The hell is going on in this thread.
Anyway, I never knew about him until he died, but he seemed like a positive guy who loved inspiring other people. I have a soft spot for the proverbial rags-to-riches success stories that are achieved through that kind of motivation.
To those of you who are bad-mouthing and talking **** about a dead young man, your insecurities are not only pathetic, but blatantly obvious. Stop being jealous of the man; he's dead, you're still alive, why in the world do you even feel the need to insult him? Do you seriously feel that inferior? I recognize that Zyzz had a more fit body than I will ever have and probably enjoyed a pretty fast lifestyle that I would know nothing about, but it doesn't bother me or make me feel inferior, and even if I thought Zyzz was obnoxious it wouldn't bring me to insult him after the fact. All I see is a man that has achieved success and help bring inspiration to thousands of people, and I celebrate his success because he earned it. That's great. Honestly, some of you guys should look into working on your own self esteem instead of slandering a man who died in the prime of his youth.
So what if the allegations behind his steroid use are true? To me that doesn't matter - yes, it's horrible and tragic that it may have cost him his life at such a young age - but if he did use he most likely already paid the price for his usage with his life. There's no use slinging **** at him about it now, stop acting so holier than thou about it. What matters now is his legacy and the impact he's had during his time here. And from what I've gathered it's nothing to gawk at. His own personal flaws don't diminish the positive impact he's had on thousands of people - especially those who needed it most - during his short life. I'd wager that's much more than some of you will ever accomplish in your own lifetime, and you'll probably live three to four times as long as he did. Come to think of it, if I was in some of your guys' positions, I'd probably be jealous and bitter too.
