...someone mentioned on the Melvin Anthony thread that he does not want to jeopadize his health for a "worthless trophy"...

Robby Robinson, when I was working with him about 8-9 years ago...GAVE me his Master's Olympia medal.

Just like 'that'.

So yes...these guys think little of the trophies they train for....I dunno if I blame them, either

If you are bored by them, why look at 'em?

I won a total of 17 trophies....the one I hold dearest is the first I annexed....many I won in the 80's are beautifully crafted, hand-carved....when I won the CT in 95, I picked up the trophy by the bb's head at the top...and it snapped right off on stage in front of the whole crowd....

They're only worthless *after* you turn pro.

There are thousands of amateurs who'd kill for those trinkets.

Very good point.

I trained at Zane's house a few years ago...and he had his Universe trophy right over the doorway...the same one he won when he beat Arnold in 1968...it was cool to see it right there in front of me after reading the stories of his and Arnold's exploits...

No dude...I am 44...started competing at 16...last competed when I turned 40 a few years ago...

Actually...it WAS funny...since I won that show when I was 31...I already had years under my belt and saw the humor in it.

I actually have this happening on video and always laugh out loud when I see it....the crowd was actually pissed when it broke...I just looked at it like I had gotten TWO trophies!

I presented Mike Katz with a lifetime achievement award made out of crystal...gorgeous award...and he dropped it (my fault due to poor hand-off) and it broke into two pieces onstage....but we fixed it!

You are perhaps bored due to an undeveloped mind...please become more diverse.

You can go to a library and get into the minds of geniuses like Shakespeare and others...you can grow, my firend.

I know you are bored.
