"The Rundown" is a Grit original series where light is shed on local sports stories around the United States.
For some people they consider football as an after-school activity, a fun sport to play, or something to watch; however, for others it is a way of life. In this small town, football is the only thing that provides these students with a way out or a sense of meaning. Football is more than just a sport to this town.

If people want to lift tested I have no problem with that. However, the problem with tested meets is they randomly select from the top place finishers on meet day. So you can only truly say they were clean on meet day even if they were on PEDS and cycled off to beet the test. No such thing a a clean meet in my opinion.
Sad advice and poor excuses for using drugs because a person can't cut it on their own gifts and abilities. 👎
I keep reading how a lot of people are saying there's nothing wrong with steroids over and over again. My suggestion to you is go talk to all the dead people who took steroids then formulate your conclusion. If druggies want to be druggies stay in the druggie feds and quit ruining the clean competitions. Number one, if a guy is using steroids and he's competing and there's guys that aren't it's an unfair advantage my friend. There's nothing wrong with using steroids just don't get cut. What a load of horseshit. Why didn't you just say cheating isn't cheating if you don't get caught smart ass.
If she isn't proof that being vegan keeps you young, Idk what is. She looks the same age as him.
RIP Louie! Love looking at these clips of him.
Being open about steroids, doesn't make you a better person. Just make sure that anybody that is natty knows that you are cheating.
Elmhurst/Castlemont days RIP to the 90’s
RIP Louie!
Ed is a real good 💪🏾💪🏾
I’m from Swissvale, just down the road from here, and home of another great Pittsburgh HS team the Woodland Hills Wolverines. Much respect
Thank you Louie.
Many have heard of it
Abusing it is bad plus what happens when you quit
State Champs in 2023 playing up
This video aged well. 3 state championship appearances in a row and won 2/3 in AAAA as a single A team. I grew up poor in Aliquippa and work here until this day. Go Quips.
id love to see quips vs a college team
What’s the song?
This video features some of the worst tattoos I’ve ever seen.
rest in shit louie
Love from the UK 💪🏽 westside 🎉
I met Louie during a coach seminar in 2011. In media he came off as very cold, but in real life was an absolute gentleman, very polite, very friendly. RIP Big Lou
To that young man who just squatted his all time record 1085, it's one of his greatest days, to Louie, it's just another day.
born at night but not last night.
Aliquippa may be poor in sense of monitory value but when it comes to community, family and determination we are as wealthy as you can be. Aliquippa is a special place, if u come here on bullshit, that’s what u will get in return. But if you come here genuine with some respect about urself and the people around you, Aliquippa will welcome you with open arms. Every hood has its good and bad and we are no different. Aliquippa sports is just a way for the kids to have a chance at something better.
Hometown ❤️🖤❤️
Bad advice.
and what is the one drug most intelligent powerlifters, including the late great Louie Simmons, try to avoid?......the mighty, mighty Anadrol-50 aka OXymetholone! the stuff's just way too good at what it does, and that's to make you as strong as a daggone OX! so much so, that your relatively spindly little connective tissues have little chance of ever keeping up! a truly awesome strength and performance enhancing drug!
✔SHOOTING STARS 💯
Bron greates of all having his friend way back he still got nothing til now is just superb just proof what kind of person he is me naaaaaah i cut all those friends i got when i was young 😂😂😂😂😂
👍 Shooting Stars
There is a right and wrong way as with anything. I chose to stay natural, but as long as people are being honest about their use and not lying in tested competitive sports you will get no judgemental attitude from me. Not to mention I might make it to 60 years old and maybe I start feeling like crap and TRT is the solution.
God and Jesus Christ Loves You and Cares For Us.AMEN!!🙏🏾✝️😊
Rest in peace my friend!
Strongest Gym in the World!
man was a legend
REST UP JOE 💔 REST UP VP🕊️
4CH💪💪💪🤑😎🕵️
They should teach power lifting in school
Very sad, pray for this city! 🙏
Legenda Zadra
I love Louie Simmons.
It’s like people don’t realize that he lifted with assistance gear acting as an elastic lmao
This makes me want to go get sauced up
Dad I hope ur ok
Absolutely spot on. The hypocrisy is so apparent it’s insulting.
The thing is, as much as Westside was/is great for geared lifting. It doesn't have a world, strongest man in its ranks, an Arnold classic. They can say they're the strongest but Brian Shaw, Eddie Hall, Thor, Ray Williams, Julius Maddox, Big Z et al. Would beg to differ. That aside, RIP louie.
Powerlifting isn't strongman
Best putback rebounder ever
so all that means that i have to start tren ?
She shouldn't be label Black American we have our own culture as Foundational Black Americans.
He'll of a mother they have.
I don't care what anybody says, if both of your parents came from Africa, and you are born in America, you are a "NATURALIZED CITIZEN" of America, period. When your family happens to go back HOME, that is when they are full citizens! Anyone can SOJOURN to other countries, but that doesn't mean children born in that country are 100% a citizen of that country! Think, think, think people! Even when any one of the parents is a citizen of another country, the blackness and the culture of the blackness takes over as African! An American woman married to a Nigerian man, the children are Africans regardless of what color is the woman! Conversely, An American man married an African woman, still the same as an African. The bloodlines are so strong! I have German-born children, children born of a German woman and father Nigeria, see them, they are almost white! guess what they regarded themselves as, NIGERIANS! So a man born in German has children by an African woman, of course, who do you think would claim? Nigeria! It is fact of life, my sister. Thank you for keeping rooted in your culture!
