That's right.  But Arian Foster at 22? That seems a bit outrageous...... |

I think Manning at #1 is a little outrageous. He doesn't hold the endorsement power (at least in this region, but it's Tom's country up here), and he definitely did not perform at the level we are used to seeing him perform at. With Brady's performance last year, most NFL analyst were saying that Brady had surpassed Manning as the best player in the league... That being said, I don't think Brady should be #1 either.
I'm really surprised that Jeter and ARod are as low as they are. Maybe the January release date of the list played into that a little bit.

It used to be that he was in every other commercial you'd see on TV. It has gotten a little better, but he still pops up all the time in commercials. I can't think of an athlete I've seen in more ads in my lifetime except for Tiger. |

Admittedly, I really don't watch TV anymore, but I can honestly say I haven't seen a Peyton commercial in at least the last 18 months. Like I said, maybe it has to do with living in Brady's backyard. |

Do you see many Brady commercials? I haven't recalled seeing one with Brady though I do recall seeing plenty of Brady print ads (though I can't remember one specific one). Here you can see a bunch of Peyton's commercials: www.youtube.com/results?search_query=Peyton+Manning+Commercial&aq=fThis is the one I see the most on TV now, particularly when watching sports. |

Manning is all over the place with endorsements. I agree about Foster too. No way he should be that high.

I love the commercial where Manning is playing football with all the kids and he throws a laser at a kid and gets mad when he doesn't catch it....that's probably my favorite commercial of any NFL player.
