What's your fuking point, Swede? That it's pointless to acknowledge that someone in our sport has died? Someone that many knew and a person who was exceptionally decent and good. That it doesn't merit a thread here on GetBig but you moving into an apartment does?

Hey asshole, didn't you read the rest of this thread or is that taxing the upper limits of your attention span? The guy retired in his twenties because he didn't like the direction the sport was taking and walked away over twenty years ago.

Of course you don't. You're a typical self-absorbed generation nothingness freeloader. I just heard yesterday that Sweden has practically life long unemployment benefits. Is that how you afford to live in an apartment and bang 15 whores? You had a job once and now sponge off others who have endure the daily grind while you loaf around. Is that why you keep avoiding the question as to how you support yourself without a job?

Maybe you're right but if you knew Joe you would know that he was an exceptionally decent and good man always generous with his time helping others. Matt C's post was just one of hundreds examples.

LOL! There actually use to be a time when a man felt ashamed and disgraced when he couldn't support himself and his family. Not so today. Guys live with their parents until they close in on thirties and many try to game the system so they live off others.

I've been supporting myself since I was 18. Even though at times my living conditions weren't always ideal I always felt a since of pride that even if I was working menial jobs at least I was pulling my own weight. But guys today don't want to rough it.

I'd rather work at McDonalds and live in a card board box than freeload off welfare or other government programs.

Good to hear from you, my friend. Still training for Mr. GetBig?

The waves right now are way out of my league. Waimea and other beaches on the North Shore are at 30-40 ft. No joke. I know my limits.

No worries. I didn't know I was talking to you when I said "ass hole." I just immediately responded to the post without thinking. I've know Joe and corresponded with him for many years. None of the subjects were even remotely related to bodybuilding. Joe still trained to stay healthy, keep in shape and simply loved it -- but he was far, far more than a bodybuilder.

They're kids. Meeko's day was in the eighties when bodybuilding was still somewhat decent. But even then Joe saw the writing on the wall and although he was extraordinary gifted he had a good upbringing and was a clean cut kid. He knew this wasn't the sport for him.

His passing came as a complete shock to me because he lived such a healthy, wholesome lifestyle (although he was always battling health problems due to Lyme). He also had so many bad breaks in the last few years: near fatal car crash, wife who went crazy and of course the Lyme disease which he was battling for years but was never diagnosed properly. And this was just to name a few.

Joe was a good guy......he sent me a pair of his power grips free of charge and I still use them every week on back day.......used to post on my board at times.

Good guy, with a great physique, who will be misssed by people who know who he is.

Just thought I`d add that last pasrt due to the kids and their lack of bodybuilding history.

I also use his Power Grips on back day and have for years. Nothing matches it. Just make sure you get the right size.

He was a good guy. He was the kind of guy that after you talk to him he inspires you to want to be a better person.

Fuk!

joe was going to go the ifbb route, but after meeting joe weider changed his mind, being an old aau guy they probably would have screwed him in the contests. as stated on ironhistory in regards to aau mr americas, the first twelve who died lived to an average age of 78.3 years well above the normal life expectancy at the time. the next twelve died at an average age of 58.9 at the same time the average age expectancy for men went up. how can this be? all this being said joe meeko was a great guy nice to his fans not arrogant at all and he had a lot to be arrogant about....when his wife tried to do him in , he dropped all charges in the aftermath speaks volumes.
