Back in the days with ‘The Rock’ … and Steroids
Friday, March 27th, 2009
Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson recently talked with MTV New – in a cab – and admitted on experimenting with performance-enhancing
drugs back in his school years. ” I tried it. Me and my buddies tried it back then in the day when I was 18 or 19. didn’t
know what we were doing.” The former World Wrestling Federation superstar now turned actor commented. This would mean
that he experiemnted while playing the defensive lineman for the University of Miami Hurricanes during his football playing
years. Johnson lamented that back then, steroid use was very attractive for many and a wide range of athletes used them.
“I also believe in education,” he said. “It’s a bad example that you set for kids, and at the same time it’s a good
example for kids to follow, not in terms of the use, but in terms of the repercussions of what can happen because
there is no replacement for hard work.” Do you think its hard work that got ‘The Rock’ this far or steroids? Let us know.
