This. 
Next year his departing gift will be third at the AC and 5th at the O. 

Then he'll get a few years of departing gift victories at the AC and a couple runner up spots at the O before they give him his going away victories at both

You act as if he had a few years left to live if he keeps his drug protocol on schedule.

Lol.

Hes right though, he'll get "departing" gifts as long as he shows up, obviously he's not getting the hint.  :D

I think Branch is getting the hint. He looked really pissed.

I'm not acting fuckface. 

The only acting I do is staying calm when I put on a belt instead of thinking about the fact that I'm using the belt to hold up my pants...but my pants have belt loops to hold up my belt.  Otherwise I'm true to my emotions

Time to retire.  He should have left his trunks on stage and walked off, like a weightlifter leaving his shoes on the platform.

Looks a lot better than some of his other showings... Dude is ripped, no doubt. He just doesn't carry the combo of size and conditioning to really compete anymore.... Guess that happens when you're a manlet.

What an atrocious physique. All the conditioning in the world will not matter when you have zero aesthetics.

I imagine he's a pretty good guy to hang out with.  Unfortunately, his body appears seriously scarred from drug and/or training abuse.  What he may need is a rest from competition.  He's a successful businessman, correct?  Why not take a year or so off and actually get off the stuff.    All the stuff these guys inject and ingest can't be good for them.  Rest.  It might actually do him so real good and allow him to come back in better shape.

Its a sad state of affairs when the only competitor that has what would be acceptable conditioning in the 90s is branch.

Absolutely not. He takes time off and he is finished. I mean more finished than now. 3 months off and it would take a year to come back to 70% percent of this. Too old for that strategy. He is just holding on as best he can now.

I just don't get the "shredded" comments about him, he certainly doesn't have a crisp hardness to his physique.
Always looks watery to me.

I agree.  Always looks like fatty burnt bacon to me.  He looked great when he turned Pro...... Water under the bridge.

Fixed

He has the same look as Gaspari when he started to drop in placings at the Olympia.

Thread over. Amazing you could actually destroy your god given structure to such a degree. We say all these guys look unhealthy but his face really looks bad. Youngblood had that death face at the end

Branch Guaranteed his Baby Daughter that he would one day win her a MR OLYMPIA trophy

Slight expression of disappointment by Branch onstage last night when he didnt get the call out for top 5

So much chemicals and risks, and then 6th place and after taxes and roid/gh etc costs no money. How smart is that?
