How can you be a snitch and a fraud, then still command respect?

How can you be a snitch and a fraud, then still command respect?

I'm talking about Anthony "Roberts" Conners. I'm amazed this bottom feeder is still out there!

I was emailing a friend that I've known since elementary school, who writes for a fairly prominent fitness mag, I was asking her about life etc, and then asked her opinion on a particular supplement. She replies that she's familiar, but doesn't know, and "could ask Anthony" for me. I reply "Not that Anthony Roberts Character??" and she proceeds to tell me that he's a friend and she talks to him frequently.

So my question is... How does someone who is in the industry, knows alot of people in the sports nutrition/bodybuilding industry and competition circles, has competed alittle herself, and is a qualified Dietician-- actually put any weight to what AR has to say?

Didn't everyone in the industry hear he's a snitch? Discredited? Makes internet toughman threats? Makes ridiculous quotes about people who hes never met... or at best, dislike him thoroughly?

I am atleast glad to see his advice torn apart by qualified experts in the sports medicine and life extension fields. Maybe someday he'll lose his internet connection and can quit telling 19 year olds to "Use Finasteride for PCT", "Use Nicotine as an Anti-E", and "Shoot Un-estered Boldenone into your Traps"!

I'd love to rant more... but I'm going to go pose for a Ralph Lauren photoshoot!

hes a fucking clown and dosnt lift weights or train for anything

his credibility is zero and every opinion of his is refutable

 

[Ivan]

Wow

I am amazed that your friend did not know what an assclown he is! It seems that there are those in the fitness industry that stay away from the internet gossip etc.. well sometimes this is where the truth can be found. I hope you filled her in what a fraudulent fuckstick he is. "I can go ask Anthony" -- makes me sick.

 

[mikeyt869]

the kids a fuckup theres no two ways about that one.

 

[kid1dakota]

Its funny how things change It wasn't too long ago and people were quoting him like his word was gospel on this board.I did a quick search but,won't mention names

 

[mikeyt869]

bring on the names

 

[DrivingForward]

Seriously, bring on the names! LOL!

I remember calling him out on Steroid.com a couple years ago, and getting laid into by like 15 "Vets" and or "Mods" about how great the dude was and how much he's helped "the steroid community".

Brian Clapp fires him, and those same "Vets" are all like... That Anthony is a fucking tool maaan... Gee, I wish I didn't have a link to his friggin book in my Signature all those months!

 

[Ehren]

I'm sure your friend is cool and all, but don't judge her too harshly...girls are pretty specific and very forgiving (about faults against OTHER people). Often, they seem to only care if someone is nice to them.

Hopefully, you were able to shed some light on his character and how friendship with him has not worked out for many people he's called, "friends".

 

[maldorf]

I guess he side stepped that law suit slapped on him? It sounded like he was going down for that one.

The guy seems to be untouchable, like nothing can stop him.

 

[DrivingForward]

He did get a huge "default" judgement against him, for failing to answer to complaint or file pleadings, etc..

But a judgement is merely a court declaring that one party owes the other... They haven't been able to enforce it (because he doesn't have any money), although they (Brian Clapp) keep petitioning to seize his websites (and any other property they can find).

But I have to figure it costs Brian Clapp a pretty penny to seize AR's websites, I mean they have to pay an attorney to deal with the court AND his ISP in order to gain posession... x# of hours x $300 an hour to seize a website that cost $20 to register and is re-opened on another server the next week.

Then again... Brian Clapp is a moron douche who sells fake steroid caps to highschool kids... I mean "me-TAN-des-o-lone???" What the hell is that? This is what BC sells as "Dball"?

I'm sorry to see their divorce, Anthony Roberts and Brian Clapp could have made such a power couple in San Francisco.

LOL. Yeah, I used to see those phony supplements advertised on Anabolic Review back in the day I was on there. Connors is one of the reasons I left that board.
So he is that broke, or he knows how to hide his money? I know he was living at home with his mommy and daddy. A video of him stanging outside the house smoking a cigarette was posted on youtube I think. Not sure if its still on there.

Well... They can't silence him short of a bullet, but he doesn't seem to be doing much these days.

I hear he's broke.. Hard to say though if he's just hiding his assets. On the other hand, I don't see what could possibly be generating any income.

 

[morepain]

when he was "the steroid guy" at t-nation i called him out and everyone there attacked me. It was fucking ridiculous...just goes to show anyone can be anything on the internet.

 

[terryd5150]

Simple...

He gains so much "clout" online because there is always an endless supply of n00bs in this game that wouldn't know the difference in Dbol and Drol if their lives depended on it.

To them, he is an infinite source of wisdom because he is well-spoken and seems to know "a lot" about AAS, its useage, and BBing as a whole.

To those that have been in the game a while, it's clear to see him for who and what he really is.

You seem like a pretty decent guy by your posts but these kind of threads really get old. I don't know Anthony Roberts but I know all one has to do is post a thread about him or someone like him and a million people come out and call him a douche bag. Not defending him but I am just saying this shit gets old. No offense but you have a screen name that can make you anyone, which in turn allows you to say and be anything. Why don't you post something like this is my real name and I hate Anthony Roberts because back in 2001 he did this to me outside an Applebees in Bangor Maine. Then you have a story that would be interesting and you would be somewhat accountable for. Once again no offense to you and no hard feelings just stating my opinion.

But I'm not in Bangor, Maine, Aeliop! I'm in Florida!

Actually Bro, I'm not sure I understand what you mean by that last post. I expressed my incredulity that people who "should know" about this guy, infact "don't know".

As far as my real name, I don't post it for obvious reasons on this site, but several of the sponsors know who I am. I am assuredly a real person, and am hoping to meet you for a consultation soon (I'm in WP when I'm not in Miami). I'm not trying to be a dick with my posts (although I've been rightly accused of being a dick sometimes). I'm really not a bad guy, I'm here primarily to learn. As an added bonus I can shoot the shit with other bro's of similar interest.

As for specifics with Anthony-- The extent of our exchange was trading insults on Steroid.com sometime in 06 or 07 after he published "Beyond Steroids", which I purchased from EliteFitness. I read the book, was completely dissatisfied with the content, openly said that several of his assertions were unfounded and maybe dangerous for some. Further, It wasn't really about cutting edge peptides or newly developed anabolics... It had 1 paragraph of mention each for about 10 compounds and then just regurgitated about 20 "steroid profiles" that were already on the web for free! Afterwards he continued with a litany of insults and threats, which made it all the way onto his anthony-roberts.com website or whatever it was called at the time. I was proud that my analysis of his book hit so close to home, and got under his skin on Steroid.com that he quoted me repeatedly on his own website.

If that fulfills your request, then so be it

Ask big A about Mr. Connors, AKA Anthony Roberts, and see what he thinks about him.

 

[aeliop]

Not my point at all.

Not my point that has not one thing to do with what I am talking about.

Yes that absolutely fills my request, you answered exactly what I was bitching about. You have first hand experience with him and it wasn't a favorable one. Now in my opinion your Thread has Merit. If you weren't such a gentleman I guess you could say you SMTFU....
