  My love passion is competitive bodybuilding! (ill never turn Pro) and im fine with that!........you have a balance keeps things in perspective (Do i think Ryan can take it much further than i?.....i do)
so let's see how far he can go.......that's all

Mike, you need to start getting in shape in your contests to be called a competitive bodybuilder. Every show you do, you get last place. No shit you are not going pro. Get off Ryan's nuts. You look like his bitch. Maybe that's what you want.

  i have never finshed lower than 3rd (two times i took second the first place guys went on to become IFBB Pros a week or a few weeks later) but whatever you want to believe.....im not going to argue with you (im a "decent" bodybuilder.....the NPC is filled with "decent" bodybuilders)

  I don't want to argue with you bro.......yes he is giving it his best shot (what he isn't doing is "banking on it" pinning all his hopes on that pro-card) Case in Point my good friend and former gym owner Marty Vranicar .....gave it all he had (if your going to do something do it right) won his Pro-Card at the Masters Nationals in Pittsburgh ( he did it.. he accomplished his goal/a lifelong dream) he will probably never set foot on a pro-stage....and that's ok (that was his dream/we all have them) whether Ryan get's his pro-card or not he realizes what's really/most imporant in life....and that is love/family/relationships/jobs/careers....not a trophy or an IFBB Pro-card (he is not waiting for some lucrative endorsement contract) he and myself are doing what we love.....training to compete (i just need to get "my shit together" as far as employment and a great girl/woman) maybe it's not so healthy competing at the national level....it's his health tho..let him live his life as he wants to ok? Ryan loves bodybuilding as do i...end of story

Im not arguing with you at all Mike.

But a great man once said " ...children just do what they love all day without regard for long term consequence... ADULTS do not... "

Come on Mike placing 2nd when there are only two guys in your class is the same as placing last.  What guys that you competed against are pros now?

So that we're clear Mike, somebody made a comment about your sister (I forget who), and I LOL'd.  I had no idea they were referring to someone that had passed away.  As soon as it was brought to my attention, I myself deleted it.  I apologize.

My thoughts regarding bodybuilding "hatred":

End of the day, it's only serious if you make a crusade out of it... otherwise, it's just internet rumors and mass hysteria....

I've learned early on in life that people who do 180's then try to convince everybody else with endless dialogs of congruence are just doing so to cope with their own failure and inability to accept their current state.

It's often triggered by life events hard to accept; example back in 2002 a friend of mine, both of us fresh out of Standford 2 years before, his company got acquired; he had to make the hard choice of enjoying life/proceed money a little then look for the next gig; or be a pussy, listen to his whinny wife and move back to Montreal.

The choice was easy but he obviously made the wrong one. As he was planning his move with bitch wife, all he would talk about is how Silicon valley sucks, how it is in decline, how much better montreal is.. blah blah blah...

... a year later, I visited him, he was miserable, knowing he past on a LOT, but yet, was still trying to convince himself...

sounds familiar ;)
