Can't Get Enough

After backing up Peyton Manning for six boring years, Indianapolis Colts reserve quarterback Jim Sorgi decided that enough is enough. He was fed up with seeing the name "Manning" on a jersey. He wanted out.

So when his agent told him that another team was interested in him as their backup quarterback, he decided to jump ship and sign with them.

Just as he thought he would no longer see THAT name again, he could not be more wrong.

The reason? The New York Giants, the new team that he signed, have Eli Manning (Peyton's brother, in case you are wondering) as their starting quarterback, and Mario Manningham as one of their top wide receivers.

Cruel luck.

Moral of story? While DUI (driving under the influence) is bad, SUI (signing under your intuition) can be equally traumatic.
