Wed, 28 Mar 2007 19:37:15 -0700
The Associated Press reports <A href="http://www.kffl.com/team/11/nfl">Chicago Bears' fan Scott Wiese is not allowed to legally change his name to Peyton Manning (http://www.kffl.com/player/856/nfl), after the Indianapolis Colts (http://www.kffl.com/team/19/nfl) quarterback. Macon County Judge Katherine McCarthy ruled Wiese changing his name to Peyton Manning (http://www.kffl.com/player/856/nfl) would be too confusing and might infringe on the privacy of the quarterback. Weise was only trying to change his name to honor a bet he lost when Colts (http://www.kffl.com/team/19/nfl) beat the Bears (http://www.kffl.com/team/11/nfl) in the Super Bowl. "I had told the judge that I was not doing this because I wanted to change my name, but I was doing it because I was honoring a bet. I think she understood that," Wiese told the Decatur Herald & Review.
Boooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo welching on his bet. Leave it to a chick not to understand a football bet :refuse:
