Peyton Manning -- My Goatee Is Back!!!!

EVIL PEYTON MANNING IS BACK!!!!!

For the first time since 2008, Peyton Manning is rockin' the goatee ... in what appears to be an attempt to find a new identity after that humiliating Super Bowl loss to the Seattle Seahawks.

Evil Peyton and his facial hair surfaced at what appears to be a charity event over the weekend ... where he gave a speech, rocked a tux and even posed for pics with fans.

Somewhere, Evil Spock is laughing maniacally.
