Jamaal Charles Asked for Peyton Manning’s Autograph and Dwayne Bowe Got a Photo with Manning After Losing to the Broncos
Peyton Manning and the Broncos beat the Chiefs, 17-9 Sunday, despite a sub-par effort from the future Hall of Famer. Then Manning walked out of the tunnel toward the team bus to get to the airport and was stopped by … Jamaal Charles of the Chiefs. Beef? Nope. Charles wasn’t looking for a fight, but rather an autograph. It starts at the 1:08 mark in the above video. Charles claims his mom wanted the autograph.
Neal Jones of KCTV 5 in Kansas City has video of Manning giving Charles his autograph, and the Denver QB posing for a photo with Dwayne Bowe of the Chiefs. I’m sure Charles and Bowe will get grilled about this today in Kansas City, and it’ll be radio fodder nationally until something else happens (arrest, another Adderall suspension, the Lakers trading Gasol, NHL lockout ending, etc).
I’m not sure what would compel ridiculously wealthy athletes in their prime time to get the autograph of one of their opponents, but hey, my Dad’s a fan of Mike Wilbon and the first thing he asked me after I told him about sitting next to Wilbon on a flight to Indianapolis about five years ago was, “did you get his autograph?”
I can’t fault Bowe for wanting a photo – this is a guy who got a photo with Jessica Alba after interviewing her on a boat to the Statue of Liberty.
Charles and Bowe will have another chance to defeat Manning – Dec. 30th in the regular season finale.

And now you have to post that picture again
November 27th, 2012 at 10:34 AM
People still get autographs? I’d think cell phone photo would’ve replaced it by now.
November 27th, 2012 at 10:37 AM
peyton manning is one of the greatest of all time in his industry who’s seen by millions upon millions of people every week while a mike wilbon sighting is…a metaphorical version of your highlight layup in pick up hoops.
November 27th, 2012 at 10:38 AM
Ah what the hell, their kid(s) probably enjoyed it.
November 27th, 2012 at 10:39 AM
Assuming it’s for his Mom, why not? Achieving success opens the door for opportunities you wouldn’t otherwise have, and to do things for people that weren’t previously possible. At least his Mom is reasonable. Mine wants a goddamn Lamborghini Gallardo.
November 27th, 2012 at 10:40 AM
Closest celebrity encounter I had was with Dunta Robinson. Really wanted to call him out for being the shitty corner that he is. But I’m too much of a coward and weaseled out.
November 27th, 2012 at 10:41 AM
You must be really rich for your mom to seriously ask for that car. I don’t think she would’ve asked if you were the branch manager of a U-Haul franchise.
November 27th, 2012 at 10:42 AM
probably a good idea…he mightve launched himself head first into your sternum.
closest celeb encounter i had was when i impressed john mayer with a shreddy lick at the dallas guitar show in 2006. was playing an old gibson super 400…butter.
November 27th, 2012 at 10:44 AM
Peyton Manning has unequivocally earned the right to bang their women with this cowardly fawning display, basically signed the deed to their vaginas.
November 27th, 2012 at 10:44 AM
Everyone who has run into John Mayer says that he is a massive douche. I totally believe them based on his past interviews.
November 27th, 2012 at 10:45 AM
“Hey kid…the sign clearly fucking says, “No Stairway to Heaven”. is being impressed?
November 27th, 2012 at 10:45 AM
Closest celebrity encounter I had was with Dunta Robinson
Weren’t you in a bar when this happened? I feel like I’ve heard that story long ago here
November 27th, 2012 at 10:46 AM
Closest celebrity encounter I had was with Dunta Robinson. Really wanted to call him out for being the shitty corner that he is. But I’m too much of a coward and weaseled out.
mine was spring break 99. motley crue was playing in south padre, and vince neil has just rejoined. i was on the beach heading back to the pool to make another drink, and i saw vince and tommy sitting by the pool. i ran over to them with widesmile, and got pummelled by two security types. as they gently escorted me away, i screamed to VN that he was so much better than that john corabi assface who briefly replaced him (MC was my favorite band when i was 10). I got a thumps up from vince, and it took 23 months for my erection to subside.
November 27th, 2012 at 10:47 AM
i got no inkling one way or the other based on my encounter other than seeing him gawk like all the other cement-fingered troglodytes.
November 27th, 2012 at 10:48 AM
I had beers with DB Sweeney the other day. Does that count as a celeb encounter?
November 27th, 2012 at 10:48 AM
south padre
Went there for Senior Trip. Turns out it isn’t as fun if it’s not spring break and you’re the only group of kids on the entire island. We had fun though, just not as much as a sr. trip probably should be
November 27th, 2012 at 10:49 AM
Yeah. I was with 2 of my friends watching the France-Spain European Championship game. Both of my friends are huge Falcons fans and went up to him to take pictures. Apparently he was extremely nice. I stayed away from him. What was I gonna do? Go up and tell him that I’m a fan? If you can’t say anything nice………
November 27th, 2012 at 10:49 AM
Hmmmm.
November 27th, 2012 at 10:50 AM
I met both Jerry Springer and Michael Buffer the same day in Beverly Hills a few years back. Springer was incredibly nice, buffer was a dickhead.
November 27th, 2012 at 10:50 AM
The only outrage Chiefs fans are going to feel this year is if they manage to win another game, or Hunt doesn’t fire Romeo and Pioli.
November 27th, 2012 at 10:50 AM
Can’t imagine why anyone would have a problem with this. If he says it’s for his mom, how can we doubt that?
I’ve heard of athletes asking other athletes for autographs in some sports where, a player might have some charity event and they use the autograph items from other players as auction fodder for their charity or for a 50/50 drawing.
November 27th, 2012 at 10:52 AM
Long list that ranges from Jani Lane to King Hussein of Jordan, but I’ll go with Eric Clapton in a wine shop. A.) Clapton know wine. B.) He’s quite dickish.
November 27th, 2012 at 10:53 AM
This is why athletes hate the media. Nontroversy over nothing.
November 27th, 2012 at 10:53 AM
I once had a length discussion with Hugh McColl about nuclear deterrence, he told me he envied me. Not every day that one of the richest and most powerful men in the south tells you that. Naturally I was lit at the time.
November 27th, 2012 at 10:53 AM
i was in seattle in 91 for a family vacation. i was OBSESSED with mark mcguire, and had an a’s hat with mcguire on the back. the a’s were in town, and i was getting on the elevator at our hotel when mcguire and eckersley got on. i asked mark to sign my hat, and he cussed at me. i was 10, and have hated him ever since.
November 27th, 2012 at 10:55 AM
You can’t just sign the deed over on women like chattel, that be wrong.
November 27th, 2012 at 10:55 AM
Chalk up another save for The Eck!
November 27th, 2012 at 10:55 AM
In my experience, these two traits are not totally unrelated.
November 27th, 2012 at 10:55 AM
holy shit.
November 27th, 2012 at 10:56 AM
I’ve got nothing, outside of shaking a few hands and exchanging pleasantries at card shows as a kid, but obviously that doesn’t count. I’m as boring in real life as I am on here.
November 27th, 2012 at 10:56 AM
Eh, fuck ‘em!

