There is a reason Peter McGough has risen to the level where he is at, because he is very good at what he does. Great writer, understands bodybuilding, tries to keep it in a sense of respect, and really wants to see bodybuilding grow. He cares about it!
As for John Romano, he also is a very good writer, but there is a difference between the two. John loves to attack, speaks his mind on whatever he wants, and pisses off some people. He did write about Peter (and not nicely either), and other topics, which provoked emotions. That is his style, nothing wrong with it - gives for great discussion on message boards.
John is no longer with Bethany, he is back with his ex-wife, and son, and that is great for him. But I can come up to John, and ask him anything I want, no matter what the topic is, and I can't faze him. He loves the discussions here, just not the utterly baseless attacks.
That is true - Flex does not bash the internet boards, but also rarely acknowledges them (or Getbig), but MD will agree that the boards and the internet sites are a influence in disucssion, whether good or bad. And sometimes they absolutely get out of hand, in case, the Time Out Area, and being banned.
And yes - you don't have to look like a bodybuilder to be a fan. I can't beleive some of you think that? Have you ever been to an expo? At least 70-80% are the people are normall people who enjoy the sports. Jeez - how many people who like basketball play it, or baseball, or football. Get with the program and contribute.
