For the sake of all humanity, or at least the .0000000000000000000001% here on Fan Nation, medical scientists need to stop wasting their time and give us what we really want.
That's right. The technology is there. I'm talking using a new thing called a "laser" to cut Peyton Manning and Tom Brady completely in half, and rebuild 2 new QB's, each known as Peyton Brady.
The two Peyton Bradys (admit it, it has a ring), would take the NFL by storm. each posting perfect QB ratings while throwing for 16,000 yards and 160 TD's a season.
There would be no never-ending debate as to who was better. The Hall of Fame in Canton would be torn down, and instead be replaced by a massive 1,200 foot statue of Peyton Brady rivaling the Colossus of Rhodes. The statue would join the Great Wall of China as the only man-made structures visible from the space shuttle.
Think of the glory, think of the drool and spittle John Madden would gush, think of the peace and quiet here at FN.
Physicians, heal thyself, save humanity, give us the Peyton Brady twins.
Disagree? Throwdown!

Tom Manning.
If you were to split the two in half, one would be Peyton Brady and the other would be Tom Manning.
While Peyton Brady is rapidly working his way through Maxim's top 100 and appearing on SNL, Tom Manning will be studying his playbook, breaking down defenses all the while lifting weights with his free appendges.
Clearly Tom Manning would have the advantage on the field. Name means so much to the persona of an individual. All great QB's have been grounded with an "Everyman Name".
If not the first name ...
Joe
Dan
John
Jim
Then the salt of the earth bland last name ...
Manning
Bradshaw
Graham
Let's look at some of the all time busts ...
Ryan Lief
Joey Harrington, an adult who prefers Joey?!
Kordell Stewart
David Carr, if he went by Dave I am convinced he would be in the HOF.
Peyton Brady would be too much concerned with his hair and not the task at hand.
Plus, if you really wanted something special - replace Michael Vicks head with Joe Montana's - Joe Vick and his retarded twin Michael Montana. One would be the most dominant athlete ever, the other would have a world record for licking gum under McDonald's tables.

No, no, no Mr. Swayze(and thank you for Road House). Your suggestion would quite simply foil the grand plan, as we would then be faced with an onslaught of:
"Tom Manning is Better Than Peyton Brady". This can only lead to the rending of flesh and the lamentation of the women.
What I am proposing is equinamity. I also have two further elements in my master plan which I shall conveniently reveal in each of my two remaining arguments. See, just mentioning the possibility brings out a Feng Shui-ey balance to everything.
PHASE 2:
Since we are already splitting them open like coconuts, the brain surgeons then take over. Again using "lasers" they can isolate and destroy the newly named "smarmy lobe" in Brady's brain. In a similar fashion Manning's "big dumb doofus region" would also be destroyed.
Slap 'em together and what do you have? Only world peace my friends. Think of it. The universally beloved Peyton Brady's would tour the world, passing out free tacos and hot dogs to the hungry, and curing leprosy with a mere touch. Enemies would lay down their weapons and bathe in the light that shone from their perfect heads.
Not to mention the TV ratings.

ThERE CAN BE ONLY ONE.
The greatness of these athletes is measured in their determination to be the greatest. Brady has his titles and his fame, Manning has his records and his validation. Only one thing keeps them from simply walking away fulfilled and successful, The Determination to be the Best.
If they were to be mixed their blood would clash like liquid hot magma and the ocean.
Their DNA would refuse to concede to one another.
Their souls would burn in firery torment that would shake both Heaven and Hell such that the shear mater of the Universe would collapse into a white nothingness of unconsciousness.
Even if you could infuse them, the other would have to be put to death, and under your own theory - How could this be allowed to be done?
It is a bad idea.
THERE CAN BE ONLY ONE.
THERE CAN BE ONLY ONE.
there can be only one.

Ah, but you are wrong. You are forgetting the secret ingredient...the infamous Manning Awesome Point mojo. By innoculating the Peton Brady twins with Manning Awesome Point, all feuding and beligerence would recede. All that would remain was a sweet competitive urge as pure as Roy Hobb's heart. Even Frank Pentangelli would remove his tinfoil hat and weep with joy.
The Final Shoe Drops
I know what some have thought. What of us great unwashed masses? The tired, the poor - the Arizona Cardinal fans? Can you smell what T-fo is cooking? Genetics. THIRTY-TWO identical Brady Mannings. One for all of us!!! Each regular season game would end in a tie! Sudden death playoff games would go on until infinity (and all teams qualify with identical records!), as somehow each team's Peyton Brady would find a way to score simultaneously!
NFL Commissioner Goodell would decide to award each franchise a dodeca-shmillion Lombardi trophies. WE ALL WIN! No more stupid TD's about which team is gonna win it all - 3 months before the season starts. Every team is the best!
Kumbaya, Kumba-freaking-ya.
And it's all true. That's science.
Swayze Bandwagon Fan *BBF said 07/10, 01:21 PM
You are right, but why stop at 32 clones? Let's go all the way and give everyone their own personal fruity Peyton Brady?
We can each enjoy our own identical piece of happiness. All of our food will taste the same. Snozzberries taste like Snozzberries.
We will all wear the same clothes, have the same priveledges, the same thoughts and opinions.
Passion and Anger will be replaced with complacency.
Where exactly did you come back from T-fo? 1946 Russia?
I get where you are coming from - Brady vs. Manning TD's are redundant and mind numbing. However, the argument remains both valid and current. Neither has placed themself above the other and continue to be a high level factor in America's most dominant sport.
If a member of FanNation decides to "answer" this question in Blog or Throwdown form they should be subject to ridicule and mocking, but it is a reflection of where they currently are in the own progression through the Sports World.
Admit it, you were there once. You continue to question which should be "ranked higher" or you else you have moved on.
Some of our fellow members unfortunately choose to express it to our horror, but it should still be OK