Mine was holding a parabolic mic 10 feet from Greg Schiano yelling at a ref during a Rutgers WV game.

November 27th, 2012 at 10:57 AM
Closest I had was in London and I met the guy from Office Space and Vinny Delpino (from Doogie Howser). They were filming Band of Brothers. We got wasted and they paid for it.
November 27th, 2012 at 10:57 AM
Also Rusty Wallace, Jeff Gordon, Tony Stewart, Ward/Jeff Burton, Joe Gibbs, most of those NASCAR fucknuts (worked as a cashier in the grocery store across the street from the industrial park where all their team offices are headquartered). They’re all midgets.
November 27th, 2012 at 10:57 AM
I’d love to meet Bill Clinton. One of my friend worked for the Obama campaign in Florida and she got to meet him and take pictures.

A.) Clapton know wine.
Isn’t he an alcoholic?
November 27th, 2012 at 10:58 AM
Mike McMahon (ex OB of the Lions and Eagles) lived next door to me when I was a kid. Beat that.
November 27th, 2012 at 10:59 AM
I occasionally watch his show thru youtube. Seems like a nice guy.

dont care how old of a joke it is but whats the difference between a baby and a bag of cocaine? eric clapton wouldn’t let the bag of cocaine fall off a balcony.
November 27th, 2012 at 11:00 AM
I know wine and…wait. When it comes to discussing wine, I go as unpretentious as possible. Shit’s intimidating as fuck, so why make it even more so? If I have to bore the shit out of someone with “hints of cedar, tobacco, and shoe leather”, you can be sure I’ll work in “cat urine, sweat, and gym sock” to set people at ease.
November 27th, 2012 at 11:00 AM
my old roommate in texas had fred funk walk in on him and his gf using a port-o-potty for some afternoon delight at the colonial tourney a while back.

