Peyton Manning, PED user?

    I think you missed my point, which is that "those PEDs were shipped to my wife and her treatment using those PEDs has no connection to my treatment" is an awfully suspect defense. And, you kind of help make my argument when you point out that Ashley doesn't play professional football. What are the odds that she's the one taking HGH and not the NFL quarterback coming off of neck surgery?

    Oh, I don't disagree with you at all. Was just joking.

    He's an elite athlete. She's not.

    Which of them is more likely to be looking for treatment from this clinic?

    Gotcha. Sorry, I misread your intent. I thought you were saying it's acceptable for Ashley to receive shipments of PEDs because she doesn't play in the NFL. My bad.

    I don't think it's evidence of guilt either. But his denial reminded me of Armstrong's.

    This is the first thing I thought of as I was listening to Manning's interview with Lisa Salters.

    How can people still be this naive.

    Especially when we're talking about an older guy, trying to recover from an injury.

    It's the same reason why Andy Pettitte used. These guys want to get back on the field.

    And, really, I'm not sure why it shouldn't be allowed when recovering from an injury, if done under the supervision of a legit doctor.

    No, no, it's "How can people be this naive?"

    You have to do it in Nationwide pentameter.

    Hey, the person who framed Ryan Braun was never caught. Maybe he/she struck again.

    Peyton will sue Al Jazeera for Al Jazillions.

    Just remember the Constitution protects people from being judged by others.

    I hold out hope that we never find out Adrian Peterson's comeback was impure. That would be the end of the innocence.
