Running across a story from 2011, about PM going to Europe for a procedure

quote:

Peyton Manning's trip to Europe to receive stem cell therapy on his ailing neck is the latest attempt by an elite athlete seeking to expedite recovery from injury using a controversial medical procedure.
A Fox Sports report Sunday detailed how the Colts quarterback and four-time league MVP sought the stem cell therapy after two surgeries on his neck did not help address a painful bulging disk. He had another surgery recently, the third in 19 months, and it's unclear if Manning will be healthy enough to play this season.
While the NFL does not prohibit stem cell therapy - "unless a banned substance is used as part of the procedure," said an NFL spokesman - the treatment is not approved in the U.S., and it is still very much a developing science.


but I saw this in the story

quote:

Green, the Miami Project co-founder, told the Daily News it's unusual that Manning would seek stem cell therapy for that type of injury since "there's no evidence that stem cell treatment can help repair a bulging disk or help a patient recover from" that type of injury.



so was trying to get it fixed, it wasn't working, then he went to Europe to have a procedure done that has no proof of working for his condition, then all of a sudden.....MVP?

smells fishy

i assume every player that has to go to europe to get something done is doing something against the ruled. But I really don't care if they do so whatever.

To me if it's injury related why not let them use it that way.

At this point, who cares?

Kobe
Tiger
Ray Lewis
Adrian Peterson

P. Manning

I agree.
They get paid a lot of money to play, and we pay a lot of money to watch them play, not stay hurt. I don't want to see Peyton or AP or LeBron or Kobe or anyone like that having to miss a whole season or more b/c of an injury. Let them do whatever the hell they want to get back

Oh, so you're trying to start a rumor without any proof, based on some ignorant assumption?

This deserves to go on the SECRant.

I personal know an Olympic track guy who had the stem cell procedure done 5-6 years ago. It worked and allowed him to make his third Olympics. Nothing fishy about it. My friend is drug tested every few months and more often during the Track season.

To me if a player is injured they should be allowed to receive whatever treatment helps them recover. If they are otherwise healthy then it is a different story.

This sounds like somebody making a retarded political statement about stem cells.

I don't even think HGH should be against the rules if it is being used to help with a medical procedure.

So even if he did, I don't care.
