Somebody hacked Rob Lowe's twitter account and decided that the best they could do with it was spread a rumor than Manning might be retiring?

Lowe pictured with the Irsay family two years ago in Super Bowl week:

What kind of idiotic 'friend' would tweet something like that?

Why would he announce it right now? That makes no sense to me.

I'm leading toward hacker at the moment.

My post was intended to be a pun on a particlular college QBs last name, more than actual analysis.

If he's retiring, he's retiring. There's no harm in someone tweeting it.

Or the other way around. The Colts might have moved aggressively into a post-Manning era because they knew or projected that they were going there anyway.
