Since we have talked so much about Super matches and steroids lately, I thought I would ask this question.
Should we have steroid testing at super matches?
Lets look at the statistics, if approximately 35% of athletes are on them and a $1000 is at risk then why not?
I was suppose to be in the so called hookers ( but no one Hooked funny)supermatch a few months back and backed out.
I backed out mostly because I hadnt been training and my health was up in the air. I just didnt feel good and was seeing Doctors. Although I was called names like chicken crap by the organizer, I think that my health was more important.
Another reason that played into my thinking was I wish they did start in a semi hook like in Vegas but Travis saiid no. sure would have had different type matches had they done that, because seemed like no one really hooked much The other reason is the steroid issue and without accusing anyone because Im not , just looking at the Odds of 6-8 cpmpetitors 2 or 3 are likely on them and when the competition is fairly even this would truly be a disadvantage to those who are not and to there $ 1000 entry.
I would gladly pull one if the above scenario were to take place. One on one Tom Nelson or in a group.

Engin,I would have gone Zloty, only if they had a lefty class,so I could pull people I haven't competed against. I will always run into Travis and most likely Ryan again. I don't know when I can get a chance to pull the Europeans. Hopefully, Japan,..... if I qualify. Maybe if some top European Lefties can give a definite to going to Vegas, then MAYBE I MIGHT go. But until then...NO! BTW: when I saw a masters class, I was thinking of going, until I found there is no money for us old farts!
