yeah the gear use is out of hand, but its also where the money (although small), and fans are.

not many fans ESPECIALLY outside the internet, and not much money.
strength sports will always be an underground thing. i don't know why people think they won't be in the long run.
Honestly, i think it's an ego thing. I mean, what's more fun, saying you squatted 1000 or saying you squat 500-600 raw? Not to say we don't have this in strongman. I mean the whole thing is kinda an ego booster... like telling someone you pulled a semi, or lifted a car.
