Rob Lowe is Tweeting That Peyton Manning Will Retire
All, NFL, Television, Twitter January 18th. 2012, 4:00pm
Parks & Recreation’s Rob Lowe has tweeted that Peyton Manning will retire from the NFL. While it will stink to see one of the best quarterbacks in NFL history hang it up, it’s absurdly amazing to see Chris Traeger break the news before Jay Glazer or anyone from ESPN.
Is this real? Did someone troll or hack Rob Lowe? Does it matter? If nothing else, this is proof that the Internet is an unstoppable force of awesomeness that can immediately combine sports, news, entertainment, celebrity and anything else you can imagine in the blink of an eye.

Hey wait a second fat boy. You lost your shares to the bank.
January 18th, 2012 at 4:12 PM
And what did Marky Mark do?
said if he was on one of the hijacked planes on 9/11 he would have fought the terrorists off and landed the plane.
January 18th, 2012 at 4:12 PM
Said he could have stopped 9/11. This was after several lines of blow and practicing karate chops in the mirror I’m guessing.
January 18th, 2012 at 4:13 PM
Rob Lowe knows where Craig James buried those 5 hookers.
January 18th, 2012 at 4:13 PM
Peyton couldn’t have stopped 9/11 because the terrorists went to flight school in Florida.

He stopped the 9/11 attacks. Or at least thats how it plays out when he imagines himself on one of those planes.
January 18th, 2012 at 4:15 PM
I can’t believe how little I care about soccer anymore.
January 18th, 2012 at 4:15 PM
Rob Lowe saw Craig James kill his first hooker.

Speaking of Emilio Estevez, other than “Bobby”, I can’t recall him being in a movie since he was killed in an elevator shaft towards the beginning for the first Mission: Impossible. I know he’s been in other movies, but I just recall a single one of them.

Also he never gave up.

January 18th, 2012 at 4:29 PM
Again, may I point out that Rob Lowe is 7000 times better looking than all of those people. He had a complete career recovery after a sex tape came out, for fuck’s sake. Why? Because he’s hot.

Anthony Michael Hall still works, it’s just that he had that weird transformation away from looking like a nerd before Edward Scissorhands so you don’t even realize that he’s the newsman in The Dark Knight

How is Mark Walberg getting a pass in this — claiming to land a plane is beyond ridiculous. I don’t even think he’s portrayed a pilot.

How is Mark Walberg getting a pass in this — claiming to land a plane is beyond ridiculous. I don’t even think he’s portrayed a pilot.
I’ve heard pilots being interviewed that said it might be possible for a civilian to land a plane if they were talked through it. Everything’s automated. Doesn’t make what MM said any less dumb though.
January 18th, 2012 at 4:32 PM
We’re gonna do all kinds of dumb stuff. We’re family.
