WEEI reported several of them have already. I was driving so I don't have the names.
Did ESPN give Peyton Manning 30 minutes or did Peyton Manning give ESPN 30 minutes?
Whether the pope said it or Johnny from Burger King said it it's a great comment that hits the nail on the head.
I feel like "Sly" is just protecting his reputation in the business and community. He'd get tarred and feathered out of Texas if he was the person responsible for ruining a football superhero's legacy. There's no way he doesn't see this and is acting accordingly.
This is the beginning of ACT 1 of a multi act drama. Manning launches a smear offensive on anyone near the story. The real fun begins when Al Jazeera drops some proof Manning can't refute. Al Jazeera, as I understand it, has journalistic integrity. I've found some of their reporting over the years to be more BBC than CNN. I doubt they relied on one source for this.
I think Manning deserves the benefit of the doubt, much as anyone would.
I agree with pretty much everything here. This will be interesting to observe as it unfolds.
It was commentary from another fan. There's no news in what I posted. At all. It's 100% just an opinion piece, which is why I shared it, because I feel like people here may be able to relate to it. If it were from someone prominent in the media I would have included that.
How exactly? I think the opposite. The reason Peyton is coming out so strongly against this could be because he knows it's in the past and virtually impossible to prove, outside of surreptitiously recorded statements from a shady doctor.
We don't post FB feeds, rumor's from friends, non-attributed innuendo and other crap because it tickles our feelings or 'hits the nail" or any other BS like this. If you want to post about this BS and how one relates, ESPN boards or any other shit forum are the place. This is not the site for that.
He didn't present like it was on the NY Times. It was just an opinion blurb, and it didn't need attribution. I'm not understanding your issue. People say stuff like that all the time, all over this forum and this board.
Not gonna believe Manning anymore than I would Al Jazeera at this point. It will be impossible to sweep this under the rug now. If there are FACTS to this accusation they will come out. AJ is a well respected news organization; far more credible than say ESPN or Fox News for example. I doubt they stick their name out there without some cross reference.
And yet their source for this (Sly) was an unpaid college intern at this clinic for 3 months in 2013. He claimed he was involved with supplying HGH. To Manning in 2011 in the undercover report.
None of what you wrote is true. It's like the propoganda has already worked on you. The reporter does NOT have a history of fraud. Sly worked in the pharmacy there in 2011 and the reporter says they have confirmation of this. WATCH THE DOCUMENTARY.
Did you watch the report? In the introduction they outline the fraud charges, it wasn't an unknown to them, it was actually a credibility inroad to the 'dark side' they sought to expose. The report did say they confirmed Sly was an internist at Guyer in 2011--doctor of pharmacology, not a hey you go get coffee intern--I don't know when or if that assertion was bunked or the timing of Sly's employment. Al Jazeera wasn't looking to burn Manning here, they were setting out to expose the system of doping and using an already dirty UK hurdler was the way in; it was loose lipped name dropping pharmacists that gave them more than expected.
I believe Spike is referring to he runner, Collins, who does have a history of fraud. Whether he counts as the reporter on this piece or just the agent of the reporter (who I think would be the narrator of the video), I wouldn't know.
Yes. I am talking about Collins with the fraud conviction. The Huffpo article points this out and links to his legal troubles. Whether or not that tarnishes his veracity in this thing is up to individual opinion.
Based on what others have described from the documentary, his veracity is irrelevant to the veracity of allegations/admissions regarding other players.
