I was reading the latest Muscular Development magazine and there was an article in there about why NBC cancelled the showing of the 2014 Mr. Olympia contest. The author said that NBC executives viewed it before putting it on the TV. They were surprised at the size and definition of the competitors and believed this was from anabolic steroid use. And because anabolic steroids have such a negative image in the minds of the general public, they did not want NBC to be associated with showing a sport that has widespread anabolic steroid use. So at the last minute they cancelled it.
It dosen't look like competitive bodybuilding is going to be a mainstream sport unless there is some kind of drug testing for the competitors.
