Once you hit bottom you bounce back as a minister.

This story repeats itself time and again.

The magazine is Faith and Fitness.  Have they never read 1 Timothy 4:8?  "For bodily exercise profiteth little, but godliness is profitable unto all things....."

Another BB that couldn't win the big one and plastered himself with shitty ink when it was all over.

I remember an old video/interview he did one time proclaiming he "Would Be Mr O in Three Years..."  I don't even think he qualified for the O.

Franco’s been through a lot and it appears he’s straightened himself out,  so good for him.
The brother they mention is the real deal.  Super religious and super strong.  Very nice guy too…
Wish them both well……
