    Anyone see the strongman comp today on ESPN2?

    I believe it was Magnus Samuelson from Norway that won...dude was a beast... had a tat on his chest that said "viking power". It was the 2001 World's Strongest Man but anyway, Phil Phister missed the mark again.

    They don't test for 'em. Heck, I can think of at least one WSM competitor who was a SOURCE.

    It's not that huge of a contest. And the prize money is pathetic.

    You think that a certain young American, barely legal age, got to 285 lbs. at 5'9" naturally? Heck, he admits he used and sold.
