Review of Mark Dugdale's "Driven" DVD + LOTS of pics.

[ManBearPig...]

I'm not jealous of you walking in first into that bar that night, Mark.




























I have a boyfriend.

[sarcasm]

Thanks sarcasm.  While disagreements are understandable I can't see anyone having any major qualms with anything I say on here.

I've had pros call me to discuss stuff I've written about them and I think it only takes a few minutes of speaking with me for them to understand I'm a reasonable person and not just here to hate.

I've seen pros really get roasted on here and in comparison, this one is mild.

everything i've ever read that you've written either on here or in the BB video reviews has been accurate and brutally honest in terms of poundages lifted, food eaten, bodyweight, height, financial situation, etc.

LOL!!!  You win, Power Rod.  I can't compete with that.  If you come to Seattle I will take you to Capital Hill and buy you a beer.

Welcome back, Matt.  Your review was on point, but some of your posts got a bit off track, but hey, I agree with you.  When you put yourself out there and call yourself a Christian people are going to come after you.  Jesus himself said, "They will hate you because of me."  I'm cool with that.  I might be a hyprocrite to some of you, but I would be a bigger one if I denied my own beliefs.  I take exception to people saying I am preachy.  You ask me what I believe and I will give you an answer, but I'm not out to stone anyone with scripture or "sell" Jesus.  Everyone is free to make their own choices.  Truth be told we are all extremely religious, yourself included Matt.  I put my faith in Jesus, you put your faith in logic, reason and science.

240, your posts are as predictable and as smelly as my bowel movements.

[body88]

Mark the Christian thing to do would have been to acknowledge my 2 posts I wrote to you  

[gordiano]

Let me ask a couple of legitimate questions.

Mark, what if your girls were to ask about your drug use. Would you, just tell them that its okay because they're prescription? Does that justify it?

If your body is your temple, do you feel you are doing right (within yourself and your religion) by it using these potentially harmful drugs?


BTW, I respect the fact that you are here taking the time to post and read this board. I hope you will respond to my questions.

See Mark, I knew that with an intelligent discussion everybody would agree on something  

Matt isn't a bad guy but he always call it like he see it and that is very respectable

Mark,

Sorry if this has been asked already, but do you supplement with Testosterone?  Is it just enough to keep your body functioning normal or is it over that amount where it falls under juicing?  I ask this because if you are in need of hormone replacement therapy, then that means that your natural hormone production is probably low to begin with, so supplementation of it will only bring you right to where you need to be in orderto be healthy.  Yet, if you can get that big (Professional Bodybuilder Big) then you obviously must have more than just the needed Test running through your body.   If you are using more than your body needs, is that not a sin?  Does the thought of vanity ever trouble you?

Im trying to be neutral here Mark, I like the package you bring to stage and so Id like to be objective here..

240, your posts are as predictable and as smelly as my bowel movements.

And it seems to humor comes to you about as naturally as any bodyweight over 160




nice to have ya here man!  it's a tough place but if you have the skin for it, you'll stand out from many of your peers.

Christina would tell them they are treading on thin ice and they will be grounded if they bring it up again.    lol, jk.

Yes, I can agree we all have some form of faith.  An atheist was once debating this with another atheist and explained how we all do have faith in some manner.  The debate was somewhere on here:

http://community.livejournal.com/convert_me

When I read that community I realized how logically indefensible any organized religion is so I stopped trying to debate it.  My mother's only debate on the subject is that it makes her feel better - so be it.

As for me taking things too far sometimes - I agree.  I have no problem at all with you thinking that I am neurotic.  It is something I am well aware and I'm going to start trying hard to sort that aspect of my life out very soon.

Why?  Do you have a fragile ego and need some reassurance that we are friends?  Just stealing some of the language of the scholars on here.  All joking aside... it's cool.  I don't feel like I'm being attacked at all... this entire thread has been very encouraging.

Thick skin!!!! Are you saying I'm on GH?     Actually, it's getting kind of boring hearing the same old argument over and over again.

No fragile ego amigo. I just thought I would let you know I was not trying to attack you or be a dick for no reason. The entire BB world has nothing but great things to say off you. I wanted you to know I did disagree with a few statements you and 3g made ( and took at jab at them in fun with the cartoon). But I respect you and think you are a great bodybuilder. Anyway good luck this year!

Mark.

Believe me.

No one is ever going to accuse you of being on gH.

Heck, you could tell us your natural and we'd believe you.

[OneMoreRep]

Mark,

Since you couldn't answer my previous question, why don't you tell us what the fvck is going on here?

[DK II]

Wow, props to Mark.

When have we last seen a pro that was willing to debate with us here?


and by the way, it was me photoshopping the Tamali pics. 

[TheGoldenPrince]

This heated ongoing debate has shown for the umptieth time that Jesus Christ is Lord forever and ever more, and Creator of all!

Thats a pretty hipocritical statement from someone who blasts and makes fun of people.....you make me sick. Thats much worse than insulting me.....hypocrite!! Go away and never come back....Hope this helps!

[natural al]

wow...and you guys wonder why no pro's post here....unbelievable

[Mark_Dugdale]

Mark,

Ummm... T-Bar Rows.

[body88]

wow...and you guys wonder why no pro's post here....unbelievable

Hmmm lets tee. Lee Priest, Tony Freeman,Goerge Farah, JAY CUTLER, Mark Dugdale, Milos, Shawn and a slew of other guys. They all post on the regular. We were all respectful to Marc with this thread. We voiced opinions. The pros who post herr are the ones who dont need to have there ego stroked all day long by ass kissers. Love it or hate this board is the best of them all.
