Unfortunately, out of Nebraska and its six border states, five of them are in the bottom two lists of the last quote.

And when you expand to the 500 mile radius you get six more states on those last two lists.

Kansas, Missouri and Illinois are the only three 500 mile radius states not in one of those last two lists.

 
We need to replace the fluoride in the drinking water with HGH, 500mg of Sustanon, and 30mg of D'bol (Dianabol). Then we will have the athletes we crave!
