When I watched the clips of Peyton Manning on SNL this weekend, I realized there was a really, really obvious monologue joke that he had an opening to make, but didn't. But, it turns out, he did, says the Boston Herald's Inside Track column:
"What do Tom Brady and the circus have in common?” Peyton said Joe asked him. “They both have two more rings than you.” Well, according to former ESPN.com writer Dan Shanoff, that was not how the joke originally went. In the dress rehearsal, Burlington homegal Amy Poehler was dressed in a Pats jersey and she is the one who delivered the “two more rings than you” line.Posted by Stephen Silver at March 29, 2007 05:36 PM
To which, Peyton replied “That’s not the ONLY thing he’ll have two more of . . .”
I thought the obvious thing Manning should have done was rag on Carrie Underwood for her boyfriend fumbling away the playoffs.
Of course, maybe to people in Romo's world, that's not funny yet.
