostly, you love this" Irsay said, pointing to his lone Super Bowl ring. Following the 2011 NFL season, which Manning missed entirely with neck injuries, Irsay and Colts made the decision to release Manning and draft Andrew Luck with the first overall pick in the 2012 draft. Irsay said he doesnt regret the move and claims Manning even told him to draft Luck. "Weve changed our model a little bit, because we wanted more than one (Super Bowl)" said Irsay, possibly alluding to the fact he did not believe Peyton would lead the team to another championship. Peyton Manning entered free agency in March 2012 and signed a five-year $96 million dollar contract with the Broncos. In the following season, Manning threw 37 touchdown passes and posted a passer rating of 105.8. Those numbers were second only to Mannings 2004 season in-which he set the NFL record for touchdowns (49) and passer rating (121.1) in a single-season. Manning also led the Broncos to a 13-3 record and a first round bye in the playoffs. In his rookie season, Luck threw for 4,374 yards with 23 touchdowns and 18 interceptions good for a passer rating of 76.5. Luck also took the Colts from a two-win team in 2011 to an 11-win squad that made the playoffs, which Manning failed to do in his initial season. Both the Broncos and Colts lost their first game in the playoffs. Manning and Luck were both named to the AFC Pro Bowl roster. Now, 19 months after his release, Peyton Manning returns to Indianapolis, the city his career will be always tied to, to play the quarterback who will always be compared to him. The Broncos enter as the clear favourite in this matchup with Peyton Manning on pace to break the NFL records for touchdowns and passer rating in a season (two titles hes lost since the 2004 season), while leading to the Broncos to an undefeated start. Perhaps the question shouldnt be who will win this matchup between Peyton and the Colts but rather who will win the proverbial war. Who do you think will finish with the greater legacy in Indianapolis, Andrew Luck or Peyton Manning? As always, its Your! Call. Vapormax Miglior Prezzo .

But Butler was needed late on Friday night and he delivered a pinch two-run homer with two outs in the eighth inning to send the Royals over the Cleveland Indians 6-4 for their fourth straight win. Carlos Santana homered twice for the Indians, who have lost five of six. Butler connected against John Axford, sending a drive over the Royals bullpen in left field. Butler was hitting just .200 in his previous 20 games with three extra-base hits and two RBIs. "As of late, the production definitely is not there," said Butler, who entered this season with a career .298 average. "Over my career, its there, but this game is about what youve done for me lately. If he (manager Ned Yost) thinks a guy matching up differently is better for the team, thats what hes got to do. Hes got a job to do putting the lineup out there. "Its just my job to prove I belong in there. Ive been in the league a long time. If you give up and get put in a situation like that, you dont compete. Im not going to give up." The Royals won a game of matchup moves.

Axford gave up the winning hit to Nori Aoki in the 14th inning in a 2-1 loss on Thursday. "Its obviously tough after the last two nights," Axford said. "It was just a bad pitch. I let it stay out over the plate. It was supposed to be away and it ended up in the seats."

Kelvin Herrera (2-2) pitched a scoreless eighth, and Aaron Crow worked around a leadoff double in the ninth to earn his second save in four chances. Royals closer Greg Holland, who had pitched in the three previous games, was unavailable. Perez, who had three hits, and Mike Moustakas had back-to-back home runs to open the second. It was the second time this season Perez and Moustakas hit consecutive homers, having also done it April 23 at Cleveland. "We like hitting in the hot air," Perez said. Royals rookie Yordano Ventura, tagged for six runs and nine hits in 4 1/3 innings in his previous start at Boston, left after 6 1/3 innings. He gave up three earned runs and struck out seven. Santana hit a solo homer in the fourth and a two-run shot in the sixth. "The first home run to Santana, Ace threw a pretty good pitch, a sinker down and away," Perez said. "The second one was in the middle in and up." Indians right-hander Josh Tomlin, who was 1-5 in his previous seven starts, was pulled after 5 1/3 innings.
