-- Peyton Manning's Indianapolis Colts will play Tom
Brady's New England Patriots this Sunday in the AFC
Championship Game. However, a new survey suggests that
high-def female viewers will be keeping a closer eye on
Mr. Manning.
Despite Brady's reputation as an American sex symbol (he recently broke up with model/actress Bridget Moynahan), Manning was chosen as the quarterback American women would "most like to see up close in HDTV" in a survey conducted by Sony.
The females were given a choice of Manning, Brady, Atlanta's Michael Vick, Green Bay's Brett Favre and Tennessee's Vince Young. Manning won with 21 percent of the vote; Favre was second with 20 percent; Brady received 11 percent.
