If Peyton Manning’s partnership with Bud Light left you feeling disappointed, you’re certainly not alone. Numerous fans expressed their discontent through letters and emails to the former NFL star, conveying their disappointment with his decision. However, Manning remained steadfast, choosing to proceed with the Bud Light deal despite the backlash from his supporters.
Less than a year later, Manning finds himself facing a significant loss in endorsement deals, amounting to millions. “Nobody calls for speaking engagements anymore,” he lamented. “On top of that, my autograph has plummeted in value.” In stark contrast, an authenticated signature of Tom Brady commands nearly $80,000.
Reflecting on his choices, Manning expressed regret: “I should have remained loyal to Papa John and stayed true to my conservative roots,” he confided to ALLOD Sportsball Journalisticator Tara Newhole. “Perhaps then, I wouldn’t be entangled in this predicament.”
The adage “Go woke, go broke” has become increasingly validated over time, Peyton. Just examine the track record. Kathy Griffin: broke. Garth Brooks: broke. Alyssa Milano: broke. It seems Manning is poised to join that unfortunate club soon.
Manning suffered a blow in endorsements from prestigious platforms like the Joe Rogan Experience and Fox News’ The Five, renowned for its lineup of trusted names in cable news, with few exceptions. James Woods even expressed a peculiar desire to see Kate Beckinsale, reminiscing about her role in Pearl Harbor. “She was so captivating,” he mused, “those freckles were truly something.” Indeed, Beckinsale’s beauty and distinctive features are remarkable. God bless them, and God bless America.
