The strange thing is no one from the old days compared himself to Reeves. He seemed beyond compare. The reality was different. He tied with Eric Pederson for the 1947 AAU Mr America and Eric lost because he had some acne. Reeves lost to Grimek. No contest. When Prince put my photo next to Reeves I thought here we go, another pasting. However, when I looked Reeves doesn't look great in that post. Sure he has great lines and so on but his compulsories were not great. So Prince did me a favour because I would never have even considered comparing myself with the past greats. While I admit that Reeves had a superior development it wasn't by much in some poses. This thread was meant as a spoof and I accept that. That is why the guys on Ironage think I am a fool for posting here.
