Uh Oh: Brock Lesnar Says Being “Built Like A Black Man”, Not Steroids, Is The Reason For His Physique
By
Yeah, this isn’t going to end well.
Brock Lesnar, the current Ultimate Fighting heavyweight champion, in an interview with fightline.com, stuck his well-muscled, God-given, steroid-free foot in his mouth when he claimed that genetics, not steroids, are the reason for his gargantuan size and musculature:
“I got the genetics of–not to get into racism or anything–but I’m built like a black man. Would you say so?”
Hoo boy.
Um, I guess whatever you say, Brock. Either way, Jimmy “The Greek” Snyder wholeheartedly approves of Brock’s message and would like to subscribe to Brock’s psychotic newsletter. Well, if he weren’t dead – only the batshit crazy die young, I guess.
Michael Irvin, however, may have some ideas that would support Lesnar’s theory.
One more thing, Lesnar, obviously realizing there was no turning back, thought it would be a good idea to take a shot at President Obama while discussing his irresponsibility with money when he first came into some:
“When you get money and you’ve never had it before, maybe you want to show it off,” Lesnar stated. “I acted foolishly.” He noted that he owned four homes, a private plane, two Hummers, and a Mercedes. When asked if he had put money away and if he could retire today, he replied, “That’s private. But if Obama keeps spending our money like this, I’ll have to fight till I’m 50.
Wow. That’s a whole lot of crazy going on there. Just not steroid-related, remember. Yikes.

I guess Barry Bonds should have just said I’m built like a black man. Is this Racist ?? What if he got caught stealing . Would he blame it on a black man. Who cares if he’s on the juice. It provides a much better show to watch. Same as all sports. If we could just get everyone on the juice than it would’nt be cheating. If you open your eyes I’m sure you can find some sort of issue with everything. I have a question. What is the pure definition of “PERFORMANCE ENHANCING DRUG”
Should we be upset that the music industry uses performance drugs all the time. How many Artist have written songs on Drugs. These may not be Steroids but the artist says he/she is more creative on these drugs. Does this make it “Performance Enhancing” they wrote a better song because of the drugs. Lets put a Astrix beside The Beatles yellow Submarine Album. The Doors had a Movie made about them using Drugs and writing songs on these drugs. Would Jim have been the same Artist if he Didn’t use Performance Drugs. I think not. Did these artists cheat the people who had a #2 and down song on the charts. If they didn’t use the drugs would they have even made the charts. I’m pretty sure these are performance enhancers. Is the Real Problem the illegal nature of these products, or do we just need something to distract us from our own Inadequacies and problems. Ask yourself if
the doors and many many others should be removed from the Hall of Fame due to their Drug use.

In all fairness he did NOT say “I hate black people”.
There is a difference between assuming a stereotype, when its not an insult, and hate speech.
In Brock’s case, he’s from rural Minnesota, not a lot of black people around, and then he went to school and spent most of his time with the athletic program.
So, just about any black person he has encountered was an athlete. Likely he had hardly ever dealt with anyone black before, but had seen plenty of out of shape white people, being that was the demographic he grew up around.
Humans all think by observing patterns, and in Brock’s case that was the pattern that he saw.
He did NOT say he hates black people.

You spend more time covering your tracks for your Lesnar obsession than he does discussing Mir at all.
