Wrong - he justifies not paying for it because it is FAKE. He rubs in the fact that Tom tried harming him by backtalking Nasser regardless of the fact that Nasser gave free advice and never asked for any compensation for it. Nasser is EXTREMELY patient - I remember this Tom guy talking so much shit about him YEARS ago and Nasser kept giving him chances until finally today.
Nasser puts a value on his own advice. So does Milos.. No difference.
I agree with McFarland. I think the piece was very interesting but I'm not so sure that he is incredibly "just" in pulling other people into this. You say he's just trying to add credibility to his story, I agree, but he is most definitely thoughtlessly doing so to make a point.
If that were Shawn Ray posting, the whole board would be against him. Everybody would be calling him a rat and so forth. That letter probably divulges more information than Shawn has ever given to the DEA. Certainly, reading that, if I were the DEA I would visit Nasser - he appears to want very desperately to be "heard" now that he is not onstage being "seen".
Your problem, Bigbobs, is that your religious fervour for Nasser goes beyond the level of basic decency. Thats fine with me, but I don't think you have any credibility whatsoever when it comes to debating Nasser's ethics. The difference between McFarland and you is that he still maintains his logic.. Being a sheep, you're unable to question anything the guy says. It isn't a matter of "oh big deal he acknowledges that X is on steroids", its that he's prepared to spill it all to get some attention.
There is one good thing about this whole affair. Nasser is getting increasingly desperate to get attention. Hopefully at some stage that will mean some good old fashioned hilarity. Bodybuilding is a mighty fragile thing though, a person like Nasser, crying out for attention could most definitely hurt it.
Either way I'm good but I can see McFarland's point.
