49. I'm not accusing you...

But I have noted the legions of Patriots fans still butthurt over their own cheating scandals screaming this story from the mountaintops, so there's nothing wrong with me pointing out that they're more motivated by tearing down Manning instead of getting justice for the trainer...

Full disclosure: I have no dog in this fight -- I hate Brady/Manning, and the Pats/Colts/Donkeys all with the same amount of contempt... And I've also been around the block enough times to know that all "heroes" have something in their past which may or may not ever see the light of day...

And King's writing on this is shaky at best (especially since he's so hellbent on whitewashing his hero Cam Newton)... The original Daily Beast piece is a bit more straightforward: http://www.thedailybeast.com/articles/2016/02/01/peyton-s-manning-s-forgotten-sex-scandal.html
