The NFL is conducting an investigation of Peyton Manning, HGH delivery (1 Viewer)

This thread's title clearly indicates that it's a thread justifying the Patriot's scandals. So, if Denver wins what's the over/under on the number of Patriots fan's posts in the first hour after the game that implicate the win as tainted? I'm just trying to stay on topic.

Hopefully a bunch. They can all join in the * bandwagon.

 
As much as I don't really like Manning he's one guy i can forgive for taking HGH, given his spinal injury - assuming that's when he started taking it.

ETA: He should come clean though (if he did it - which is looking increasingly likely).
Of course Peyton Manning took HGH. He's a high-profile athlete. They never beat these raps. He did it. Dude had an insta-retirement neck injury. A never-get-strength-back-in-the-arm never-never-ever injury ... and he comes back to still be a top-level QB? Come on.

News flash: Adrian Peterson took a boatload of PEDs to come back from his insta-retire knee injury a few years back, too. They're high-profile athletes -- they do PEDs to beat stuff that caused retirements 20 years ago. All of them, every time.
exactly. And Jamal Charles, Jordy Nelson, and Arian Foster are injecting hgh like it's going out of style. It's just the way it is.
 
Wow. Cowher just asked manning about the HGH allegations and manning couldn't even keep eye contact. His eyes were shooting left and right while he spat out a clearly memorized statement. Couldn't have looked more guilty. I didn't believe it was true but anyone who saw that interview knows he was lying.

If JohnnyU agrees with me you know it's true. Guy must be guilty.

Didn't see this interview but that sounds like what people were saying about the Brady interview last year when asked about the ball stuff.

 
Manning sends thugs to intimidate the dudes family and we are supposed to be surprised he recanted?
Or his crisis management team sent private investigators to try and figure out what was going on and the family didn't want to talk so they claimed the private investigators were intimidating them.

I missed the interview but would be curious to see a link to it, if you have it.

I hope Jordy is bathing in the stuff, getting rubbed down with the clean and clear, and then is being wrapped in deer antler velvet.

Thank you. I had seen others sort of like that interview, but had not seen that one.

Seems like you're just reading into it whatever you want.

I watched it thrice. I didn't see eyes shooting left and right. He looked down when first asked, but that's a normal thing to do in an uncomfortable situation. It did seem like Cowher and Manning had talked about the question before the interview. I don't think it was a surprise at all. Even so, of course Manning had planned how to respond to that question. Nothing to see here. Move along.

So he didn't repeatedly break eye contact to look up and to the left, then directly left of Cowher?

You might want to watch it again. Specifically :32-:34, :39, :42, :44, :49, :54, :59, 1:01, and 1:04-:06

He also shifted his eyes when talking about how much faster Cam is. Obviously, Peyton is lying and thinks he is faster than Newton.

...and at 1:12 and 1:19-:23 and 1:31 and 1:37.

Obviously lying about how fast he is compared to Cam.

Do you generally stare into people's eyes while talking to them?
 
Well at least Peyton can use his forehead as a Bud/Papa John's billboard to make another buck. I was almost happy for the guy before he started pimping all this crap the second the game was over. Pathetic.

 
after seeing that interview i am more convinced then ever that tom brady knew the balls were being deflated and was behind spying on other teams i do not eventhink anyone needs to wonder now take that to the bank brohans

 
Alleged 7 month investigation with no leaks or experts giving their opinions as proof. Still came to the conclusion that there was no credible evidence connecting Peyton to the HGH delivered to his door.

More probable than not this investigation literally never happened.

 
Not saying that Peyton used, but how did the reach that conclusion so quickly, yet still want to speak to Harrison, Matthews, and Peppers?

 
well that seals it tom brady was in fact in on the deflation affair and spydergate how can you refute it now manning lovers you cant thats damned straight take that to the bank bromigos

Ah read that Manning isn't part of the NFLPA since he retired so he could meet with the NFL whenever and not worry about the NFLPA.

 
Perhaps there was absolutely no evidence in the first place, and they realized that?
Al Jazeera had documented evidence that HGH was delivered to Manning's house. Are you suggesting that Al Jazeera fabricated this evidence?

The MLB has also already suspended players they found guilty that were named in the same Al Jazeera story.

What's more believable? The NFL found nothing and declared the whole thing done or they're covering up for a player that is no longer in the league and risk a greater backlash if there is indeed evidence.

 
Brady mongers reaching and want so desperately for Manning's name to be tarnished just like their guy Brady's is.

 
Given the track record, I don't know how anyone could find anything the league does to be credible. Al Jazeera is as credible as the other big news agencies the people who pretend like they are some rag is hilarious - they are up there with the times/post/globe.

Have they released the documented evidence they have?

I think it is more in line with a situation where one guy has been chased with pitchforks and burning torches for two years over something that nobody finds to be meaningful to the game and the other somehow got an entire and thorough investigation vetted AND decided on in 7 months without a hundred side stories ever coming up in the media.  And, for good measure, the issue at hand with Manning is FAR more pressing in terms of truly detrimental to the league, the player, and the reputation of the shield. 

I call BS.  Nothing pro-Brady or anti-Manning.  Like them both. Glad to be a part of watching the game and seeing these two careers but I find it almost impossible that the lesser story was under a white hot light for 2 years and the more important story slipped out of the harbor under the cloak of the night.

They wrote a followup that included the additional information gathered including an anonymous source who worked at the clinic that confirmed they shipped hgh to Peyton house, for the second time.

So to answer those two questions, yes and no to both.

Al Jazeera America is credible?  The company that folded in April???

Also the baseball players are suing Al Jazeera America and the reporter because of their report calling the allegatiins categorically untrue.

I wish those who were and weren't suspended for using PEDs good luck in their litigation. Al Jazeera America is gone but Al Jazeera International won't be going anywhere.

I get that you really want this report to be true....but it is possible that the source, who came out and said the report was incorrect, wasn't as reliable a source as they thought...and now they are being sued by Ryan Howard and Ryan Zimmerman because of it...

As if a Pats fan would post anything besides this.  How long have you been holding that one?

 
If you're talking about the guy who was filmed secretly espousing about the organized PED distribution network that he used and then later recanted because that was his only option, that's fine. I'm talking about the two times Al Jazeera got in contact with different people at the Institute who separately confirmed that HGH was sent to the Manning residence.

I don't really care one way or another about this story, or whether an old man used hgh to recover more quickly from a devestating and debilitating injury and surgery.

What I do care about is the apparent bias the league has when investigating teams and individuals. Incognito, the Saints, the Pats, the Falcons, Ray Rice, Peterson, Brady, Peypey. They went after the Saints and Pats, they slapped the Falcons on the wrist for actual cheating, they went after Rice, Incognito and Brady. They crucified Incognito and tried to do the same to Brady and the Pats. They spent millions of dollars and thousands of hours, leaked tons of false information. But if you're telling me the investigation into this took 3 months longer than the entire deflategate investigation and they found nothing, then I'm telling you that one or both of those things are bull####.
