It looks like Jim Sorgi, longtime backup QB and bitch to Payton Manning, will not be returning to the Indianapolis Colts in 2010.
Best known for his post-season play, Sorgi has gladly accepted his role as Payton's verbal punching bag. In an attempt to keep Manning healthy for post season play, Sorgi has seen some regular season action, and prides himself on helping teams get to the playoffs. Not his team, of course.
Several teams are expected to be interested in Sorgi, including San Diego and Minnesota. When asked about his possible move to San Diego, QB Philip Rivers smiled, saying 'oh man, I can't wait to give that guy a wedgie.'
Payton Manning, on the other hand, isn't as much worried about losing Sorgi. Manning called a local Indianapolis radio station Friday morning to weigh in on his thoughts on Sorgi.
'Well, you know, Jimmy did get me out of a couple of jams, um, took an ass whooping or two for me. Unfortunately for him, you know, I'm Payton Manning, and I'm not going to say he was bad, but he just wasn't very good.'
When asked about the likely promotion of backup Curtis Painter, Payton recalled the first time he saw Painter.
'I didn't even know Curtis was on the team really. When he went out in the Jets game last season, I thought, you know - that ball boy is calling plays, but then again, you know, I'd never seen that guy in my life. Um, you know. Then they told me, um, you know, he was on the team. I'd just never paid attention I guess.'
Notice who bails Payton out of this one.

Who says there can be only one?
Longtime thespian, Roger Daltrey, best known for his reoccurring character 'Hugh Fitzcarn' in the critically acclaimed show Highlander The Series, took the world's biggest stage this past Sunday night by performing during the much hyped Super Bowl Half-Time show.
While his music talents have always taken a back seat to his acting, Daltrey showed the world Sunday, that he is by no means a one trick pony. Accompanied by a band called, 'The Who', Daltrey breezed through several show tunes, including a song about a guy who with a talent for playing Pinball. There is some speculation that the song 'Pinball Wizard' is a homage to his second cousin, Leo Daniels, who was a London legend in the 70's.
Daltrey would not confirm any more musical appearances, although, it's safe to say that more than a few labels have already shown interest. In other news, Daltrey said there is talk of another Highlander movie in the works. Since his character was killed off in the third season of the show, Daltrey was questioned about his role in the movie. He responded by saying 'Hey, it's Highlander, right mate? I was damn well in season 6, wasn't I?'
