his parents are definitely rich enough to do it
i don't like him as a pro, his best weapon seems to be his legs which is not what you should look for in a qb
I agree with both of your points.
it would be VERY naive for anyone here to say "No parent would ever put their kid on steroids/gh to make them play better/improve their pro potential". Overseas, they're doing it for Olympians from a very young age.
And yes, there are plenty of pro BBers that use steroids from 14 or 15, they get a headstart and they become the best pros in their sport. And that's only the sport of BBing, which is pretty fcking BROKE compared to an actual money sport like football. Ya know your kid can't fail a drug test, but there isn't a Gh test... I'm sure some parents are doing it.
We have no clue if Manziel is doing it. He does have some odd physical characteristics for a dude as short as he is... He does have a lot of things we would see in a young dude using GH.
Look at the pic... he does have some GH sausage finger hands. He does wear size freakin 15 shoes. He does have that gut. Look how big his nose and head are. I'm not accusing him of using GH... I'm just saying he has PLENTY of motivation, he has MEANS (rich parents can buy good docs/drugs) and he does look like what one would expect a GH-abusing non-bodybuilder 21 year old to look like. Anyone who denies these 3 things, well...
