New York front page declares Peyton Manning vs. Tom Brady a ‘CLASH OF THE TAINT-ANS’

James Dator
James Dator has been covering a wide range of sports for SB Nation for over a decade, with a special focus on the NFL.

The New York Daily News is always good for a ridiculous headline and three times the daily recommended serving of sodium when it comes to sports -- especially when it comes to Tom Brady. Monday’s “Clash of the Taint-ans” might be the most ridiculous headline ... ever.

Whatever you do: Don’t think too much about Taint-ans clashing or what that mental image is.
