So I've been reading some articles at tbag lately, and there are definitely some quality guys writing over there. However, I've noticed that every single article is now laced with @fit photos. Like even the fucking latest boyle article. I don't understand this.

Also for the first time today I checked out the forums... what's w/ all the underwear pictures? it's like a ghey dating site or something?

Dan John just said over at Draper's forum that they won't publish him now.

When you write for them,. you have no control over editing, title or photos. You can add video or your own photos,.. but they like those giant photos to sell.
They've been nothing but nice to me,...so no complaints. I had an article in the batters circle for 2 months,.. TC emailed and apologized for letting it fall through the cracks. So far so good. I'll be penning one tomorrow or Tuesday to send in.
Really, not too many paying gigs on the internet. I think Wannabe Big pays. Men's Health never returns emails,..etc.

Dan John is one of the few reasons to check T nation.

Been warning Dan for a long time. Sometimes you are the hula hoop, next thing you own a warehouse full of hula hoops you can't give away.
Though Dan does write for Men's Health.
I'm just thinking that common sense articles don't have the juice to excite the 16 year old body builders reading some sites.

T-Nation is sometimes hit but mostly miss. My favorite most recent abomination was the "sandbag guru" suggesting whose article was titled "The deadlift, who needs it?" Yeah, I wonder why a guy peddling $200 duffle bags would feel threatened by the fundamental barbell lift.

I've been noticing that T-nation is like Men's Health minor leagues. You want to see who they'll be quoting in MH in 6 months, read T-nation now.

Dan needs to get a bunch of tattoos and start listening to really bad "music".
