sexual assault or a smear campaign?

what do you think?

gimmesometruth27 · February 2016

most likely a scumbag.

the mannings ruined that woman's career.

wow. never liked the guy anyways, but that's one helluva tale. did anyone else notice the author's reference to a PJ song?

Yeah always got a good old boy beats his wife kind of vibe from Peyton Manning. And I don't remember any of this coming out during the time when it happened.

This is the thing. There were scattered articles here and there about the settlement back in 2003. I don't believe any of them have anything close to the detail of yesterday's story.

There are going to be athletes that are great role model and can be great influences on people, but unfortunately stories like this come out all too often. The cover up isn't worse than the crime here but it is pretty damn deplorable if true (and sounds like it is) and did just as much damage to her life long-term.

He got to play for another 13 years without any scrutiny? That's unbelievable. He ruined her life and goes on to make millions in endorsements and commercials with other shady cats like Papa John. Glad this is coming out now at least before he rides off into the sunset.

Why were the court docs sealed? And why unseal them now? Peyton scamming Manning

It might be just me, but I think the cover up and aftermath is much worse than the crime. And honestly, I might not have things in perspective, but the offence is not near the magnitude of what I typically think of as a sexual assault: the offence sounded like a pressed ham or teabag. As disgusting as it was... it wasn't invasive.

Don't get me wrong- it was really weird, deserving of consequences, and as I said... gross, but not punishable by death. He should have been removed from the program and the reason for this should have been made public. I feel that the ruthlessness demonstrated afterwards that saw this woman ostracized was the real damning element to the dark side of PM. Instead of accepting the fact that he was a f**king idiot... he used his entitlement to destroy a professional.

Football players aren't heroes for their actions in sports.

agreed, but some people consider him a "hero", "idol", role model or wtf ever you want to call it.

RR, we are talking about Peyton here. not me

Dr.Teeth and the Electric Mayh · February 2016

To answer the thread title question, not sure if he's a scumbag, but he's definitely not a super bowl hero. That I am sure of.

another question for you then: Did the media cover this up/not pick up on the "story" until now because of his popularity?

Is the author of the story the male Rachel Dolezal?

having worked as an athletic trainer with a college football team, i can guarantee you that this would never have happened to a male. never.

The incident in question occurred 20 years ago, when Peyton Manning was at the University of Tennessee. The case was settled 13 years ago. And now it’s back, thanks to a New York Daily News story that suggests Manning’s entire goody-two-shoes persona is a contrivance based on lies and deceit, that 20 years ago, he engaged in a lewd act with the complainant, former Tennessee trainer Jamie Ann Naughright.

There are several issues here.

For one, the document that the writer, Shaun King, cites is a 74-page “Facts of Case’’ document that was written by Naughright’s lawyer in order to make the case against Manning. It is, by definition, a one-sided document; that’s why she’s paying a lawyer to make her case and make it stick. Maybe it’s true that Manning did more than simply moon a teammate in the locker room that day; maybe he did, in fact, stick his naughty bits in Naughright’s face, which would be a reprehensible act that goes far beyond playfulness. But you have to remember, this is her lawyer’s document.

We never saw the other side of the story, Manning’s side, which would be in a document written by his lawyer.

That was never revealed in this story, nor was there any noted attempt made to reach out to Manning or Manning’s representatives for comment.

I thought we got Manning's side of the story when he and his dad discussed in their book, Growing Up Entitled, or something like that.

After reading this article I'm left wondering if the author is jealous that Manning never tried tea-bagging him?
