On Jamie Sharper and Eli Manning



MIAMI -- I’m working backwards on this one, but that’s why they call me the greatest investigative reporter of at least the past five minutes.I was standing in the media scrum around New Orleans safety Darren Sharper when he was asked about Indianapolis tight end Dallas Clark. At the end of his answer, Sharper said: “He’s a guy you have to watch out for. He’s Peyton’s -- I should say,Spain Euro Shirts, Eli’s -- go-to.”Eli?Based on the Pro Bowl ratings Sunday night,Greece Euro 2012 Shirts, I was one of the few people not watching the ESPN broadcast. So I missed Colts quarterback Peyton Manning refer to “Jamie Sharper” during a halftime interview. (Jamie is Darren’s older brother,euro 2012 shirt, the former Seattle and Houston linebacker.)A mistake? Obviously Sharper -- Darren -- didn’t think so. He went out of his way to mention Eli and was smirking as he said it.I wouldn’t go so far as to call it a war of words. Let’s just consider it two crusty veteran players engaging in some early-week mind games.
