What I find funny about this whole thing is that Lee is Mr. "I do what I want," "stand on my own" blah, blah blah...if so why the f**k bitch about all this? Who cares if you got canned by fax? Would it make you feel warm and fuzzy if Steve had taken you to a restaurant and bought you dinner? Then broke up with you properly? Get over yourself. You like being a "rebel" and corporate America treated you as such.
What some of you people don't understand is that Lee Priest has always been all about him. Anyone can tell you that. He has not respect for anyone or anything in this world. Yes, he is a great bodybuilder, but how far can that take someone. You are not going to have a muscular body for ever and for him to continually disrespect his employer and girlfriends is not a good thing. Lee should tell us the story about him and his Chiropractor's wife.
what the f**k are you talking about....he didn't "bitch" about it at all. Whats funny is everyone cares SO FUCKIN much about little issues like this. MD isn't the only MAG just like Lee Priest isn't the only bodybuilder. MD will be fine. Lee Priest will be fine. everyone can whipe off their vaginas and get on with life.
Fine...what the hell is he going to do, throw new papers? He is done. No other mag in the business will touch him and as for the PDI well I hope he has enought money to fly abroad a couple of times a year. The Rebel got his ass handed too him...game over!
I highly doubt that.
Okay...so what mag we he work for?
As long as Lee remains in the industry, there will always be somebody who wants him – in some capacity – for some amount of $$.
I would agree if Lee hadn't NUKED many bridges after crossing them. You know what the say, "remember those you passed on the way up as you will see them on the way down." Lee doesn't give a F*ck about anybody but himself.
Amen. His career has reached maximum long time ago, so I think it was a good call to replace Lee with some fresh face. And the fact that he was acting like a moron simply made the decision easier. Just my 0.02
I don't know about that. If his carreer is bodybuilding and he reached his all time best physique recently how then has it reached it's peak? Unfortunately it seems people are seperating themselves from him because of the PDI decision. Even though I don't buy BB mags, I won't even open a MD up because they support Valantino. Young kids or naive BB's will see this morons pix and think they need to take drugs to get big arms, then they'll see him on Tyra Banks and see her actually touching his arm as if it's muscle and they will use that to gauge their own success. If the guy simply said he is a circus clown and put stuff into the arm and shoulders to look like that and it's NOT muscle and do not do what he did then I would have no problem with the guy. Just curious, how does MD justify his column in the magazine? What in the world does he have to do with bodybuilding? I actually saw that there are kids that ask his advice.....what is this world and bodybuilding coming to? If it were 20 years ago he would be laughed out of every gym intown. I know people that know him and they say he's a great guy...that's too bad that he just doesn't use his mistakes to prevent others from doing the same thing. The TLC show came off as if he was just another bodybuilder and that's too bad. MD has successful bodybuilders in their mag with tons of knowledge like Dave, but I would never recommened the mag to any young kids because of Valantino.
The sad part is that there are a lot of retards who buy MD just because of Valvalino.
That is really too bad...especially since there are so many freak magazines out there to read if that's what ones into.
I agree, but listen in on conversations at some meathead gyms and if anything articlewise is brought up, at least half the time it's something to do with that retard, Valentino. Sad really.
Just curious, how does MD justify his column in the magazine?
magazines are getting more shitty by the minute
does anyone know steve? is he cool
I'd guess before he decided to do this PDI thing he asked Blechman if he'd back him, and if his contracts at MD and Twinlabs were safe, and he got the go-ahead.
This wouldn't even be a story if it were just a personal spat between Lee and Blechman, but what makes it interesting is the appearance that Blechman caved in to the IFBB, and Weider/Pecker have effectively shut Lee and the PDI down.
shouldn't you be selling fake gh to billy gunns?
