I guess for positive it puts us closer to the guy and gals in the mags where we can ask questions.
Alot of info about training, nutrition and supplementation is passed
Great stories and gossip if you're into that.

negative

Bad info about supplementation
gossip

I think its positive overall for anyone in the sport is honest. at least if the weiders or the judges or whoever do something blatantly unfair then its all over the boards in hours.

Positive= It has allowed the supplement companies to cash in and sell even more products than ever. The gay-for-pay business has also flourished thanks to the net.

Negative= It has made us more aware of the shady characters that this industry is littered with.

Positive= It allows us as fans, to follow the bbing circus a bit more closely. Before the internet, you didn't know constest result till 3 months later, when the magazines came out.

Negative= Derek Anthony.

Negative: It made steroids accessible to every jerkoff on earth, thus contributing to the current anti-steroid frenzy.
