It was announced on Monday night that ESPN won a company record 13 Sports Emmy Awards including Peyton Manning winning a Sports Emmy for ‘Outstanding Personality/Event Analyst.’
The win came for his work on ESPN’s ManningCast with his brother Eli Manning, the alternate NFL broadcast that brings in some of the most famous guests on TV.
Eli and Peyton Manning won their first Sports Emmys (together) last year for MNF with Peyton & Eli. This time around, Peyton won his award while Eli was left standing in the rain.
After Peyton’s Sports Emmy was announced, Eli was quick to roast him on Twitter:
I did not know you could win an Emmy for just telling fans when coaches should call timeout. https://t.co/cb6rSiXHqj

Harkening back to Eli throwing up Double Birds on the ManningCast, someone joked this is how Eli felt after seeing Peyton Manning win an Emmy without him:

If the ManningCast is on it’s my preferred broadcast and it’s not even close. The full list of ESPN’s Sports Emmy wins includes:
1. Personality/Event Analyst – Peyton Manning
2. Digital Innovation – McEnroe vs. McEnroe
3. Long Feature – Betsy & Irv
4. Short Feature – College GameDay: Jump Around
5. Personality/Reporter – Lisa Salters
6. Edited Event Coverage – Welcome to the NHL: 2022 NHL Draft
7. Editing (Short Form) – Outside The Lines – Without You
8. Journalism – E60 Remember the Blue and Yellow
9. Personality/Studio Analyst – Ryan Clark
10. Personality/Play-by-Play – Mike Breen
11. The Dick Schaap Writing Award (Short Form) – Outside The Lines – Without You
12. Live Series – Monday Night Football
13. Studio Show – Daily – SportsCenter
I’m sure Eli Manning is sending out congratulations to all of the other winners but not before he tries to get Bryant Gumbel on their show…
Anybody ever heard of this Bryant Gumbel guy? Chad Powers wants to have a little talk with him about stealing his Sports Emmy!
