All my life i was a Rocky fan, and more of a stallone fan. The spirit of rocky balboa of never giving up and working out hard to carve your path out of extreme difficult situations always kept me going. It had taught me that circumstances can never get heavy on you to the extent you can get heavy on them. Recently when i read about stallone being found with testesteroine vials and other restricted substances in australia which enhance your body, i got totally freaked out. if syl doesn't has this spirit which he potrayed himself as in rocky and he needs to take supplements to make up for looks then who the hell are we runin after. don't i have a reason to tear his poster of my wall. Do any of you out there also feel the same as i do?.

Another "Hero" bites the dust... I say that if you are smart, you won't have to use that stuff to have a great body at any age... so sad. In this town we even have a statue erected for "Rocky", but I never liked it for some reason, maybe this is why.

well, i think it's only fair to say that we should really separate the actor from the character. sylvester stallone may have done a stupid thing in using human growth hormones (man, the guy's 60, what'd you expect) but i don't think that should in any way tarnish the image of rocky balboa. rocky balboa will always be the south paw street fighter from the streets of philadelphia - he was given that 1 in a million shot ... let's remember him like that! "rocky, rocky, rocky, rocky" - the crowd at the philadelphia spectrum. "eye of the tiger man..." - apollo creed!
