Arnold's armies - Letters: talkback

I just finished reading your September issue, and I must say thank you! I have been reading FLEX for a couple of years, and I have honestly never enjoyed an issue as much as this particular one. "In the Picture" was the best article ever. Reading Arnold Schwarzenegger's comments was truly amazing. It was as if I were actually looking into another time through another man's eyes and gazing into a bodybuildinq world that was fun. That was a great time for bodybuilding, and the pictures and comments show that. I know that today's pros have accomplished a lot more in the body development department, but as far as personality and charisma, none can come close to Arnold. From racism to fistfights, today's pros are on a different level, and it's not necessarily a better one. Hopefully, they will read that issue and see what I am talking about and maybe, just maybe, they will learn the one thing Arnold, Dave [Draper], Franco [Columbu] and all of those guys displayed that today's pros do not have--a little bit of class.
