    When that story first broke I said to myself, "HGH."

    For crying out loud, the guy is short. Maybe he needs HGH.

    By the time he is 70, he could be, oh, maybe 5 foot five or six.

    However his official website features a 1991 interview in which he is
    quoted as saying that the use of steroids could produce "a cumbersome,
    ape-like goon".

    Did he indicate whether he thought that a BAD thing?

    And yet in the The Lord's of Flatbush he proved to be a great actor. And to
    add to that he was also one of the screenwriters for that movie.

    It sure seems to peeve you guys when someone is so much smarter, richer and
    more successful than you are.

    Seen any movies in this century? He was much better in Cop Land.

    It's nice to know you hold your assumed projections to be of higher
    quality than those of other people. Not that there's anything wrong
    with that.

    But he was not a calg to begin with. His first, or one of his first,
    screen appearances is in Bananas, where he is a lip jutting little puke
    whose face needs slapping.

    Yet you don't see me telling everyone how someone I don't know is doping. Or
    that some old guy that wants to take hGH has something wrong with him - is
    it illegal for Stallone to take hGH?

    I pass judgement on your own postings, not on what I think that someone
    might have said to some reporter who reported it the way he wanted to depict
    it.

    And yet the bozos who never raced and hardly ride will post here about
    racing until their dying days. I even met one of you - a little weazel about
    5'4" tall with a bike with a rack on it front and rear, components that were
    second rate in 1988 and the inability to understand plain English until a
    shop owner asked him to leave and never return.

    Nice one Tom. Can we have your list of people we can and cannot belittle
    just so we don't tread on your toes.

    Oh, that changes by the minute, Phil. Depending on who *he's* running
    down. Oh, can you even begin to figure out what the hell that last graf of
    his means? Bizarre stuff.

    I was just thinking of that appearance. Even as a
    little puke, he's still bigger than Woody Allen, although
    Woody briefly gets the better of him in that scene.

    I was figuring on running a picture of you Kveck - should I include how many
    miles you rode last year?

    Why would you need something like that Phil? You generally aren't one to run
    people down in order to make yourself feel superior.

    Ahhh, now we understand. It's all about BIG Tom and the flotilla of
    bicycles that're in his garage and don't you forget it! Because having a
    lot of bikes and claiming to ride a lot of miles makes you a BIGGER man,
    if you know what I mean. It also makes you right in any discussion. Huh,
    seems like you were saying just a few days ago that "Speed and distance
    aren't important."

    I for one clearly remember being lectured by you on the impossibility of
    winning 5 TdF w/o being on the juice. Of course at the time (1996 or
    1997) we were arguing about Miguel Indurain. Of course once LA started
    winning the Tour you switched to the "drugs have no effect on
    performance" line.

    Actually no - it's about SMALL Kveck and how he has a need to belittle
    others in order to make himself feel valuable.

    If you ain't got your own, you ain't got nothing.

    Unless you want me saying that you have a faulty memory perhaps you ought to
    cite the postings in which you think I said that.

    Tom, I thought that you promised not to memtion that in public. Besides I
    am
    5'-5" tall

    Charles, you have a sense of humor, something that the gang-posters here
    don't. Being short in stature isn't the same as being short on character.
