Denver Broncos quarterback Peyton Manning has been listed in an Al Jazeera undercover probe as one of several prominent professional athletes who were supplied illegal performance-enhancing drugs from an Indiana-based anti-aging clinic.

Manning has vehemently denied the allegations, telling ESPN's Chris Mortensen that "it absolutely never happened."

The documentary, posted online early Sunday morning and set to air on TV later in the day, reports that Manning was given a supply of human growth hormone in 2011 while he was recovering from surgery that year from a man identified by Al Jazeera as a pharmacist employed at the Guyer Institute in Indianapolis. The report cites a man named Charlie Sly, who allegedly spoke to an undercover reporter working for the network.

Sly told Mortensen that he isn't a pharmacist and wasn't at the Guyer Institute in 2011, as Al Jazeera claimed. State licensing records indicate that a Charles David Sly was licensed as a pharmacy intern in Indiana from April 2010 to May 2013. His license expired May 1, 2013.

IMO Al-Jazeera is about as reliable with reporting the news as half the beat writers on Twitter. It is interesting to see Manning, a guy with such a squeaky-clean image, be pinged on such a negative issue. The bit about HGH shipments being sent to Manning's address in his wife's name are peculiar.

I was reading on Twitter today that athletes should be able to take HGH to recover, i'd be ok with that I think. It's better than them taking painkillers and playing hurt IMO
