We've now got 700+ posts, mostly from folks having a meltdown over the term "Ironman" being applied to events that are not actual Ironmans. Yet several of these same folks are more than happy to label the IronCowboy a "doper" when he has taken no banned substance (that we know of). Isn't irony great.
And thus far, nobody's melting down. Most people who have weighed in have respectfully disagreed with him (or his advertising partners) claiming the Iron- term. The only people melting down are his apparent fans who can't cope with the slightest pushback on his Amazing Feats of Strength, which as far as I've seen, nobody here has denied.
