Why are people so fucking delusional?

It's in the NFL/NBA/MLB/ ....best Intrest and financial pockets That their top players continue to play day In and day out

oh give me a break.  go around and ask 100 people if they think mr. fucking olympia uses steroids or not, see how many say no.

Not a chance , they associate bodybuilding with steroids

fuck... this is frustrating that i even have to argue about this with you people.

 i take it neither of you are actually muscular, nor do either of you actually know anyone who is has pro level size. people might suspect roids when they see a huge dude, but if the dude just tells them no i dont take drugs, i workout 7 days a week and eat 5 lbs of meat everday plus i got good genetics, they will believe it without any problems

for fucks sake we have people on getbig who think ronnie coleman was a natural up untill 1998. most bodybuilders i have talked to thought they could be a pro naturally during their first few years of training.  people just dont have any clue about the limits of the human body.  

go watch the video of jay cutler doing an interview with las vegas news promoting the olympia. someone just posted it yesterday.  he is sitting next to a skinny little white woman. he could easily pass as a natural if he just said " i work out like crazy all the time".

[cephissus]

okay maybe if he's sitting with a sweatshirt on and you ask someone who doesn't know who he is, they could be fooled.

if you took the average person, though, and sent them to the olympia tomorrow and told them jay was all natural, they wouldn't believe you.

[tbombz]

with their only knowledge being that if you lift weights your muscles grow...  all you have to do is say " ive been working out everyday for the past 20 years" and they will not doubt for a second your natural. even if your jay cutler.

Again I strongly disagree , the general public associates the sport of professional bodybuilding with steroids and think anyone who competes is on and in most cases anyone who lifts weights is on , Gerard Butler was on Howard Stern yesterday and Howard asked him if he took steroids to get ' so big ' in 300 , needless to say he scoffed at the idea and said no , the average Joe thinks the kid from Twilight is huge nevermind a competitive bodybuilder who weights 100lbs more

If you show a picture of Jay Cutler to the average person on the street I would estimate 10-out-of-10 people will say he takes steroids. Now could Jay convince some average person he's natural by claiming superior genetics and a great diet and hard work? maybe , but in my opinion the person he would be try to convince wouldn't care either way and not put much thought into it

yes, he could convince any average person of that.

people know steroids exist.  the above pictures = steroids in the mind of the general populace.

it's physiques like this:







that are still commonly believed to be achievable without injecting hormones.

[NarcissisticDeity]

yes, he could convince any average person of that.

Maybe , but I think the preconceived notion is he's on and the onus now becomes convincing them he's not.

Great point , I agree 100%

[Nirvana]

people fucking think I'm on steroids

anyone who works out and has a decent physique is thought to be on steroids. if you can run a mile faster than someone it's "steroids".  of course they know cutler is on.

I'm on an NFL forum arguing with about a dozen guys about drug use in the NFL.  They are all arguing that their favorite players are all clean and I'm stating the obvious, that they are on performance drugs but also pain killers and narcotics.  You can't get the shit beat out of you week in and week out and not be on something to help ease the pain.

Yet these fools who watch ESPN beleive that the NFL is built on golden athletes with genetics 1000 times greater than anyone else and that they all train everyday to get into their inhuman shape that is also combined with amazing speed and agility.


Fucking fools.

Denial.

I mean- you are looking for the answer to that question on a board where Vince Goodrum and Mike Arvilla are posters?

Been there . . . done that.

That's a great everyday look, easy to maintain without a ton of gear.

Because you can get those without drugs

[The Showstoppa]

I think the AVERAGE person, ie someone who either doesn't workout or maintains the "health" look would assume ALL pro-bodybuilders are on juice, it's just in the media too much.  the "delusional" ones tend to be those who actually workout, but want to believe that turds who claim "all-natural" are telling the truth so that someday they can achieve the same look....... 

[The Grim Lifter]

Well they arn't involved in knowing about it so they can only go off the media unless they can think for themselves which is rare.

I remember sitting around with some friends and someone goes 'The Oscars are so rigged' and everyone agreed, my first thought was 'Nah it wouldn't be rigged, why would it be rigged' then i realised i was thinking just like normal people and drug use in sports because i knew nothing about the Oscars and never followed it at all

[El Diablo Blanco]

Unless you have 250 pounds of muscle people fail to recognize drug use but don't realize that you can use steroids for strength and recovery without adding slabs of muscle.
