Title: Ronnie Went Out With Class
Post by: The Coach on September 29, 2007, 10:07:28 PM
I've never been a Ronnie fan, but in his speech tonight, he displayed class, dignity and humility, and for those who thought he just mentioned God when he won....he took 4th and God was the first thing he mentioned in his speech and thanked him for it!

Is he still with Alti?  If so...they should just chill and enjoy life together.

Quote from: Michael Berg
They've stopped the award presentation to let Ronnie say a word. He has tears at this moment. "Y'all are the greatest fans ever. I'd like to thank all the fans that came from all over the world. This is the best contest of my life, regardless of my placing. I'm one of the happiest men in the world." People are standing again for another ovation, and chanting "Ronnie." "It doesn't get any better than this," he continues. "Thank you for supporting me. You've made me have the best life a guy could ever have, and I couldn't have done it without you all. Please come out next year, even though I won't be on stage, I'll be here cheering these guys on. Remember one thing: God has a plan for each and every one of us. All you have to do is keep the faith and accept your calling."

 :D

ronald was the greatest and most dominant champ ever. he was not only the best built, he was the biggest, and strongest, as famous for his lifts as his physique as well as his famous catch phrases and personality.
with his retirement he leaves a big void in the bbing world which will be hard to replace.

Perhaps you need to actually read this thread, it was mentioned about Ronnie thanking GOD, I simply remarked bt asking what has GOD got to do with it.  I have not disrepected anybodys belief, just merely stated that I dont believe in fictional characters.  My comment about Hell was in relation to somebody saying that I was in Hell as I result of my comment.  I choose to believe in reality, if that offends you, I am sorry, for you.  It sounds like you don't respect other peoples opinions, especially if they are not in line with yours.  Not very Christian of you.  It appears you are guilty of the very crime you are charging me with.  I am just as tired of GOD botherers as God must be.  Grow Up, and sorry to tell you, Santa soes not exist

Because one he beleives God gave him the strength to be who he was a bodybuilder. And with that came a relaxation of knowing what he had to do. And he was the most dominant Mr. O of alltime, and as was stated he was known for lifts as well as his work ethic. The reason why I said relaxation above, is because those who truly believe in God, Allah, or whatever, tend to have a quite yet jovial spirit about them, but when they know that there is work to be done, they are in the trenches.

The most jovial people I have ever met, have no belief in GOD, GOD believers to me are always child like, have trouble accepting reality and unhappy with what they have (thus the reason to pray), Psychologically speaking, the need to create a fictional father shows an immature attitude, a child like wishful thinking, the need to depend on something greater than oneself.  Enlightened beings move beyond this stage. Surely you dont truly believe that a happy man would pump himself full of dangerous chemicals, to make himself as big and intimidating as possible, and then expose himself nearly naked to a bunch of strangers, all to entertain people on the fringes of society.  Their are a lot of people who pretend to be happy, and then their are a few who are truly happy.  Do you think those who flew planes into the twin towers were happy.  These people had an immense belief in their GOD.  Personally, I don't care for GOD, and what ever force created me, I am happy with what they gave me.  I dont feel a need to pray to it to either constantly thank it or ask for help.  I am sure that force is man enough to get along without my praise, thanks or desire for assistance.

He's not the most dominant Mr Olympia of all-time thats garbage ! examine his Olympia record he has 4 of the closest calls in the history of the Olympia out of 8 Olympia's be ' only ' got straight firsts 3 times ! I love when delusional Coleman fans type because all they do is recite BSN ads and MD editorials .
