Great read...it really makes you think about a whole lot of things in not only football, but all professional sports.

Also, after reading that article, I find myself wishing that Poliquin would give us a little more respect than that.

Or how the sorry Cardinals could let such a physical specimen walk. Or how 30 other teams could let the Chargers scoop him up as a free agent for only 47 mil.By Tom Friend

I like that sarcasim. Oh and Key....chocolate chip OK

Go for the oatmeal cookie Key! What position did you play?

Flat out that is a big boy and fast.....holly cow, I'd damn sure hate to be in his path. So what's you're opinion, is he on the GH?

Fuck yes! So is just about every professional athlete where the benefits of GH and/or AAS give even a .05% increase in performance. What sort of convoluted logic could allow for any other conclusion...for real? If people on this board (and scores like us) are willing to take the stuff to fulfill our goals, which are rarely monetary in nature and simply for self-fulfillment in many instances how in the world can anyone deny the rampant presence of the stuff in a situation where the ability to perform at the top of your field allows you to take care of your family responisbly for the rest of your life, set up your parents who sacrificed for you, put yourself in the top .001% of income earners on the planet and generally open doors to your children, self and spouse that would have otherwise been closed forever, if even visible?

Makes you wonder how many other guys on his team are hitting up his trainer for the "secret". And how about this; What if one team hired a trainer like he has and put the all linemen on this regiment and ended up winning the season, bet every team after that would be doing the same thing. That would be weird to see an entire offensive line or defense for that matter all looking like Ronnie Coleman!

That chick in the pic has 50lbs of something in her arms.

**Juggernaut** · 08-22-2003, 11:20 AM

Too funny Bama....in fact her arm is as big as his. Damn, wonder what's she's on. Ha

**Animal Cracker** · 08-22-2003, 11:26 AM

She is on a cooking oil cycle. i wonder how long it took her to put that much poundage on.

A very valid point.
But as a counterpoint: most of the people on this board lead very clean, regimented lives in order to achieve the end of getting big. The question is, though, just how dedicated are we? Do we live and breathe fitness like this guy theoretically does? I am more inclined to agree with you than not, BG, make no mistake: but as the devil's advocate, I'm wondering if it's *possible* to make such gains without GH/AAS if your entire life is dedicated to diet/fitness.
