Also how do we know that Mannings wife didn't need HGH for a medical condition??? Plus HGH wast banned in the NFL till july of 2011.

The guy was a intern at the time and he back tracked when unauthorized video of him was released saying he illegally was selling drugs to people . He only denied it because manning got lawyers to call him . Nobody said manning was guilty of anything he just took some Peds I guess it's a glass full or empty things . I don't know about his wife but there are not a lot of reasons that HGH is giving to people . I think it's HIV , growth issues , and recovery .

of course he's a hof'er, whether it's proven he used hgh or not. he's a well liked public figure who's crafted a clean cut, media-friendly persona the last 20 years. he'll get a pass (he already has, imagine if brady or belichik was involved in something like this right now).

Yes, Manning will make the HOF on his first attempt. This is what sports journalism has sunk to and people can see right through it.

The guy also named Derek Jeter and a bunch of other athletes who have never been implicated in HGH, Steroids or anything else malicious.

Anything that comes out of anybody's mouth is now "news". Doesn't matter if it's been vetted, or fact checked, or corroborated.

This is a joke of a story.

...........and yes Patriots fans.....Tom Brady will make the HOF in his first attempt to.

So if there is 100% proof of him doing it you think Manning should still be a HOFer ? Not that I think your wrong but what kind of precedent does that set for the youth ? And other athletes in other sports ? Your so spot on about if it was the patriots . It would be a shit storm and ESPN would talk about it 24/7 . The fact that ESPN has done practically nothing with this story says it all . If it is found to be 100% true or not they want him to remain Golden

Dustin,

Do you watch the news regularly or just subscribe to Al Jazeera's BS? The guy who accused Manning of wrongdoing came out the night of the report and said he made up the entire story! Come back from Mars and tune into the internet!

100% Hall of Famer. No questions asked.

Peace, Mike

Do live in reality or a fake world with nothing but do gooders ?
He had to retract it ! He didn't want any part of this . He does not want his dark secrets coming out , he doesn't want to get sued , he has no choice but to say oops nah I didn't illegally sell drugs to a multimillionaire. Come on man smh .

Too late.... He's getting sued.

My only qualm with you believing him is this: you state that the guy was a crook and was illegally selling drugs and due to those and other skeletons coming out, he decided to retract his statement. Even if the latter half of that is true, are we now taking the word of the crooked drug dealer over a bunch of guys who (unlike PED users of the 90s) are well aware of the media repercussions of getting caught?

Your argument is completely relying on taking the word of a crooked drug dealer with skeletons in his closest (your paraphrased words). Seems to have little merit.

I thought I did as well. But to answer the OP's question, yes Peyton is a first ballot HOFer. I think even if he admitted he used something while recovering from the neck injury he still gets in. But I could be wrong about that.
