For cripes sake I'm 5'-9" and riding a 52....How much smaller you want me to go??

In other words everyone should be on a custom frame...

Sorry, but your comments are total rubbish...
Actually rbart...I agree with UC more than your fit...lol.
5'9" on a 52 with 100mm stem? Now that is laughable...though I would never say rubbish.
FWIW you are about the same height as the greatest TdF rider of our era and he is on a 58 with 130mm stem.
You need to go back to drawing board. Now here is the good news. There is a fit out there that you are going to love.
