Opinion = fact. Anecdote = proof. Political label more important than either of those.

he shouldn't have to give Manning the number. Manning shouldn't be a classless douche, he should speak up and say "Nah man, I'll take #16, my old college number."

He needs to honor the old guy by respecting his number being retired. This is just taking advantage of the elderly guy. If he was dead and unable to say "Oh go ahead and wear it" what would Denver management do?

I've always thought Manning to be kind of douchy, at least from his interviews. This pretty much confirms it

who cares? retiring a number is dumb, "eventually" you will have to un-retire them.

Not really. The requirements to retire one increases exponentially.

After talking personally with Frank Tripucka in the last half hour or so, new Broncos quarterback Peyton Manning will wear No. 18 in Denver.
The number had been retired since Tripucka retired in 1963.
“It’s perfectly OK for him to go ahead and use it,’’ Frank Tripucka said last week from his New Jersey home. “I would be honored to have him wear it.’’
Tripucka’s No. 18 is one of three numbers retired by the Broncos. The others are Floyd Little’s No. 44 and John Elway’s No. 7. Manning wore No. 18 during his first 14 seasons with the Indianapolis Colts.
“It’s been retired for 50 years,’’ Tripucka said. “That’s long enough.’’

They didn't just give him Tebow's number already?
