I was probably about 13 years old when I went to a local bodybuilding show. A friend of my parents was in the contest and she was pretty freaky. At the show, the guest poser was Ron Love. I didnt know anything about the sport, but this guy took a few minutes to talk to me after the show and I thought that was very cool. I picked up some weights soon after. Fortunately my next door neighbor owned a gym that I could ride my bike to. I then started to buy the mags here and there and was surprised to see the guy who talked to me about training in those magazines.

I'm a youngin and wasen't born untill 1980 so alot of the studs like arnie were gone by that point in time. but Dorian was and still to this day is my all time favorit BBer. I do realize that there are bros out these days that could and would probley beat him, but we all have to addmit that the man is one of the sports all time "GODS". I've always liked Nasser alot and back in the day when I was real young I liked Mike Francious and Andres Munzzer(RIP) alot as well. sorry if I spelled the names wrong! But these days I'm really starting to get on board with Cutler. I got the chance to sit down and talk with him directly last Oct. at the "O" and I couldn't believe what I hell of a guy he was. I'm a good size boy for being 22yrs old,but NOTHING close to cutler. and he talked directly to me as if I was an old time friend. He's got my support for that reason alone. besides, it's time for Alien Gut ronnie to get the hell out of the spot light.
good luck and be safe...

thanks for the cool replies, guys...

....I also remember beng blown away by pics of Chuck Sipes - who I think was ahead of his time. He was ripped to the bone - and had mass to boot. I felt bad when I heard years later that he took his own life.
