they are blowing sugar on eachothers balls.

i know that interview youre talking about, i dont think wheeler meant he introduced him to steroids, i think he introduced him into further drugs and made the contact to some "guru" possible.

compare ronnie today with his alleged natural time, it doesnt make sense.

In the 80's, a lot of steroids(and XTC) came from TEXAS. Some even called it the steroid capital of the world. The stuff ran rampant even through the high schools way back then. Anyone thinking Ronnie wasn't on the gas back then is just naive and/or retarded.

Flex cites Ronnie as turning pro as a "drug-free athlete", much like Mike Quinn.

From that MD article, May 2011, page 155:

FW: OK, now people will call me a coward if I don't ask you this next question. You turned pro as a drug-free athlete. As some point, you had to make the decision to use more things to make sure you weren't at any disadvantage. I remember staring at the first needle I ever put in my body for two hours before I could take that step. Were you comfortable with doing what the other top guys were doing?

RC: Not really. But, I ain't gonna lie, I had no problem with it, after I had that talk with you. You said this is what we're all using, and if you want to be one of the best, you're gonna have to do it, too. So I said OK, if that's what it takes.

FW: I know for me, it was mind-boggling to what how fast and how much my body changed once I started using stuff. Was it pretty crazy for you, too?

RC: Really, I hardly noticed it. I was already real strong. I'd deadlifted and squatted 750 pounds without it. I didn't get a whole lot stronger I didn't even notice a lot of size. The only thing I noticed was I was a lot harder than I was before. The size came, but it was sort of gradual. My off-season weight eventually went from 270 to 300. But, since I was already big and strong, it wasn't like some night and day change or nothin'.

so darreem charles was a natural pro bodybuilder

and ronnie coleman was natural until he got his pro card.

not only was darrem natural, he didn't even train, all caribbean genes

Ronnie didn't juice until 2 weeks out from the 98 mr O. Even then, just a little, and only cause he heard a rumour the other guys used that them there steroids

Quinn has stated that before. What motivation would he have for stating that, if he knew (or at least highly suspected) that such was not the case?

Flex said something similar about Ronnie. In the MD interview, Flex was the one who talked Ronnie into going the way of the needle, a move Flex jokingly said he regrets, because that's when Ronnie started beating him.

Ronnie coleman is gifted, he was strong and grew muscle easy

But there's no way in hell, he was ever natural, that pic or vids of his 1st show, you telling me he is natural...

He was as natural as mike ashley, jean-paul guillaume, boyer coe, steve davis, skip la cour, john hansen, bill pearl, tinnerino, etc

Same old bullshit

Exactly. He's the only one on the planet that didn't use steroids to build muscle. lol.

Mike christian, bannout, and others of the day used same generic line, they used steroids to mantain, pre-contest... Otherwise they did not believe in abusing nor relying on anabolics for growth, and didnt need it!

Mike quinn is the kind of guy that wouldn't go to gym unless on a shitload of gear, why bother mentality
Mike quinn was so insecure he wouldve never gone off

That being said, he was a great character, and one of the guys and personalities that made the 80s a colorful, and entertaining era of bbing.
Those days, when one opened a bbing mag, we believed the weider spin, of the pro athletes, the lifestyle, work-ethic, etc
The guys posing next to flash cars, with hot swimsuit models, articles written in eloquent fashion supposedly by them, etc

The mags have done tons of articles on Darrem's so called natural past. There was one where he had said that he had past 100s of drug tests, and when he was in Trini, he would do these little contests---he did train...

When Flex Mag did their breakdown of tests, they would say, "Darrem's back, is just a back...nothing spectacular"...You could tell that something was up with him, compared to the other guys on stage---like he wasn't running on premium octane...

As far as the Ronnie Coleman interview, that came from the Roundtable vid that they did last yr---Ronnie, Shawn, Flex, all at Ronnie's house.

Darrem charles was a very good pro, vastly underrated, but definitely not natural

I remember when he won some caribean champs circa 91 as an amateur, he was smaller, but already had the great arms - not natural already then

MQ: My dad had a little gym in the cellar and one day when I was thirteen, he decided it was time for me to start lifting. That first day, just messing around, I benched 220 pounds.

man, i have a fair priced bridge for sale, are you interested?

no come on

Of course, the second Ronnie started lifting his brother's/uncle's cement weights, he has his syringes at the ready, with enough anabolics to down a pack of elephants.

thank god.. breathe something back into the thread.. this guy added some flair to the day. contrary to now.. whats the big news? some german dipstick banging & slapping a xxx star? Or, yet another bald black dude looking big?

I'd say for all his attributes, worthy of respect.
