New Mannings sports restaurant opening downtown

Sure, I'll explain since the link no longer works.
Manning, in lieu of paying his property taxes in NO, made donations to the city assessor's office. This is not disputed. Essentially, Manning ripped the city off for who knows how many thousands of dollars for who knows how many years. He wasn't the only rich scumbag to do this, but he is the one who portrays himself as Saint Awchie, a person who really cares about the city. He is a parasite who has made his living off the people of NO. When I see the state of disrepair in my city, I cannot help but think how much better things could be if we didn't have cretins like this stealing from the public. So I have no irrational, unfounded dislike of him; unlike others, who do have an irrational, unsubstantiated belief that Manning was a 'great' NFL qb and really a nice aww shucks kind of guy. THAT is the distortion, not mine.
