    If they have developed a steroid that gives you ability I want to know where I can get some.

    Difference is the media never buried it under the carpet and pretend it never happened.

    They never if ever bring up Jone's wanton roid abuse. Instead we're lead to believe he was an honest and clean athlete in his prime.

    They don't really bring up anyone's steroid abuse.

    In this thread we have posters with JMM and L. Browne avatars picking holes in RJJ for PED abuse.:lol:Do any G. McClellan fans want to bring up the rooster fighting?

    Lol! At least I included a shot with Roy and one of his beloved roosters in there.

    Again a Toney fan, but,

    Watching Roy was an event, I remember the feeling you were going to see something never seen before. It was a fun stretch there, I wish he would just hang em up, stay on the mic Roy!

    Yeah I love his commentary so I hope he sticks with that. He's finally giving signs of retirement at least.

    Or if someone hit him on the chin. He was still allowed to juice up but suddenly started getting stopped with regularity when he started taking punches.

    To much of an asterix next to his name for him to be considered TBE for me but was great to watch in his prime hugely skilled and athletic.

    Name me one person who hasn't been PED'd to the eyeballs. Be honest about it.

    Its almost always pure speculation Jones is one we have evidence of, to say they ALL are on Peds is a statement I just do not agree with though. Yes Ped cheats are prevalent in all sports but not every sport person is morally redundant.

    Ped cheats in cobat sports is the lowest of the low for me they are playing dice with people's lives i'm sure there are plenty of people in the sport with a similar mindset also.

    Fact is its impossible to name one either way I dont know these guys personally to say one way or the other all any of us have is speculation. There is plenty of evidence against Jones though hence why I said asterix next to his name.

    He stopped when it became illegal I think. So now he just raises them. His knockdown of James Toney was inspired by a game c0ck lol
