"Peyton Manning’s squeaky-clean image was built on lies" - Shaun King

Here we go

Before she left, though, two staff members of the school, according to the documents, asked Naughright if she would consider blaming the entire incident not on Manning, but on another athlete — a black one. According to Naughright, the staff members (named as Mr. Wyant and Mr. Rollo), went so far as to actually name a specific black athlete she could blame it on. Of course, she refused (see pages 18-19).

Is it really that serious?

Nope. The media has this sick obsession with invading the personal lives of athletes an putting it on front stream for hits and views. Why in the fukk should I give a fukk about any athlete's personal life outside of the sport they play unless it's them committing serious crimes or shyt that is detrimental to society. I hate these gossipping ass reports...

My issue with this is the information has always been around....but cuz Peyton won, they wanna dig this shyt up.

What's funny that after he left Tennessee they win a title with tee martin

The reason I asked that is because this story is almost never brought up aside from deflecting from what somebody else did.

Which to me suggests that folks don't really care about this chick like that and are just mad that they're guy is getting criticized. Outrage just seems a bit disingenuous to me.

Thats gonna change after this article. I think most people thought she was just a random locker room girl. This article did a great job of "humanizing" the victim.

shyt is corny..

I can only imagine what they wold have tried to dig up to slander cam if he won...

 

[PhonZhi]

man this shyt happened in 96...if ppl wanted to make a big deal out of it they should have done so years ago. I don't even care anymore

the fact that the university tried to get her to put the blame on a black athlete doesn't make you feel any type of way?

 

[kevm3]

Props to her for not giving in to the pressure and blaming the black player, who would probably have been sitting in prison for half a decade over a complete fabrication.

What the fukk am I even reading here?

Guy is shining a light on how powerful and influential person in the public eye got away with sexual assault and used racist tactics to try and cover it up. How is this in ANY way corny or a bad thing?

Is it really that serious?

Yea..it kinda is

If what is laid out in the article happened I dont see how people can just brush it off as some jilted floozie

All in all Peyton will never have to face any serious repercussions because a lot of people have eaten off his image....

that doesnt mean we cant dissect his failings....the same as we do with ANYBODY else
