STFU hank.... >:(


Hahaha he's just a petty little coward who wouldn't dare look into the eyes of any of the guys he trashes. Let him take out his frustrations through an anonymous account - that's all he can do

The "Prince of Darkness" strikes again.I just got off of the phone with some of Erics Fromms good friends, to confirm his death, and yes he is not with us anymore.
All of his friends, are saying there was 2 diffrent Erics.The Eric that was an amazing person, who was driven and loved life.Then there was the Eric that got corrupted by Tom Prince, "The Prince of Darkness" as they call him in Denver.
I spoke to about 3-4 of his friends, including his mentor, in Denver, and they all say, that once he started hanging around Tom Prince, Eric went down hill from there.
They all said, Tom is the person who introduced him to Nubaine.
I am not blaming Tom for Erics death, but Eric at one time looked up to Tom Prince, because Tom Prince was a pro bodybuilder, and that is something Eric wanted more then anything.Eric loved being on stage, and loved fans walking up to him and asking him for is autograph.He lived for it.
If you talk to anyone of Erics friends in Denver they refer to Tom Prince as the "Prince of Darkness" because they blame him for corrupting Eric aswell as alot of other bodybuilders.Yes Eric should have never used Nubaine, but a pro bodybuilder Tom should know better then to intoduce  people try a very very adictive  injectable pain killer.It seems Tom not only fucked his own life, he did a good job of screwing up alot of other peoples lives aswell.


There are no victims in life.

McFarland is still the biggest douche Tom has ever met.

Did I tell you I took that as a compliment when he told me that, Matt?

Poor guy?  He was an adult that made a decision.  I feel bad for his family, not Erik.

Fromm got what he deserved.  I will reserve by sympathy and tears for true tragedies; rapes, stabbings, famines and senseless wars!

Erik Fromm is far from being classified as a tragedy.  His death is a result of drug abuse; pure and simple!

If this 'roided oaf' had stayed away from meth-heads like Cormier, he would still be around to 'shoot' another day!

God bless his poor family, who now have to bury their drug addicted son!
Yet another hypocrite chiming in. As a Christian wouldn't you say any death is a tragedy? Sorry Shawn Hank, I guess that doesn't apply to your bible.

Some of you guys are complete assholes. You say people aren't hurting anyone but themselves by taking various drugs and now you want to pass judgment?  The guy hasn't competed for 3.5 years and how do any of you know what his current state was... You don't.

He was far from perfect but what one of us on here is? Let the man rest in peace and show a little tact.

i agree man, some of these shitstains must have had an ass backward upbringing, i'm all for joking around as most of my posts attest to but making comments on a guy who just died makes you a scumbag, plain and simple.

Funny whoever you are, after reading this, I know know you are 100% telling the truth.  A good friend of mine is Scott Milne he and I were talking about this at the gym tonight.  He said pretty much exactly what you just said.  Tom Prince gave him his first shot of Nubain.  Said they were in Venice,CA at the time.

Are you talking about Erik or Milne? Isn't Milne the one who was busted with lots of rec drugs a while ago?

Watch what you are saying...people get a little hmm stiff lipped when you mention people dying from Steroid abuse.

Watch what you say. The word "steroid" never appeared in my post. I just said the death toll continues.

Dude, he's dead. He is resting in peace, whatever the fuck that means.

Hopefully, others can learn from this crap.... that's the only positive that can come out of this.  Not some RIP crap.

 The hypocrisy endemic in bodybuilding circles is staggering. Everyone knows the amount and level of widespread drug abuse amongst people in this industry; it's like the porn industry - which has actually cleaned up its act a bit recently - was a few decades ago. It's totally self-destructive and full of drug taking and debauchery that seems to make the participants no happier in their troubled lives. Most people either do nothing and look on as these people , who are often very impressionable and of limited intellect, descend into a spiral of addiction leading to prostitution and/or death, or they're too busy taking or supplying the highs.

Then, when someone finally succumbs, there is a lot of hand-wringing and mock grief when if people really cared they would actually have done something to clean up this shitty, drug infested, parasite-ridden, joke of a 'sport'.

 The time has come to clean up the excessive drug taking - the training cocktails are making the physiques look worse and about 70% of these users have habits that make them practically indistinguishable from street junkies shuffling around outside the HIV drop-in center.

I thought Milne's dad sent him off to school to London and forbid him to dabble in anything bodybuilding related after the bust? and after that guy ratted a bunch of people out... I'm surprised he's still walking...
