Dear Mr. Manning...

Dear Mr. Manning,

I'm writing to you to BEG you to win the Superbowl. You see, we have an entire house full of animals who are going to be so sad if we have to watch Mommy use bad language or cry.

Mommy really loves the Colts. She's had pet birds with names like Cooper and Peyton. So far she hasn't named anything after your other brother, Eli...well...cuz she's still holding a grudge from the draft. But I know she likes him cuz he beat Tom Brady...so he's working his way into her good graces.

Every year the top of the Christmas tree is the Hallmark ornament of you. Mommy says you're the only star she needs on the top of her tree.

Please eat a good breakfast (maybe a bowl of Wheaties with you on the box??), take a little nap mid-day...and get out there and make us all proud! I know we're not the only house cheering for you. My pen-pal, Winston Beagle, is also on your side!

Good luck, and do Mommy another favor and smack that cute little Dallas Clark on the behind for her.

Kinzi

P.S....please don't ever pull a Brett Favre and retire, then not, then change teams, then retire, then not, then change teams...Mommy says if you do that she'll set fire to everything she has with your face or name on it. I know that's kind of drastic...but she loves her Colts...with or without you!...so just sign a contract extension...PLEASE!