Also, my best celebrity story involved Terry Bradshaw.
This would have been sometime in the early to mid 80′s. My hometown of Canton, Kansas is a town of about 900 people or so, and my dad worked at one of the grain elevators in town, ran by a man named Dwayne Walker, who also was big into horses. He had a couple of studs that were somewhat prized by breeders, and made some pretty good money on them. Well one night my mom and dad are at the company Christmas party Dwayne was throwing, and all of the sudden there’s Terry Bradshaw. He’s looking to either buy a horse from Dwayne, or rent one of his studs services, something to that effect. As it turns out there’s some kind of big boxing match on that night that Terry really wants to see. This is still back in the days when HBO was still showing all the big time fights, but Dwayne doesn’t have HBO. But hey! We did.
So somewhere around 11:00 or so my dad comes and picks me up from my aunts, and we rush home to watch this boxing match, with Terry Bradshaw and his wife sitting on our living room floor. I got an autographed football out of the deal, which, because I was like 12, I took outside and played with the very next day.
November 27th, 2012 at 11:01 AM
Some friends and I ran into Bill Fichtner, the guy who played the investment banker in Heat, the blind guy in Contact, and a ton of other random roles at the bar in Hotel Zaza in Dallas about 7 years ago.
November 27th, 2012 at 11:01 AM
Probably because you insisted on spelling his name wrong, you little brat.
November 27th, 2012 at 11:01 AM
that’s pretty cool.
i totally could see adult terry bradshaw watching tv on the floor like a toddler watching sesame street.

I think most musicians did their best work when totally high. Clapton, Jimi, Janis, Jim Morrison, etc, etc.
November 27th, 2012 at 11:01 AM
Most people in the wine industry are. If they claim to always spit in the bucket, they’re lying.
November 27th, 2012 at 11:02 AM
W. Bush is an honorary member at my golf club. I didn’t play my Friday afternoon usual round one time and it happened to be when W. played a round with Matt Lauer, et al right in front of my group. They all got to meet him and take pictures. I only got to see them leaving when I pulled up to hit some balls later in the afternoon.
My friends said Matt Lauer pranced around the club like he thought he was hot shit.
November 27th, 2012 at 11:03 AM
That’s why you’re good people.

On a flight to Vancouver the entire Columbus Crew team was on the plane (flying in coach, what a league). Some South American player was sitting next to me and didn’t turn his blackberry off the entire flight. Doesn’t count though because MLS isn’t a real sport.
November 27th, 2012 at 11:05 AM

I had a feeling.

Didn’t Bill Evans introduce Miles and Coltrane to heroine while recording Kind of Blue? Let’s give credit where credit is due.
November 27th, 2012 at 11:09 AM
Impressive, I can neither play FIFA will nor manage a Madden team drunk. Woke up hungover to many a stupid trade and contract.
November 27th, 2012 at 11:10 AM
lol @ eskimo brothers…pretty cool on the golf stuff, your dad say if he was any good?
November 27th, 2012 at 11:10 AM
Lauer’s a douche. Uber-douche at that.
I’ve met several NASCAR drivers, Jeff Burton, Harry Gant, Rusty Wallace. All have been pleasant. Got to talk to Chocolate Meyers and Richard Childress at his shop about 7 years ago on a Monday after a race. Both took pictures and were seemed cool.
November 27th, 2012 at 11:10 AM
Some of these stories are great. Although, the McGwire one is the exact reason I’d be terrified to meet Joe Montana in real life. I like my childhood memories right where they are.
November 27th, 2012 at 11:10 AM
I saw Bert Blyleven at Chili’s one time.
November 27th, 2012 at 11:11 AM
Yeah he’s pretty good. My dad was playing with another guy at a public course in the Charlotte suburbs and it was busy so they were putting twosomes together, just happened to get put with him. I liked that Paul was playing public courses.
November 27th, 2012 at 11:11 AM

miles was a junkie going back to his days with charlie parker and coltrane was shooting smack before evans joined miles’ band.
November 27th, 2012 at 11:12 AM
holy shit that’s fuckin great. not surprised he’d be a good golfer either…basketball skills translate pretty well to golf.
November 27th, 2012 at 11:12 AM
Especially since Montana would charge you $15 for a handshake
November 27th, 2012 at 11:12 AM
I got to shake Bo Jackson’s hand once or twice while at Auburn. He’s a total recluse but he does a good job with it when he’s out in public, especially when in/around Auburn.

