We recently reported about Denver Post columnist and ESPN personality Woody Paige’s claim that Broncos QB Peyton Manning would retire by the end of the week.
This assertion was quickly denied by the Broncos, and the Post reportedly tweaked Paige’s original item, only to later return it to its previous condition.

Here’s one example.
