Posted by Tom on 1/11/2007, 11:30:27, in reply to "Re: Mark McGwires biggest Fan " I defend the guy because I don't think he's putting Mark down for doing steroids. We can all agree that people either believe Mark did it or didn't do it. That's fine. I don't begrudge anyone who believes Mark is natural. SW seems to know his stuff about steroids and supplements and how they may or may not play a role in MM's physique. Why do I believe him? Because I've worked with many bodybuilders and have done so much research on the stuff. I've seen the positives and negatives. And a lot of people don't have this opportunity. So yes I tend to agree with some of SWs points. And I don't mind having a healthy debate with my informed opinions with others, especially ones who have never seen the subtle differences between a natural physique and an enhanced physique. I must reiterate that there is a difference between defending SW and attacking Mark and/or being a troll on this forum. Personally, I'm a huge fan...I'm just one who believes he has done steroids. And those types of fans can exist, can't they? After all, who's right is it to define the word "fan"? Thanks for reading,
APOH, I'm aware that bodybuilders are called "meatheads." It's not exactly vulgar, but it doesn't have the most complimentary connotation. I'm not one to judge whether you're a "beanpole" or not; just pointing out that for "meathead" there is an opposite that can be interpreted as unflattering.
