It was stupid and dumb. It was also 20 years ago and for all intents and purposes, settled.
Anyone who truly reaches greatness in ultra-competitive fields like sports, business etc, are prone to being assholes. It's just a part of how they are wired.
If we had the social media and communication skills we have now back in the 20s, 30s etc our "heroes" wouldn't be heroes. But assholes, just like all of the modern players.
Peyton then kept his nose clean for 20 years. He earned his reputation.
Seems silly to me to punish him for something 20 years ago that was stupid and immature but not a terrible crime that deserves jail time or anything.
FYI, the original complaint by the lady involved never mentioned contact with any part of Peyton...that came much later.
