Peyton Manning was inducted into the Pro Football Hall.of Fame over the weekend, and when his Hall of Fame bust was revealed, Twitter exploded, claiming it doesn't look like him. What do you think?

NFL Twiiter is claiming they got the forehead wrong and it should look like this:
Here's another Twitter post:
Charles Woodson's bust when it sees the Peyton Manning bust....
Another Twitter post says it reminds them of the Ronaldo bust.
Another post says Peyton's bust looks like the villain from Ghostbusters.
Oh wow, just wow, a few of the comments on Twitter were so nasty and vicious that Twitter had to delete them.
Another Twitter post, ouch.
It definitely doesn’t look like him but I’m sure it’s good enough for Manning though.
I remember there was an uproar about Ray Lewis's bust not looking like him back in 2018.

They really botched Deion Sanders bust.
dude, you just started a thread which has nine replies.....................and eight of them are yours. please change your handle to Littlewhicher. if you need an explanation I'll provide it.
littlewhicher? i do. no coffee yet.
They did a good job on his toupee.
.
littlewhicher was a youngster, maybe 15-16, who came to the Forums sometime around 2001-2003. within a matter of 2-3 months his post count was over 10,000. he had passed members who pre-dated the software and had been around for years, back in a time when it was thought that "post count" related to knowledge at the US Coin Forum. the trouble for littlewhicher was that he didn't know how many good forum detectives there were.
it was discovered that almost since he arrived this kid had been spending hours and hours logged in at the Testing Forum and some of the less visited, more obscure forums offered here by PCGS. he was replying to thousands of thread with a simple two-word post: "I concur." it was all pretty funny and the poor kid was roasted to death, PCGS somehow removed those replies, modified his post count and littlewhicher faded into PCGS folklore.
They did a great job with Michael Strahan, they got it perfect, right down to the gap!
I want to someday surpass one million posts, then I can rest. Until then, there's work to be done!

@doubledragon You need to visit @ricko in the coin forum to see some of your competition.
Don’t listen to any nonsense, you bring everything the sports talk forum needs to the table. It was a ghost town before you recharged it. Your the man Double D, keep doing g what your doing g buddy 🍻👍👍

I can't stop posting, I know littlerichard is out there rooting for me, I must do this for littlerichard!
i concu….oh nevermind. that joke has run its course. do you concur? 😉
Yes, I do concur!
fun fact: the real frank abignale actually lives about a 5 iron away from us.
Oh god, I'm never riding a bicycle again!
They did a great job with Michael Strahan, they got it perfect, right down to the gap!
the twist on that is that he got the gap fixed, so anyone looking at that statue and not having see him will think it's botched. give it 10-20 years.
Does not look like him
you'll never be able to outrun a bad diet
And I hope to make littlerichard proud someday!
You will........Tutti Frutti!
Bop Bopa -A- Lu- Ah- Whop- Bam- Boo!
Yes, this reminds me of the time 20th Century Fox had to make a Dirty Harry cop movie using Little Richard because Clint Eastwood wasn't available at the time.
I totally agree with Perkdog. Love your threads/posts DD! I look forward to these every day!
Thanks guys, I look forward to your posts every day as well. 🖒🍻

I believe that was just an April fools prank, if I remember correctly.

Very interesting! Any personal anecdotes or observations? He has a fascinating story.
i found out in a very funny way. we live in a fairly new developed island right outside charleston, sc. its called daniel island. its kinda its own lil ecosystem. you can pretty much do everything in a golf cart. kids to school, grocery shop, go out to eat, see concerts, hair cuts, post office, etc.
i brought up hair cut because thats how i found out. we have an old school barbershop here. vintage chairs, can still go to get a fresh shave and so forth. not even a computer register. old school register and a ledger for names & appointments. so im in there wrapping my haircut and frank walks in and says he’s here for his appointment. they ask for his name and he says “frank. frank abignale”. now, catch me if you can has always been a top 20 movie for me and my guy friends. so i immediately think the dude is just having fun obviously. so i yell out while im getting the hair blown off w a hair dryer “WHERE YA GOING TONIGHT, FRANK? SOMEWHERE EXOTIC?”. and he chuckles, but i didnt get the “wink” or “haha” that i thought i would get knowing that i was picking up what he was putting down. so, i get finished and go up and pay. i was a walk-in so they ask what my name was so they can mark me in the ledger and i say “bob ev@ns”. well frank smiles and says “down on the farm”, “thats my favorite restaurant”. well if i had a nickel for every time ive heard those lines, id own the whole dayum island. ive even had enough time hearing it that ive come up w my own little catch me if you can story about how “yes, im not the original bob, but from & of the family. the company is split up into two different divisions, yada, yada, yada.”. so frank does the obvious and asks bites the bait hard “any relation?”. and of course i lay it on thick. so much so that he even asks to see my license. which i always love it when folks do that because its hook, line & sinker then. and after about 5 mins of banter, i say “im just kidding frank. i wanted to see if i really could bullsh!t a bullsh!tter”. my name really is that but no, no relation what so ever. man, he got the biggest chuckle ever obviously. of course, ive literally had 43 years to practice and craft my story.
but yes, he splits his time between here and new york. but weve been out a few times and seen each other at the bars or restaurants and we always say hi to each other. its pretty cool when youre sitting w/ friends and frank abignale makes a point to come over and say “hi”. all because and needless to say, its easy for us to remember each others names! 😉
@blurryface When I asked if you had something anecdotal, I never dreamed it would be such a tremendous tale.
he’s super nice. and from the brief talks in passing, a lot from the movie is true. but a lot isnt. he was never really close w his dad after the divorce. handwratty wasnt the real fbi agents name. they did stay close, but as he was still alive and an fbi agent, they couldnt use his real name. real name is something shea. just remember bc he said like “shea stadium”.
but blackbaud is a huge software company and based here on daniel island as well. so frank is a pretty big security consultant for them which is what brought him here. and it all started by bouncing checks!
No he didn't. It was an April Fool's joke.
