Brothers have been competing against each other in professsional sports since the beginning of time.

I think it's just a nice way of saying, that I don't want to play for that laughing stock of an organization.

Probably right. I thought Peyton had a pair and competing against his brother would be way low on his list of priorities.

I'm sure he would probably like playing against Eli twice a year.
But when you think about I could think of two reasons off the top of my head why what he's saying is likely true.

1- He probably doesn't want to answer the endless amount of questions about him matching up against Eli twice a year for the next 3-4 years.

2- (makes more sense to me) Apparently they are very very close, to the point where they speak to each other and disuss strategy/schemes regarding the opposition for each other every week. Obviously if they are in the same division, that simply couldn't happen.

Bigs, I honestly don't think it's a competition thing, it's more of an intangible type deal.
