SamStall365247 163 Report post Posted March 24, 2019 Did anyone else notice Cassar flash his lip tattoo after getting his hand raised and then after his interview? I rewatched it and paused the TV. When I finally got a good look at it I could see that it said “PED Life.” Can’t believe he flashed it! 2 simple and Dr. Novak reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LOL I have 0 evidence Cassar does and I absolutely am not claiming that, but I promise you plenty of wrestlers take steroids. I know plenty that did after going into MMA (personally, I worked in the MMA industry for awhile).There is little doubt that for many of them this started in college or before. Even in high school it happens. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ThorsteinV 83 Report post Posted March 24, 2019 Both of those guys put on tremendous muscle mass over the last few years. It does make you wonder how prevalent it is in wrestling? I know it's quite common in college football and it goes widely undetected. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
headshuck 2,626 Report post Posted March 24, 2019 I thought they said during the broadcast that he gained 50 pounds over some period of time? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So a guy who had to cut weight to make 97, ate 7000 calories/day since the conclusion of the 2018 season and routinely weighed in at ~230 for the 2019 season gained 50 lbs? LOL Math does not add up. Some of those wrestling announcers may be in some HOF. But that does not mean they do not suffer from diarrhea of the mouth. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guy was a bank safe good question he was listed as a rsjr 197 on 2018 roster but might already have been bulking up... but i just went to track and every match he wrestled last year was at 285 the year before he wrestled at 197, except the last two matches of his season Edited March 24, 2019 by GockeS Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

1032004 1,514 Report post Posted March 24, 2019 You got a screenshot OP? I just tried to do the same but my tv must not be good enough because I couldn’t make it out. Even if he did do PED’s which I kinda doubt why in the world would he get a tattoo that says so and even worse show it on national tv? Makes no sense.

Not sure how often. There were a couple of different scenarios during the event. I believe initially (for me I started in 1987) they did the placewinners and a couple of randomly selected individuals. They cut way back at some point. The way it was described to me as to why was that you can't get blood from a stone. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ThorsteinV 83 Report post Posted March 24, 2019 I honestly don't think the NCAA cares about steroids - not sure I do either. I had a friend/teammate that was juiced out of his mind and subjected to a drug test.. he wore a hooded sweatshirt with a douche bag full of clean urine attached to his arm and passed with flying colors!
