First off, congratulations to Peyton Manning for picking up the "Walter Payton NFL Man of the Year" award on Friday. The award is given to the man that best demonstrates community service within the National Football League. Peyton won the award this year in recognition of his work with children and Hurricane Katrina victims.
Manning set up the PeyBack Foundation to help communities around Indianapolis and has worked with a national non-profit group that helps abused and neglected children. In addition, after Hurricane Katrina hit the Gulf Coast in August of 2005, he and brother Eli, the Giants quarterback, flew to Louisiana and delivered 30,000 pounds of relief supplies.