Ah, I had it backwards then. Evans picked it up from Miles. So I guess Bill Evans owes his stature to Miles Davis in more ways than one.
November 27th, 2012 at 11:13 AM
Ah, forgot to add Tyler Zeller at Disney World a couple of years ago. He was with his girlfriend and her parents. His was cool to allow me & my boy to get a picture with him. Not like he was hiding, he had UNC shorts, tshirt and carolina blue/white nikes on. Boy’s got the picture blown up and hanging in his room wearing his Goofy hat.

November 27th, 2012 at 11:14 AM
I met Mel Watt a few times, one of the most shady politicians in the Carolinas and the king of racial gerrymandering …. and of course he wears JNCOs and long white tshirts when he’s not on the job.
November 27th, 2012 at 11:14 AM
That’s cool
Some Raider fans might remember a WR from Texas Tech named Carlos Francis. I played with him when he was still in the League. He was pretty good. Had some good stories about playing with Janikowski out in California.
November 27th, 2012 at 11:15 AM

November 27th, 2012 at 11:15 AM
When I was on my honeymoon in Puerto Rico, I saw Luis Guzman at some fancy restaurant. Everyone is all dressed up, as you would expect. Not him, he’s wearing sweatpants and has two skanks sitting on his lap while he’s sitting in a loung area by the bar. Kinda awesome.
Also, I met Charles Barkely when I was in college. Seemed like a really nice guy.

Fair enough, perhaps I was simplifying things. I’ve gotten to speak to some senators. And be in the same room as Michele Bachmann.
November 27th, 2012 at 11:17 AM
Probably because you insisted on spelling his name wrong, you little brat.
after his dickhead display, he does not deserve to have his name spelled correctly.
November 27th, 2012 at 11:18 AM
That reminds me of opening the port-o-potty on Lorena Ochoa before the Super Bowl a few years back. She didn’t lock the door, and when I drunkenly walked up a few seconds later I went right to the only door with the green part showing. I quickly apologized and shut the door, at which point a large group of latino men a few feet away started laughing and asking me if I knew who that was. I didn’t, and they told me. I wouldn’t have believed them but when I came out of the next available port-o-potty a few minutes later she was busy signing autographs for them.
November 27th, 2012 at 11:19 AM
is anquan boldin a bigger star than john mayer? i played blackjack with him at the aria last year…dude’s big.
Eric Weddle, if he could remember, would +1 this.
November 27th, 2012 at 11:19 AM
I’ve mentioned it here before, but Jim Ross is awesome. I ate at his restaurant in OK once and he spent time talking to every table. I bet I talked wrestling with him for 15 minutes while my buddy sat there horrified because he had nothing to add.
November 27th, 2012 at 11:19 AM
The picture is completely normal. The autograph? A little awkward. But I can see his mom wanting an autograph from Peyton. All moms love Peyton Manning.
November 27th, 2012 at 11:19 AM
Basra Fahkir from Ohio U. dunked the shit out of me. That was in either freshman or JV hoops. I think I was also called for blocking. The worst.
November 27th, 2012 at 11:20 AM
this sentence will be in my brain until i die. amazing.
November 27th, 2012 at 11:20 AM
I also met Springer. Great guy. When I worked at the tv station I got to meet Fergie(Duchess of York) and Florence Henderson. Florence Henderson was sooo tiny and sweet! On my honeymoon flight to Hawaii I got to meet Michael Biehn.
November 27th, 2012 at 11:20 AM
All I got was Derrick Thomas and some Chiefs I don’t remember, but it was training camp and I was a kid, so it doesn’t really count.
All I really remember from it is getting one autograph from DT on a rookie card of his, then asking for another on the shirt I was wearing. He politely told me no, and then I made my sister ask for his autograph so I could have two of his anyway.
November 27th, 2012 at 11:21 AM
Spence and or other OSU fags: do you remember the name Derek Morris? Was an All American tackle commit to OSU around 2002/3 or so. Guy was a monster, six seven three fifty. We played HS football together and at the time I was playing JV and he had transferred from another school. He had eight inches and a buck sixty on me. The coach hating me as he did always put me up against him in hitting drills (I think he was practicing JV due to eligibility restrictions that year). Kid was single handedly the reason I stopped playing football, too many hits to the head.
He ended up losing his scholarship to OSU within a month of being there iirc.
November 27th, 2012 at 11:21 AM
And be in the same room as Michele Bachmann.
Did you spray yourself with stupid repellent.
November 27th, 2012 at 11:21 AM
i could not be more jealous…between navy SEALs, abyss, aliens and obvs the terminator, im a huge fan. way underrated.
November 27th, 2012 at 11:22 AM
My buddy almost got sat on by Darnell Sanders while taking a shit at the browns facility in Barea. Roger Dorn once threatened to shoot me. Good times.
November 27th, 2012 at 11:22 AM
No, but she and Gov. Jan Brewer (of Arizona immigration law fame) were hitting it off like long-lost sisters. It was amusing to watch.
This was at the RNC.
November 27th, 2012 at 11:23 AM
Roger Dorn once threatened to shoot me.
Did you fuck his wife too?
November 27th, 2012 at 11:23 AM
I have a picture of my sister and me with DT. Couldn’t have been more than 10. My mom is a big Chiefs fan and they used to do their radio show in the town I live in every Monday so we used to go. Real nice guy. Well….was……

