Yeah I haven’t even watched the first episode but I was sure it was going to be boring. I’ve always loved TUF but last season was just constant sob stories and fighters crying about their families with very little insight into the fighters training, strategizing about opponents and the team interactions in the house. Those three things and the fights is all I care about. I don’t need to hear 20-25 minutes of fighters crying about missing their wife, gf, kids, etc with footage of them at home with their families. It’s not interesting at all.

@@williamRE Never commented whether he was or not. I would however bet top dollar that he did not take enormous doses of HGH on a continuous basis. Quite possible that he dabbled in PEDs. If anything though, it's more likely he would have used HGH secretagogues like 'MK-677' and 'Ipamorelin/cjc1295'. Great for recovery, all the while really reducing the exogenous HGH side effects. Most athletic young guys already have good Test levels, what you really want is something to help accelerate recovery. Anabolic PEDs come with too many downsides.
Din's impression of Steve A' was on point. Close your eyes and listen again, it was too good.
