Mr. O 2007 on ESPN??
« on: May 27, 2007, 11:20:16 PM »

What does the AMI have to do to get the Mr. Olympia on ESPN??  If they can do it.  It will be a great start for bodybuilding on TV.

So what does Chang & McGough have to do to make it happen??

Then we need to find a way to combine bodybuilding and bowling with midgets.

From when I can recall, the last time Mr. Olympia was broadcast on ESPN was back in 1991 for Lee Haney's final victory.

Ironic that not only was that the end of us seeing a Mr. Olympia with a pleasing physique, but the end of a broadcast.

Actually the best ESPN showing of the Olympia was for the 1995 Olympia, it was two hours long and showed every posing routine, line up, some of pre judging and the whole award ceremony.  They also showed the special line up of ALL mr olympias onstage, with joe weider.  Joe Amato and Frank Zane were the announcers....it was great!

Also they showed the 97 olympia too...but it was only an hour long, they only showed part of the top six posing routines and it played like at 2am.

Maybe if you gave the audience "darts" then they can throw them at the competitors.  ESPN loves darts

Interestingly enough, that's the same year steroids were criminalized.

Coincidence?

ESPN would get more views showing the National Spelling B.  Why would they show the olympia in a time slot that could better be used for baseball or some other popular sport.

the sport will never grow until it gets out of this little cocoon its been in for years. it needs new fans. becoming more mainstream instead of being freak sport with a cult following.
