Also, when former Governor, Arnold barked back at Matt something like "When somebody offers you $25k, you don't ask questions, it doesn't matter where it comes from". Campaign much Governor? (wink, wink)

He said that because what Matt said totally went over his head - when the guy offered the extra $25,000, Matt asked if it was from Universal or from Gringotts, an obvious reference to Harry Potter (Gringotts is the bank run by goblins in the HP universe). He wasn't seriously asking where it was coming from. Arnie just obviously isn't a Potter fan either lol.

Yeah won't tolerate cheating on a game show but cheating on his wife and cheating for his physique by sticking needles up his ass is perfectly acceptable.

Arnold is a pearl clutching hypocrite and a big time cuckservative. Threw shade at Trump for the pussygate nonsense too.

I love the online perception of steroids.

I'm not endorsing them, either. But like..you don't stick the needle in the bum and wake up with muscles. You still..have..to..do...the...work.

Far as his wife goes, what a horrible man. All men who cheat are so terrible. They're awful. Every one of them. Every. Last. One.

At least Arnold took responsibility for the result of his cheating rather than abandoning ship, which likely would've been fairly easy to pull off.

Where did I state otherwise? My whole point was that he was haughty about cheating when he is a lifelong cheater himself.

I pointed out that he cheated, and he wouldn't have had anywhere near that physique if he was natty. I didn't state anywhere that he got his physique solely from steroids. So you're arguing against a straw man. Good job.

But BTW, couch potatoes on AAS gain MORE muscle mass than natty gym rats in a shorter amount of time

Wasn't arguing, just telling you how anabolic steroids work.

Schwarzenegger has always been very up-front and candid about any not-so-kosher things he was doing during his bodybuilding days. It was kinda par for the course at that time, and it hardly means that Arnold can't fire a guy for cutting a computer cord on a reality show over thirty years later.

He didn't play by the rules.

He cut the cord to lengthen the time for them to get their task done.

Even the others felt uneasy. I know Lisa hates Chael, but Carson wasn't happy about it and didn't feel it was right the way Chael handled it, and they have nothing against each other.

Arnold was right.

That whole thing was weird. I can only hope Chael knew the guy putting the brochure together had been saving his work because if they had lost the entire presentation, I hardly think 10 minutes would have made any difference at all. Maybe I'm missing something, but that whole situation was really strange. And the fact that he thought everyone should have treated him like a hero was even more out there. I'm glad Carson spoke up even though it ended up that two members of his team were fired. Just glad it wasn't him.
