- Peyton Manning back in Indy this weekend -

"It's no secret that Peyton Manning is a huge fan of country music. And he's a pretty philanthropic guy, too.

So, it makes perfect sense that the former Indianapolis Colts quarterback would come back to Indy for a fundraising gala, featuring country music artist Jake Owen.

Oh, and we should mention, it's a fundraiser for the Peyton Manning Children's Hospital at St. Vincent.

On Saturday, Manning and wife, Ashley, will be honorary chairpeople for the hospital's Celebration of Caring Gala, an annual fundraising event." ...

Broncos’ Peyton Manning already contemplating rematch with Colts -

"Peyton Manning still holds Indianapolis in a special place. Even if Denver is opening the season against his former team.

Two days after Manning found out his rematch with the Colts would be the first Sunday night game of the NFL’s season, the reigning MVP returned to town for a very different reason: to help host an annual fundraiser for the Peyton Manning Children’s Hospital at St. Vincent." ...

- Peyton Manning delights us all singing Johnny Cash's 'Folsom Prison Blues' -

"All right, this is just delightful. Peyton Manning held a charity gala over the weekend in Indianapolis, and now video has surfaced of Peyton singing "Folsom Prison Blues" with country star Jake Owen.

How well does Peyton "sing"? You can decide for yourself, but the guy is seriously hampered by the fact that the song doesn't have a single "OMAHA" in it. Plus, check out his (lack of) moves onstage. Come on, Peyton! Direct these guys like you do your wide receivers!" ...
