If I was them I would not care what the fans felt about my "legacy".  I would play as long as I could make a team even as a back up.

But Manning is not just old.  He is beaten up.  He has had multiple operations on his neck.  There is no way he should risk further injury.

I read a column by a guy who described him getting out of his equipmen after a game.  Took more than half an hour for him to do so.  
You can go to live in France, but you cannot become a Frenchman. You can go to live in Germany or Turkey or Japan, but you cannot become a German, a Turk, or a Japanese. But anyone, from any corner of the Earth, can come to live in America and become an American
