how many of you would like to see a SHAWN RAY comeback...

[Shawn Ray]

I'm flattered but I have turned the page on competing.
I have been there and done that.
I enjoyed the ride but I had my fill.
I enjoy other aspects of life I had to put on hold while competing which fills my thirst now.
It's all good, things change, people change, intrests change and the sport does too.
That being said, I have no desire to put on a pair of posing trunks to be judged again, not for the fact that I can't do it but the fact that I am in a better place now with my health, family, business and focus.
I am working on the next 40 years of my life now, the first 40 were awesome!
I'd like the same for the next 40 but in a different capacity.
Thanks,
Shawn

you were one of the five best ever, no doubt about it.

[Rampage]

Hey shawn

I said this before , and ill say it again :

The IFBB should grant You , my man Kevin , brother flex and labrada alllll honarary sandows.I do believe that this will happen someday

How would you feel about accepting something like this ? You may think ` hey but i didnt win , so it kinda waters down the effect`.But you shouldnt think that way, cos you knowww how many times just 1 man stood between you and that medal.Besides , yourlls physiques was THE epitomy of EXCELLENCE.It should feel MORE honourable if you think about it

I hope this comes to pass ..  The WILL realise it and do it

Beleeeee` dat !

[flexingtonsteele]

Hey Shawn any pics of you at the nationals anywhere??? I heard u looked fuckin amazing!

Its funny, my family often thinks of bodybuilding as being a negative sport that produces freaky looking physiques due to excessive drugs and always tell me not to be a bodybuilder (like I actually could  ).  I take a magazine with Shawn Ray on the cover and they are like wow that is a perfect physique but if I left out a magazine with a 295lb Ronnie on the cover they get all disturbed.  My point is that guys like Shawn, Kevin, Flex, Labrada etc. show bodybuilding as a healthy sport and make me proud to share with others my enjoyment of following the sport and training instead of feeling like I am hiding something "negative".  I understand perfectly that a sport that advocates the display of beyond normal levels of muscularity and leanness requires anabolics but everything is okay if used in a controlled and smart manner.

YOUR RETARDED...NEED I SAY MORE

[natural al]

not me.  What would be the point?  he'd get treated like shit by the judges and placed lower than he should plus it would get in the way of his high quality posts on this board

nothing good would come from a shawn ray comeback.

[swilkins1984]

YOUR RETARDED...NEED I SAY MORE

No your reponse was stupid enough no need to make it worse. Let me guess your a Ronnie fan? (nah your username is "Shadow" so I am guessing Dorian Yates)...hmmmm I got it you're just another dumbass troll on the board. Yep exactly...

[danielson]

YOUR RETARDED...NEED I SAY MORE

Steven knows twice as much as you Shadow, stop taking all your pent up frustration about being a virgin(and probably a lifetime virgin ) out on everyone else.
