Anti-drug douche, you need to go to another board. There is plenty of room here for discussion of golden age v current, assisted V drug-free, asthetic v monster, etc. on this board, but when you act like an idiot you just need to shut your mouth and leave.
I will say right off the bat, I was not there, so I am judging by the pictures, everyone knows sometimes things look different in person.
I'm surprised Markus got as high as he did. Not because he didn't deserve it(or higher) but just because of the hype, negativity, politics, etc. He was given no chance of winning this show and he probably should have won it. Evan was the favorite, the heavily publicized up and commer and has the support of a major magazine. No surprise he won, however....
In my opinion Ruhl should have won, Dj should have been second and Evan third. Ruhl was huge and in excellent condition. He was more ripped than Evan or DJ and his legs were crazy. Huge and shredded. I also thought DJ looked very good and still big for trying to look more "asthetic" and not so huge and freaky, to score better. Evan looked good, but I've never really been really excited about him. For some reason I don't see him growing into a superstar perennial Olympia threat like a lot of people seem to think, but I could be wrong. On that stage, I don't think I was wrong. He was good and third would have been ok, he shoudln't have won.
I don't understand the negative comments about Ruhl. If you don't like his physique fine, but do you know he takes any more drugs than any of the other guys up there? Do you know he uses more synthol than the other guys up there? People act like he is a sub-human monster when he seems pretty nice. He does not gave good genetics for a pretty physique. He has size, conditioning and presentation at his disposal and he is huge and came in ripped. His waist was also very good for a guy that size. Better than it has been in the recent past. He also was quite vascular and the only guy with a horizontal line separating the upper/lower pecs. His arms have never been great and haven't changed. Don't you think he would use synthol to try and make them bigger and better shaped? Don't you think synthol would affect the things I just mentioned. I am not really a huge fan of his, but I like him and I can see why he retired and probably won't compete after this even though he could. He is not popular with judges and the powers that be. Also, you always read about everyone wanting to see guys bigger and leaner, but when guys get super big and freaky everyone complains. Same thing with Branch Warren, I think he is getting tired of making improvements, and killing himself to get into freaky condition and then get overlooked and written off as "too blocky" or whatever.
Finally, I am very interested in this rat piss. Is it legal? Does anyone have a protocol? Is it injected? Subq, or IM? Can you take it orally? rectally? intranasally? I really think there needs to be an aritcle on this new breakthrough introduced to us but teasingly left unexplained in detail. Anti-drug douce, can you shed some light? I gotta know, I'm just sure it's the big secret I don't know about that will get me huge and ripped. The magic bullet I've been looking for.
