("The new generation fabric has ruined the sport."
Now this is over the top melodrama. Talk about plain silly. If you're raw what do you care anyhow if eveyrone else is having a good time in their Furys and Rages.)
Don't try to pretend that the new generation shirts are needed for protection - the old shirts did that. You just want to be able to lift more weight without being strong enough. And don't give me, "well, I've never seen a shirt lift by itself", as you toss a shirt onto a bench. If you can't get the bar off your chest, YOU can't lift the weight. The shirts get it off your chest for you.
You want to have a good time? Fine. just don't kid yourself into thinking you're really that strong.
