Meet Charlie Sly, the man telling — and recanting — tales about doping, Peyton Manning and Ryan Zimmerman
By Justin Wm. Moyer December 28 at 4:09 AM
At 6-foot-4, he walked with the swagger of a successful high school athlete — even if his pale, fleshy physique no longer looked much like a figurine atop a trophy. He spoke confidently of the minutiae of sports doping, including NFL-banned hormone Delta-2 (or D-2), HGH, Adderall, Dexedrine, Toradol, Ipamorelin and how long it takes testosterone to leave the human body.
And, unknowingly part of Al Jazeera America’s controversial investigation of performance-enhancing drugs, a man the network identified as “doctor of pharmacy” Charlie Sly wasn’t shy about sharing his knowledge — and pushing his products.
“I can give you something to use right now,” Sly told Liam Collins, reportedly pushing steroids on the British hurdler Al Jazeera had go undercover. “… There’s a bunch of football players who take this. And a bunch of baseball players who take it, too.”
Sly — if his recorded statements accurately convey his views, perhaps the least discreet advocate of performance-enhancing drugs ever — also opened up about his alleged clients.

Meanwhile, Sly — a former unpaid intern at the Indianapolis-based Guyer Institute of Molecular Medicine, which treated Manning, as The Washington Post’s Barry Svrluga and Mark Maske reported — declared himself an unreliable narrator.
“It has come to my attention that the broadcaster Al Jazeera has somehow obtained recordings or communications of me making statements concerning a number of athletes, and that Al Jazeera plans to air a program about them,” Sly said in a denial posted to YouTube. “Any recordings of me were made without my knowledge or consent. It is my belief that an individual named Liam Collins secretly made those recordings. Liam is a recruited fraudster who is banned in his native United Kingdom from running any investment businesses. The statements on any recordings or communications that Al Jazeera plans to air are absolutely false and incorrect.”
