Manning lawsuit

[SunsetBengal]

I find it quite ironic that winning the Super Bowl, in what was assumed to be the swan song of a future H.O.F. QB, that these alleged sexual assault lawsuits are just now being discovered. All of this information has been available for years. Why bring it up, when the guy is getting ready to retire? I have a lot of respect for Peyton Manning's football accomplishments, but could never be accused of being a "fan", as he always played for teams that I had no rooting interest in. Personally, I see this as an ugly smear campaign by a sportswriter just trying to build his own reputation.

How do you see it?
