Peyton Manning won an OIL Bowl in his first OIL season and a Super Bowl in his final season. Overall, he won six championships during his OIL career: three OIL Bowls; two Super Bowls; and one Thunder Bowl. His single-season and career point totals are OIL records. There was never any doubt that he would end up at Gruber.
PYLE: The greatest signal caller to ever play in our league. Year in and year out, his consistency was unmatched. His production and consistency led to multiple warranted first-round draft picks. He has won the most OIL Bowls and scored more career fantasy points than any other player in our league. I'm not sure we will ever see another QB, or fantasy player at any position, be as consistent and great over such an extensive span of time. Peyton won me my first championship in the OIL's first season in the desert. For that, I will always be thankful.
CLIBURN: I always felt conflicted about Peyton. As a general rule, I don't draft QBs early. That meant most every season I went into the draft knowing I wouldn't have PFM on my roster. But the year after his neck surgery presented me with the opportunity to get Peyton Fucking Manning in the sixth round. I took that risk and was rewarded by winning the 2012 OIL Bowl in a blowout. So I say thank you and congratulations to Peyton on his induction.
