Ahhhhh..spoken like someone who truly doesn't know the industry, or the ROI from athlete endorsed contracts.


How do you actually calculate the ROI from an athletes contract/sponsorship with accuracy? ::) ::)  Hint: You can't.

So why are you talking out of your ass and making up shit? ::)

Yes you are right.  Dealing drugs isn't considered work nor is dancing for guys and getting paid.  So yes you are right

I didn't know Shawn could dance!

That makes sense to me although since the supplement companies continue to dish out contracts ($$) to athletes bodybuilders, it must be working.


I'm thinking a lot of people in the "industry" are schomoe or fans who just want an excuse to get close to the bodybuilders, so they do this even when it doesn't make that much financial sense.  Since it's difficult to measure actual results, I'm sure they justify it to themselves by thinking it helps, but I doubt they're really getting their money's worth out of it.

Because BB isn't a sport that appeals to a wide sector, unlike Football, or baseball, etc...It's a small nitche type sport...like cliff diving, or Ironman competitions...the harder the sport is to participate in, the less interest by the masses.

Do you think that people who know nothing about bodybuilding associates steroids with the sport,and thats why it's not that popular and gets a bad rap?

Only Pro athletes in the world who openly talk about their Drug use and do Gay4pay as a source of income. DON'T THEY GET PAID.

Shawn Ray made the most out of bodybuilding. The guy never had to work.

I guess G4P is not "work" to you Sean because you LOVE it, it is fun and games!  ;D

Chick, certainly agree bodybuilding is a niche activity but pro football is a damn sight more difficult to participate in. Even amateur football.

Supplement companies would be better off getting some local joes, pay them 2-5K for before and after shots than paying a BB "pro"

I still say your old user name was Knoxsville.  You post the same stuff about Shawn moving powder for cash and exotic dancing.
