I agree.
However to the insecure fucks on here starting threads on it, you know he's juicing. He's not shoving it in your face every chance he gets like Simon Panda or Mike O'Hearn. He probably got asked and had to say something.
If you get asked, by a journalist that you know is going to print the story, you would confirm off the record or decline. The sad fact is some poor 12 year old kid will actually believe this twit and forever taint his life by entering the schmoe game.
