without making stupid broad brush assumptions about CB posters. He was wrong to do that. It may describe some on CB, but it's not accurate to broad brush everybody that way.

Actually more diverse than you'd think.

I bet they don't make up more than 15%.

Even 15% should surprise you.

Looks like your brother should go train with JP. That cougar is looking lean.

This is suggesting he roids...I really don't think he does. He's a gym rat

Sort of agree but it's his business. It's similar to someone responding to a negative yelp review. He probably should

It's nothing like a negative Yelp review. It's one post on a fast-moving message

SandYFan

Someone was researching his business. The original post. Others see it and may consider it when

The Dude Abides

I think he was fine to do it on Instagram but maybe without being condescending

That's fine, but he's worked up. That's not healthy in the long run.

He made one Instagram post..let's not blow this out of proportion.

Well, if Jordan wanted to fight the stereotype of a 'roid raging linebacker-turned-trainer, mission accomplished.

It's publicity. A lot of eyes see what's posted on CB.

Machiavelli

As the author of the original post that led to this, I will say that I don't mind Jordan's reaction.
