Re: Oh, geez, here it comes (dread)...
Well some of the media HAS dug, i.e. the ones who talked to other manufacturers of the stuff who said that there really couldn't be any of the substance in question in it.
The problem I have, is these ESPN reporters spewing off loads of crap without even questioning the credibility of the report, and Mitchell Ross. They are so eager to make this into another BALCO that they are tripping over themselves.
We as fans deserve better than to have media day ruined over something that looks completely fishy. If they are going to be "good" reporters, and be "in depth" and "insiders", then DO IT.
Instead we have that washed-up hosebeast Hannah Storm telling us that Ray "didn't REALLY deny using it" even though he said he didn't at least twice while he was on the podium.

Re: Oh, geez, here it comes (dread)...
The timing absolutely blows...it is obvious what SI is doing.
And it's up for debate if the stuff actually has IGF-1 at all and if it does, how much, and if it is even intact since it apparently needs to be handled with care.
Most of the stuff the guy said about his conversation is true...the only, only thing up for debate with Ray's dealings with him is if he sent Ray the Antler stuff and if Ray sprayed it. They did talk and Ray did ask the guy to send him a package.
It is not unreasonable to think Ray may have used the spray based on what he and the guy said. It sounds like in the end it doesn't mean anything because the stuff may not have had it at all.
The media's job is to follow/uncover stories to make money for the company. That is what they do. Yes timing means everything a lot of the time. It is what it is. Ray is not the first guy to have this type of thing happen to him.
Calling someone a Steeler fan is lame and childish. HR has been here and been a Ravens fan for years and it's always the new guy who comes in with that garbage.Although Walsh's system of offense can compensate for lack of talent; however, defense is a different story. According to Walsh, talent on defense was essential and could not be compensated for. What did Walsh do in 1981? He acquired physical and talented players on defense.

Now pft has an article up that the owner had a radio interview Tuesday expressing disappointment that Lewis didn't promotes SWATS. Can't link it ...on phone .
It seems clear he is smearing Lewis at this point

Re: Oh, geez, here it comes (dread)...
Outlets like SI don't "properly vet" stories any more. The guy probably made the recording in October, realized he might have a little skin in the game once the Ravens made the SB, called SI yesterday, they slapped it up on their website, and poof! -- here we are.
Manti Teo anyone? These guys don't fact check; they hear a rumor and run with it. There is no downside to being wrong, as long as they generate buzz, that's it. The public does not demand accuracy, so why waste resources providing it? Give them something to talk about, mission accomplished.
