The Denver Broncos quarterback is well-known for shouting “Omaha” at the line of scrimmage, so businesses based in the Nebraskan city promised to donate a combined $800 each time Manning said the word during Sunday’s game against the New England Patriots. The quarterback said “Omaha” 31 times, raising a total of $24,800 for Manning’s Peyback Foundation.

“This has been terrific for us,” David G. Brown, president and CEO of the Greater Omaha Chamber of Commerce, which headed up the effort, told ESPN. “Before Friday, we had calculated that news coverage of Omaha had generated the equivalent of about $10 million in advertising.”

Tell me HGL... Do you LIVE in Omaha?

I ask, because if you do, you are basically relentlessly mocking yourself. And I really cannot figure out why you would do that.

The difference between you and me I don't take this internet stuff seriously. You do. Not that there is anything wrong with that. It is pure cheap entertainment.
