HGHGate continues:Pedton's Lawyers hired men to pretend to be cops to question Sly

I think the situation with Manziel is a little weird simply because I think his girlfriend has made false claims of abuse before. I could be wrong but that's how I understand it. So I don't think anyone took too seriously her claim this time right off the bat. Girl who cried wolf in a way. However, now the cops are investigating, his agent quit on him and his parents are freaking out, so I think it'll probably get serious.

Manning retires and this goes away.

One thing that might slow this story's exposure down is the timing of it. It's during a presidential election season which has taken up a lot of air time in the news lately.

I'm not sure if this is going away. It may be slow developing but it seems to have some juice left on the bone.

Yea. It's getting about as much attention as Hillary's email server.

Why Bernie isn't destroying her on this is so annoying

Is that a saying? I have never heard that one before. Or is this a play on words (HGH = juice)??? Just curious, not trying be nit picky or anything.

Not sure but I have been known to mix analogies/idioms or screw them up in the past.

This morning The Today Show had about a 2 minute piece on the SB and y actually devoted some of it to the Manning HGH story with his picture, etc. I almost fell off of my recliner.

I suspect he thinks that it's a divisive topic between his and her supporters. Leaving it alone may allow him to steal her supporters or keep the VP option open. Not sure.

Surely you heard Goodell's warning of the risks of sitting on couches, I would think you'd realize the much higher risk associated with a moving recliner.

Which is bull. She should be in Leavenworth right now. Wanna know where I would be had I done what she did albeit on an lower level? That's right. Leavenworth.

Someone needs to find the guys that pretended to be police and prosecute them. If not, and least have their arses kicked in

If George Washington was president she would be tried, found guilty and hanged for high treason.

It's against the law to impersonate a police officer. The police don't have a choice of whether to prosecute them or not.

Three main reasons, I think.

1. He's not a lifelong Democrat, yet now he's running for what among other things is the role of party leader. Not tearing his opponent down probably saves him from getting grief about that. Indeed, I've barely heard it mentioned.

2. He knows he might lose the nominating contest. In that case, he doesn't want to have torn down the winner.

3. Every political candidate or other marketer has an implicit BS "budget". BS up to a certain level, and you're OK; people either forgive you for engaging in usual and customary amounts of puffery, or else they actually believe you and don't know that it's BS. Sanders is campaigning heavily on an image of honesty/authenticity, so his BS budget is smaller than many candidates'.

Sanders is spending his BS budget almost entirely in several major areas:

• Pretending his numbers add up.
• Pretending certain proposals have a chance of passing.
• Pretending he has more than a nodding acquaintance with issues of national security.

I salute him for all those choices. They're strategically shrewd, and by political standards pretty ethical. But given all that, he doesn't have enough BS "budget" left over to wallow in the e-mail nonsense.

I think the story is all wrong. They were just Papa John's pizza delivery men giving Sly a special pizza courtesy of Peyton and his attorney.

Let me see if I have this right, two guys, at night, show up at Sly and the Family HGH home, wearing black and impersonating law enforcement officers, and the son recants the following day? How is this not a story? How many of you thought of this when you heard the story....

How about contributing to the discussion rather than throwing dislikes on a) things you have no idea about or b) facts that you seem to want to dispute?
