Like Armstrong And Bonds

January 4, 2016 Blind Gossip

lies pants on fire[Blind Gossip] This athlete is vehement that he did not do anything that could be construed as cheating. However, one of his former teammates claims that he knows differently.

Is it true? Yes. He really is no different from [Lance] Armstrong or [Barry] Bonds. Says one thing and does another to keep a clean image. It’s almost funny to watch him attack anyone who is accusing him. I’m not the only person on [the team] who knows that the accusations are true.

Will he sue? Nah. Too many people know too much. He can’t take the risk of any of us being hauled in for depositions. He’ll just pay people off to STFU.

Will the league discipline him? Don’t know but doubt it. They don’t want to deal with another scandal.

Current Team:

Former Teammate:

[Optional] Should the league investigate the accusation?

    Denver Broncos

    Wes Welker (Played the majority of his career in NE who’s a rival of NE and is Brady’s boy).

    I heard about the Al Jazeera documentary; now there’s an impartial outside investigator! Then I heard the accuser, bizarrely, take back everything he said. Now Ace is right on time with the explanation: a payoff for silence. I’m completely disgusted. From now on, I have no more time for Peyton Manning.

    Even if they do investigate it, the HGH testing/rules didn’t go into effect in the NFL til 2014, way after his injury/recovery, so technically it wasn’t illegal…

  4. exvaxman says

    January 4, 2016 at 7:35 pm

    Peyton. However, my understanding is that HGH was not on the NFL banned substance list when he was accused of taking it.

    Peyton, former Team Colts, present team Broncos, idk who former teammate is.
    Not surprised, & I’m a Denver resident & fan. I saw his ESPN interview & knew he was lying–when asked about the HGH he nodded as he denied the charges. Anytime someone nods when they’re denying something (unless they’re from a country like Greece where nodding can mean no), they’re lying.
    Yes the NFL should investigate, & if it was Tom Brady they would. And I say that despising Brady’s guts, but it’s true.

    Yes, it should be investigated, but is someone really shocked? He healed really fast. And, I don’t think he has an advantage (expect the quick recovery).

    The popular guess will be Peyton Manning but it doesn’t fit. He’s always been very good and the same size. He’s not like Bonds who all of a sudden became a hulk. You can usually tell when someone is juicing. They suddenly excel and get bulky.

    It is utterly hysterical how much Peyton Manning taking actual performance-enhancing drugs has been downplayed by the national media, when Tom Brady was dragged through the mud over “possible general awareness” of deflated footballs. Anyway…

    Athlete: Peyton Manning
    Team: Denver Broncos
    Former Teammate: I’ll say Wes Welker — former teammate & Brady’s friend.

    Should the league investigate: NO. Two wrongs don’t make a right! The league is corrupt and terrible enough as it is.

    Is this the Tom Brady/New England Patriots “deflate gate” story? Oh wait…THIS is the Payton Manning/Denver Broncos growth hormone story! Don’t know who the teammate is but I do think the league should investigate. Investigation was good enough for baseball. Why should football be any different? And I hope cheaters are FOREVER BANNED from their respective halls of fame. Pete Rose has a lifetime ban for doing a whole lot less than drugs.

    These guys cannot go 10 years playing 16+ games a year and NOT need “help”.
    Go watch North Dallas Forty. When first screened to professional football players, they said it wasn’t the best movie about professional football, it was the ONLY movie about professional football.

    For former teammate, I will say either Marvin Harrison, Reggie Wayne or Jeff Saturday.

    Peyton Manning, regarding the accusations in the Al Jazeera documentary. Of course it’s true. All of them are doping – if the top athletes (like Armstrong and Bonds) have been doing it for years, it means that nobody else could abstain from doping if they wanted to have a shot at competing with them. It’s not rocket science.

Just because the word “cheater” is used…you people who read headlines and don’t understand the agenda of the NFL, which is to turn attention to the real problem i.e. concussions and domestic violence immediately think Pats, and it’s all made up hogwash. This is the golden boy, the one and done 9 times in the playoffs…horse faced fraud that is Pey (PAY) Ton Manning.

      It’s Peyton. Tom Brady was accused and scrutinized but he didn’t attack his accuser(s) in any way. Peyton, on the other hand, went right after that Al Jazeed person and even though he recanted his claims, that doesn’t mean he wasn’t telling the truth. It only means 1)he does not have the money to fight back in court and prove his assertions, or 2) he doesn’t have evidence or proof to back up his claims, or both. The NFL will not go after Peyton. He’s the golden boy and his family is a…
