What was Mike Vanderjagt thinking?

Page 2 staff

What the heck was Colts kicker Mike Vanderjagt thinking when he ripped teammate Peyton Manning and coach Tony Dungy for being losers during an interview with a Canadian TV station?

Mike Vanderjagt
"Woohoo! Let's hear it for liquid courage!"
A. "I'll put it to you this way: Peyton's interception-to-touchdown ratio is higher than Diana Ross' blood-alcohol level."

B. "Let me take a step back and think about what I said ... and then another step back ... and then two steps to the left."

C. "Hello? I was speaking in Canadian. Something just got lost in the translation."

D. "Let he who is without lots of padding cast the first stone."

E. "Vanderjagt is actually a Norwegian name. Loosely translated, it means 'deathwish.' "

F. "My dad, Jughead Vanderjagt, and Archie Manning had a terrible falling out, and I've never been able to let it go."