Denise Austin. Very fit.

I bet they scissored later.
November 27th, 2012 at 11:23 AM
mole…dont remember the name, but that sounds horribly typical regarding playing HS football against D-1 monsters. i still remember getting PLASTERED by a dude who ended up going to PSU as a LB (sam ruhe if you remember the name…didnt do much there).
whatd he lose his scholly for?
November 27th, 2012 at 11:23 AM
Spend time with your kid, so Peyton Manning doesn’t
November 27th, 2012 at 11:23 AM
Actually his coach pulled him shortly afterwards when it was realized us uncoordinated white farm boys would probably hurt him unintentional.
November 27th, 2012 at 11:24 AM

Oh, and my sister also dated Jon Runyan in high school. He scared me because he was so big.
November 27th, 2012 at 11:25 AM
He was retarded.

Lorena Ochoa
That’s awesome. She could get it. And then teach me a few things on the course of golf and life

Pfft. I held my own against a kid who was recruited by BC.
He didn’t, you know, actually go there…but still.
November 27th, 2012 at 11:27 AM
he mustve literally been retarded to get kicked off OSU for academic reasons.

Roger Dorn once threatened to shoot me.
When a man asks you “ORIENTAL or SANTA FE” and you don’t give him a straight answer, that’s what happens.

Didin’t he end up at NC State during the McClendon/Rivers years?

I met Michael Jordan outside a golf shop at the hotel we were staying at while wearing Air Jordans and his caricature t-shirt. His first words? “Nice outfit” as he nodded his head in approval. Amazing moment.

Did you stop breathing? I would’ve for sure.

You wouldn’t last 10 strokes.
November 27th, 2012 at 11:32 AM
Yep. McClendon has done time in prison since then, what a man Chuck The Chest was.
Oh Columbus Dispatch, how prescient you were.
November 27th, 2012 at 11:34 AM

I’ve interviewed Lorena Ochoa before. And Natalie Coughlin. Couple of smokes.

It was surreal. He was getting ready to go golfing with a friend (think it was Dennis Hopson, who was already in the cart). He talked to me for a bit though, which came as a shock. Figured he’d be in a rush to sign.

It ended awkwardly when he tussled your hair and you went off, didn’t it?
November 27th, 2012 at 11:45 AM
Didn’t know Holly by name, but pics and this video, I’m a fan.

I once had a length discussion with Hugh McColl about nuclear deterrence, he told me he envied me. Not every day that one of the richest and most powerful men in the south tells you that. Naturally I was lit at the time.
Hugh was envious because he knew you were lit. Hugh was a BALLER back in the day – absolutely owned Charolotte.

Met the then-Marky Mark at an inaugural ball for the first Clinton admin. I said, hey, Marky Mark! And he said, hey buddy. Then I said, keep on livin’, man. Keep on livin’.
I was drunk. Also met PM Dawn that night. And Uma Thurman asked my brother for a light.

Kevin Costner and Oliver Stone at Cafe Brasil in NOLA back when they were making JFK. Costner cowered in the corner like a germaphobe with social anxiety disorder. Stone, obviously coked out of his mind, hit on and tried to dance with anything in a skirt that moved – but really just sweated on everyone in his radius.
Anthony Keidis (sp?) of RHCP on a flight to St. Thomas. Dude is a shrimp – maybe 5’5″/125 lbs. – danced up and down the aisle the entire flight. Was with some skinny chick who looked dope sick.
