I'm sure he's right that anti-aging drugs are gonna be huge in the next 50 years, but I don't think people are going to connect them mentally with steroids.

People just seem to enjoy bashing him on principle.Gambrinushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11797260679201507778noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5730822.post-73100131981129294612009-07-27T05:13:49.274-07:002009-07-27T05:13:49.274-07:00I miss FJM =(I miss FJM =(CaKeYhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09468864363827558756noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5730822.post-69489480588481454502009-07-27T04:59:26.373-07:002009-07-27T04:59:26.373-07:00Bill Madden - he's the retired football coach,...Bill Madden - he's the retired football coach, right?<br /><br />I second mattymatty's comment - another great post, Redsock!FenFanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02348863925130603048noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5730822.post-70063142068493355142009-07-27T04:46:26.940-07:002009-07-27T04:46:26.940-07:00Do you ever wonder if Madden is just baiting us?
