THIBODAUX, La. — Where's Archie Manning?
As 1,200 kids checked into the Manning Passing Academy on Thursday, kicking off the camp's 20th year, one of the parents searched for the elusive patriarch of football's first family.
Archie, who suffered a generation ago as quarterback of the then-woeful New Orleans Saints, produced two sons — Peyton and Eli — who have combined for three Super Bowl MVP awards.
Now maybe Archie will rub some of his post-career Manning magic on the campers.
Or maybe not.
When the camp started at Tulane University in 1996, Archie was a hands-on coach.
