I am from wisconsin and a huge pack fan but I’ve always suspected something. Hes been pretty much non effective this year. Whether thats because of the attention he gets or the fact he stopped taking hgh im not sure

So basically, NBC lets its, a-hem, “moderators” censor comments based on their personal fan affiliations. Well, heck, that’s good to know. And so professional, too. :roll:

Would they have a team. Clearly, a lot of players are using them or else there wouldn’t be such a fight not to test. Red Flags here and I’m not talking about play review ones. What about coaches? Some of those D Line coaches looked jacked and they’re years out of the game. Refs too….

kibawib, “…84th among all NFL players with 1.0 sack for the season” but is still being disruptive as hell despite being doubled and tripled up.

Weeks 7 & 10. Should be a blast.

===============================
Disruptive as hell?!?!? WTF?

Nah he wasn’t accounted for last year after his fast start……UFFFF!!!!!!

You just cannot admit anything, can you?

By the way junior, the Bears have a worse OL than the Vikes do.
Yet old Clay managed 3 tackles and 0 sacks against them.

It’s readily apparent to everyone but you cheesers that something is rotten.

As stated before You don’t gain 80 – 100 pounds of muscle without aid of PED’s

Karma is coming for you Packer fans- and boy is she pissed off. I cannot wait.

All the small minded, jealous fans of the MN lavender larries so quick to point fingers at the Clay Maker demonstrate their level of intellectual dishonesty by conveniently forgetting the Williams’s fight to cover up their illegal drug use. Perhaps the same claim can be made that back in ’09′ the queens wouldn’t have won the Norse division had there been HGH testing. Oh well, what do expect from a fan base where most of their parents are siblings.

—————————–
How funny- this guy thinks anyone that thinks Clay is using is a Viking fan- why are you obsessed with the Vikings.

Sir, it’s as plain as the vagina in your pants to every other fanvase that he is. Only you inane homers think otherwise.

To the fans of every other NFL team.

Welcome to the wonderful world of Packer fandom.
Worst fanbase in pro sports-hands down.
Inane
Hypocritical
Loudmouth
Know nothing.

Isn’t it sickening?

What’s the real story on HGH and are these tests reliable?

By 2008, USC listed Matthews at 246. That’s 81 pounds of weight (muscle) on Matthews since a junior in high school (over 6 years), which is probably not unheard of for college linemen; for a linebacker to retain or increase speed while packing on 80 pounds, that’s fantastic.

Oh well, what do expect from a fan base where most of their parents are siblings.”–There’s a huge difference but you can’t see that because you’ve been staring at your A-Rodge Fathead too long. The Williams took a weight loss product that wasn’t banned by the NFL. Matthews has seen his production plummet to 1.0 sack through 5 games after Congress started pushing for HGH testing. The only people who don’t see the connection call themselves Packer fans.

———————————————————-
No doubt about that. Even against the Vikings’ mediocre takles, Matthews will be luck to double his sack total. Which would give him two sacks for the season. J-u-i-c-e-r.

Clay Matthews weighed a buck 85 in high school then somehow packs on 45 to 50 pounds of muscle…..veins popping out of calfs and foreheads is not natural.

Signed,

not a fan of vikings or pack. Just an observer of the obvious.

—————————————–

If you’re in shape, veins popping out is very natural. Sounds like something you may not be familiar with though.

The only difference is this base is in eastern Missouri, and they cheer for a baseball team.

Before the admission:
“You’re just jealous.”
“There’s just no way.”
“He’s just genetically predisposed to be that big.”

Only question is, after Matthews admits to it, are you go going to be as shameless as Cardinal fans and instantly say, “Oh, what a hell of a man to have the courage to admit to it,” as they did for McGwire?

I have to say, this guy amuses me. I’m sure he hasn’t lived a charmed life. This individual has made the decision to base his life commenting on every article on this website. He talks up the steelers through anger and the word he likes to use, jealousy. That SB loss must have provided many sleepless nights, since the steelers success is all he really has. If you want my vote, keep it up! You’ve helped so many realize that life could always be worse. 31-25.. 6.

it’s pretty obvious that jared allen doesn’t take HGH if you just look at his body. however, looking at clay matthews or ape face as i like to call him, he is definitely a suspect when it comes to HGH. why is he not having as good of a season as last year? is it maybe because he found out they will start testing this year and stopped taking it? bet you if they could do a hair analysis he would test positive for HGH no question. maybe he wont test positive now but his play is going to do nothing but decline til he’s the same caliber play as his brother with the eagles. i should also point out that i am not a fan of any team in the nfc in fact my team isn’t even in contention but it’s pretty obvious ape face’s place has declined the the HGH testing announcement this summer.
