I can all but gaurantee Tom will use HGH to recover he just wont be dumb enough to get caught. He will buy it cash from a "source" its out there and its impossible to detect it will be used gauranteed
and yes I am just speculating but come on I hope he does and I hope every injured athlete tries it cause its harmless from all the reports when used properly.
Maybe one of us can drop it at his door
Just think about what all the haters would say if he got caught. To bad we can't spike his water with it.
Of course we do not yet know the injury but this looks like the perfect senario for the league to look into using HGH to treat an injury with doctor supervision. I bet many players would be in favor of this. Around the league they say that the NFL needs Tom Brady.
There are a lot of problems here, the biggest being
1) There are still performance enhancing benefits not related to healing the injury
2) Every NFL player always is hurt in one way or another so which injuries do you create an exemption for? Slippery slope.
While everybody wants Brady back, I just don't think this works.

Football is a social event as much as it is a sporting event. Too many eyes on what these players are doing. If it's known that players are taking HGH to improve their injuries etc., this will become normal for soiety.
Maybe the worry isn't for adults, but parents are already having this stuff proscribed for kids.
In Texas where parents have been known to hold kids back so they can be older and bigger than their peers for football, this stuff would be used and abused.
I vote NO, for the social principle of it. I don't want a beefed up society of HGH users. Kids are already taking attention-deficit inhibitors like candy just to do well on tests. When I was a kid, we tried recreational drugs. Kids today are into designer drugs that give them an edge.
I say NO.
I don't get this, from what I've heard the usual recovery time for a torn ACL is 8 months, that puts it around the beginning of May, then he'll have 4 months to get ready for the season. Why would he need to take HGH?Brady will ABSOLUTELY be using HGH during his rehabilitation, and the NFL will without a doubt sweep it under the rug. Same thing with any other big name player who I would bet my house used it for recovery. (Palmer, Mcnabb, T.O, maybe even Manning).
