I just saw that yesterday,
I caught that special as well. If I remember correctly, there was some guy (Brain Gumble) or so hosting it? I can't recall the host, but I do remember the clown sitting in his wheelchair whimpering about steroids are so bad this,...Blah, Blah, blah,... Also, just to add, that Gumble clown is almost just as bad as he is notorious for digging in on the sports area in a negative light.
At first I was like "what the hell is this guy talking about?" Calves and skin rotted out! Whaaaaa?... First thing came to mind.... This guy is obviously another has been that never was and is now pissed off at the world because of his legs and experience. Now it seems he is completely against gear since he had a bad experience and needs something to scapegoat and vent on. This clown was probably shooting a shitload of gear either daily into the same spot, contaminated or not clean process of administration which led to an infection, or someone could have sold him garbage. Looked like he just kept doing any one of them. Any one I would not rule out, but I would bet he was abusing the shit out of it, and through his own damn carelessness he "botched" things up that otherwise would have been something "common-sense" could have taken care of.
Steroids are medical drugs for one that have legitimate medical purposes manufactured by pharmaceutical companies in labs under usually stringent conditions or at the very least controlled sterile areas of lab quality. These are not heroin or cocaine street garbage that you would see some dude shoot up in an alley! POW's were administered this stuff after the wars to get themselves back to normal from being so sickly and undernourished.
I don't usually like to call names,....but this moron on TV is one of these dangerous people nowadays bitching to the media because he is just pissed on what happened to him with his situation. You don't see top pro's getting their legs cut off, or falling dead from gear use alone?... No, I'll bet If this guy had his legs back and was healthy, you can bet he would go back to gearing up again. It looked like he had a medical condition before using gear most likely, and along with whatever he was doing with the gear, did something to fuck himself up. It I can say was probably sloppy injects that led to some sort of an infection. Can happen with any injectable drug, I think had nothing to do with the gear. Sounds ridiculous,....does not make any sense whatsoever why gear would have a reaction like that to a healthy normal individual. When you understand what it does and it's function, just does not add up.
This guy seems like he has one of those "addictive" don't know when to quit personalities, and if it was not gear he was bitching about it probably would have been something else like gambling or ect...The idea of having and keeping a great physique is addictive in the sense that it is appealing, but only in preference to how one like his hair styled, or skin tanned. Matter of preference. Most people have no problems controlling that. Then you get these people with severe emotional problems and insecurity issues and would be a time bomb with anything. Steroids happened to be this guy's scapegoat. This is just overexaggerated now because this "was on drugs" bullshit and politics. The media llloooovvveeessss to bash steroids right now. This sucks, ... but you could tell somebody the sky is blue until you are yellow, and regardless if you know better and they want to believe it is red,....you are just wasting your time. People just don't want to hear steroids are not that bad for you at all, and can help right now. Unless there are doctors and a lot of high profiled people to come out, it looks like we are just going to have to eat it and continue to stay safe with hiding our own gear use since these ridiculous laws that make us criminals for using. Just try to ignore most of these morons.
My opinion,
