Title: Question for Lee Priest?
Post by: DragonsBreath on October 09, 2006, 07:42:46 PM
Hey Lee, since you have been "suspended" from the IFBB, have you spoken to Jim Manion and are you guys at least on a friendly basis? How is he treating you?

What's next for you?

Last, what is Wayne DeMilia feeling about all of this?

Thanks.

Thanks Lee. But since Jim is the pres....don't you think he would understand your decision? Hell, who does HE have to answer to? Who's gonna fire him?

Now that you have competed in both, which one (IFBB or PDI) in your opinion treats the athletes better?
