Ross Tucker interview of Michael Hoecht

[Commish]

Short version: he spent a lot of time in the Toronto area growing up, has tons of family there, and is really psyched to play for the Bills.

I still can't believe we gave a decent contract to a guy who we know just got popped for juicing

lol real hard hitting softball session there.  Tucker asks him a single question about the PEDs:  why did you tell the Bills ahead of the signing....,when you didn't have to?

 

As they all do the kid immediately goes on to blame "someone else" for his positive test (multiple times).  Tucker just nods and smiles like a simp.  

 

Speaking of which, Ross looks to clock in at about 165lbs sitting there after he got off the juice...

Yeah, it’s crazy how many supplements are tainted by so many companies, how many millions of dollars that costs athletes and how there are never any lawsuits against the manufacturers of those supplements.

Seems like a good dude, hopefully he makes Beane look smart.

I used to listen to his podcast a lot years ago, haven't listened for a long time. He used to talk about trying to lose weight and also taking meds to keep his hair from falling out.

If you think that the majority of NFL players AREN't juicing then I have a bridge to sell you. It's pretty prevalent, just like it's pretty dang prevalent in the fitness community, wrestlers, actors, etc. Like we're all pretty blazé about it but it's still a federal crime to admit to doing it so no one's going to do so willingly.

Based on what evidence? People say this all the time but just say "trust me, bro". It isn't the 80s and 90s anymore. These guys get busted and suspended today for a huge list of random substances.

Ross Tucker always sounds drunk to me. 

[mushypeaches]

I like Ross Tucker, but you could play a very short-lasting drinking game centered around his complete over-reliance on the word "really"

I was visiting my parents not long ago and went to a planet fitness as a guest of my dad. I walked in there, and saw a bunch of guys in at least their mid-60’s who were absolutely shredded, veins popping, etc.  It never occurred to me until then that this might not be natural.

Everyone here says we can't win with just a bunch of choir boys.

[eball]

Former players interviewing current players is almost always a snoozefest.  I think McAfee does about the best job of it these days.

I played pickup pickleball last night with a totally random guy who jumped in and completely schooled me & my friends. I made a passing joke like "I'm getting old" at the end (I'm 41) and he went on a rant about how he just turned 60 and me and my friends all need to get on testosterone supplements, he started when he was 45 and wished he'd done it sooner. Like he would not let it go, he was adamant that we do it. Honestly it was a great advertisement for it, the guy was absolutely shredded and looked as young or younger than me. It was pretty eye opening not gonna lie.

Both of our boys participated in the state of Florida high school weightlifting tournament. Some of these guys were absolutely comical! They literally made me chuckle a few times. There is no way in hell to get like that without cheating. They almost looked like a different species.

Him and Bulldog both do.
 

It’s like they’re holding up a beer bottle checking to see if they need another as they speak.

This was MANY years ago when I was in college. A friend, who was absolutely jacked, told me how he used to power lift, then tried body building. He went to his first BB competition and saw a bunch of the competitors juicing in the locker room. He wasn’t going to do that so he gave it up.

I remember in high school trying desperately to gain weight for baseball.  I worked my tail off.  I just could not gained weight.  I was way too  active.  
 

I went to my doctor because my parents made me, to see which weight gain supplement and creatine he would recommend to help me add weight with my lifting routine.  He was a younger doctor and a former college athlete, he looked right at me and said never put that stuff in your body, ever especially the creatine.  That was that.  
 

he really didn’t appreciate my joke about buying the one called the Russian bear at GNC which was 4000 calories per shake.  That was a real product.

 

anyway, multiple high school friends took both and made huge gains.  Meanwhile my 5”10 skinny azz worked like a dog to get to 160 pounds.

 

that was a 90’s thing and the current thing is testosterone products.  Anything that advertises like four times on an hour on sports radio stations should be avoided at all costs.

 

anyway,  hoecht is just a guy and he is going to have a hard time living down the ped thing without an abnormally high productive season.
