Dear Mr. Davidson,
First off I would like to tell you that you, sir, are an *******. You are a third rate fiction writer at best and not even suited for the prestigious racks of your local international airport bookstore. These comments are sparked by your scathingly pretentious article on your steroid adventures. Not only did you show an utter lack of knowledge about bodybuilding in general you showed even less about steroids themselves. You also are apparently illiterate because there are more like 30g of protein in a can of tuna. Please stick to lying about topics that you can demonstrate at least a cursory understanding of, even better please stop writing altogether.
-EM
That's a great email, Eric. First off, though, don't bother start with
"Dear Mr. Davidson" when in your next sentence you call your subject
an *******. For brevity's sake, just start: Dear *******. Even a third
rate fiction writer knows that much. KISS. I took a set pack of
steroids, sold with PCT products, according to the instructions I was
given. I took them, so I'm not sure where I was lying. That much is
obvious. What happened to me is what happened. But suffice it to say
more than one person has taken exception to it and you are now amongst
their number; many of these people also have photos of themselves,
taken shirtless in front of their bathroom mirrors. I don't know
really why it matters unless perhaps you were considering spearheading
a legalization movement. Still, thanks for your letter and it's always
great for third (or fourth?) rate writers such as me to know we've
been read. All best, Craig.
You and I both know that the side effects you cried about never happened and this entire "article" was a ploy to publicize your new "book." Its people like you that contribute to the ignorance about steroid USE. If you knew anything and ran a proper pct you would not have lost your gains in that short period of time. So, again, stick to topics that you can convincingly lie about.
Hey brother,
I had a buddy of mine wrote an article where he wrote about meth
abuse. He had a bunch of tweakers write him missives beginning "You,
sir, are an *******" or the like. "You misunderstand and misrepresent
us." etcetera. Me writing an article won't stop roiders roiding. Are
you selling roids? I don't care what you do. Go get huge on roids.
Really, I can't stop you or anyone, and wouldn't care to. I got my own
**** to deal with. I did what most freshmen steroid users did; the
package came all together, with the substances listed in the article,
and I did as it said to do. That was my experience. I don't give a
**** you believe me or not. The article was fact-checked. The book
came out over a year ago. I did it because I wanted to see what it was
like. It's anecdotal---by which I mean, that's what happened to me.
I've seen people's bodies react much better. I got stronger,
ceratainly, so on that level they did what they should. People have
written to me in the tone you have. Many more have written positively.
So, there you go. Opinions vary. If I've somehow taken bread out of
your mouth or impugned steroids---which had a great rep to begin
with---I'm ... well, I'm not sorry. You can keep writing back, but
sooner or later this will be interesting enough to post on my blog.
All best, Craig.
Listen James Frey,
Comparing meth and steroids is exactly the problem with people like you.
and for the record im in the Army and bodybuild naturally. . . and i warm up with those 85s you find so difficult to push.
that is all.
You're a tough man. You definitely have shirtless pics of yourself
somewhere. I make my money with my head. A guy who lifts 85lb
dumbbells collects my trash.
and im a poli sci major who makes money defending my country. . . your point seems to be moot james.
Okay, Eric, let's stop now before we say things we cannot take back. A
pleasure chatting with you. Seriously. Always good to hear the other
side of things. And I wish I had James Frey's money. From a writer's
standpoint, it's amazing how little that whole thing hurt him. His
next book sold for 2 mil! A liar. Well, what can you do? Liar or not,
he's a pretty decent writer in my opinion. Alright, Eric, this has
been fun. Your first email was pretty harsh, but fair enough, that's
how you feel. This third rate writer cannot spend any more time on
this when this earns me nothing and we won't change each others'
minds. I got to try to sell a few more lies to keep a roof over his
head. Or else live in a dumpster. It could happen. You aired your
gripes, I mine. So. We move on. All best, Craig.

i was bored this is the last thing i sent him i doubt hell respond . . .
I hate it when someone decides to be the bigger man before me. Anyway if you're not gaining its because you're not eating which is the probably the reason you had made much progress pre-cycle gotta eat big to grow big.
This was fun.

So what exactly was your problem with Craig Davidson's article, anyway?
His responses were about what I would have expected from a professional writer, though...even if he was probably more polite than the situation warranted...Ongoing Journal: http://forum.bodybuilding.com/showthread.php?t=106420991

I dont know, I think it was kind of harsh to attack him like that. You have to understand that he approached the topic like most individuals with no experience with steroids would. Lets face it, there are ALOT of people out there who will try steroids without understanding a single thing about how they work or the precautions that are necessary. When you consider it in that light, you will see that his article is actually quite valuable in that it may make one or two people take pause and reconsider jumping right into steroid use.

Ha ha ha! Oh gosh that's funny! That's really funny! Do you write your own material? Do you? Because that is so fresh. You are all a bunch of nuts. You know, I've never heard anyone make that joke before. Hmm. You're the first. I've never heard anyone say that before. You've taken the buckeye and used it out of context to insult me in this everyday situation. God what a clever, smart boy you must be, to come up with a joke like that all by yourself. That's so fresh too. God you're so funny.
