Talk about pandering to the fanbase. He must feel like they're turning against him.

This is harmless. Just to make his friend feel at home. They have great respect for each other...

LOL. I'm both a Titans and Vols fan and it's not sitting well with me. Especially considering we just lost to NE 59-0. Imagine Kiffin busting out an old Wuerffel jersey at a charity event... I can't even picture it. Kiffin is way to hardcore for that.

Manning plays in the same division, on a team that beats Fisher's Titans out for the division championship every year. Would Andy Reid wear an Eli Manning jersey onstage in Philadelphia to make a guest feel welcome?

It's harmless pandering, but it's pandering. I'd be annoyed if I were a Titans player.

Honestly, I can't find anything at all wrong with it. He respects Dungy, he respects Manning. Apparently I'm missing something.

Kiffin wears a Tebow jersey to an Urban Meyer charity event.

Get it now?

A paid employee of one organization should never wear a competitors jersey. Its disrespectful to the people who are putting food on your table and the players you are there to lead. .

Why is everybody acting like Jeff Fisher just wore a FL jersey? Im pretty sure Peyton Manning didnt go to Bammer or FL. He is loved by everyone in TN, and if you still had hope for the Titans this year it should be that they get a top draft choice and pick another TN legend in Berry or a decent QB.

amazing how Fisher wanted nothing to do with UT when the Oilers first arrived in TN. I guess 0-6 makes people do strange things...

Is this really that hard to understand? The Titans and Colts are division rivals. Fisher wearing a Manning jersey is the same as Kiffin wearing a Tebow jersey. It's disrespectful to his boss, players, and fans. If he wants to feel like a winner, maybe he shouldn't put such a pathetic excuse for a football team on the field.
