I don't feel any different than Tom Brady's daddy just because I played. I don't think I'm any different from any other father who's got a son out there playing.
Quote by -Archie Manning
I'm glad I got to play 15 years. I'm not scarred by the fact I didn't do better, or win more. I don't even talk about it, other people do.
Quote by -Archie Manning
I'm happy for my kids getting postseason opportunities, for both of them playing in the Super Bowl back to back. I never would have envisioned anything like that.
Quote by -Archie Manning
I'm very proud of high school, college and pro football, the strides have been made to make it a safer game.
Quote by -Archie Manning
I've always said, other than my dad, coaches had the greatest impact on me.
Quote by -Archie Manning
Frankly I've been in these situations where the locker room wasn't good. That's really the worst of times.
Quote by -Archie Manning
The worst part about getting in a rut in football is the weeks are so long.
Quote by -Archie Manning
We never knew we'd have kids playing pro football or going to Super Bowls. That wasn't ever a part of our plan in raising kids, so we really feel blessed.
Quote by -Archie Manning
Indianapolis is a great Midwestern city. Great people. Warm, friendly people.
Quote by -Archie Manning
The best we ever did was 8-8. But my career was not as dreadful as people make it out to be. You don't see any scars on Archie Manning.
Quote by -Archie Manning
The quarterbacks who are picked in the first round and are declared - and I don't like the word - busts, it's not that the scouts were wrong about their ability or their potential. But commitment is such a huge part of it.
Quote by -Archie Manning
Obviously, you have to have some physical ability to play quarterback in the NFL.
Quote by -Archie Manning
Drew Bledsoe is a great talent. He had some fantastic years early in his career.
Quote by -Archie Manning
When I see siblings in some families not get along, I just struggle with that. My wife says I need to be more real about it, but I just can't believe it when it happens.
Quote by -Archie Manning
As a family, we didn't get into the celebrity thing. That's not what we wanted for the boys. We wanted them to play everything they could, be involved in as many school events as they could.
Quote by -Archie Manning
There are all sorts of challenging conversations as a parent and it's never easy. I think the main thing is trying to be fair, sometimes there has to be a little bit of discipline, maybe even punishment involved in trying to make your child understand, learn from bad experiences and make sure they don't happen again.
Quote by -Archie Manning
That's the one thing before parenthood that no one really impressed upon me, that all of my children would be so different.
Quote by -Archie Manning
If you just make every effort to do the right thing, you'll come out ok. It comes down to priorities and making good decisions.
Quote by -Archie Manning
With Eli - and all of my sons - I wanted to impress that as they grow older, they are going to have important decisions to make and at decision time, you can't be 100% perfect, but try to evaluate things and do what's right.
Quote by -Archie Manning
Growing up in a small town of two thousand people, there wasn't too many ways to get in trouble. But I found some. We got caught stealing green plums from this old lady's yard.
Quote by -Archie Manning
When I showed interest in sports, my dad handled it right. I lost my dad when I was nineteen years old. Up until then, his policy on sports was that you can go out for any sport you want to - but don't even think about quitting. If you don't like it, you're going to stick it out.
Quote by -Archie Manning
My advice for parents is to support your children, make sure they are having fun. Support them and be there for them. Give them encouragement and make it a life lesson that along the way they are learning to make good decisions and do the right thing.
Quote by -Archie Manning
The best advice I try to give a young quarterback is, you need to know what you're doing. You need to know what you're doing, because if you know where to go with the football, you can get rid of it and throw it and you won't get hit.
Quote by -Archie Manning
We went to school board meetings, we went to Little League games, and we did everything to be normal.
Quote by -Archie Manning
I'm as proud as the next guy, but I've always been a little skeptical of the daddies who walk around talking about what great athletes their kids are.
Quote by -Archie Manning
TPC Louisiana, where the Zurich Classic is held, is an outstanding course.
Quote by -Archie Manning
I've always felt my wife had class and a lot more culture than I do, and I've seen that rub off on Eli.
