Title: Branch wins the Arnold
Post by: littleguns on March 05, 2011, 09:20:46 AM
If he stays crisp like he does for Prejudging....it's his! Dry and looks a little bigger than the Arnold!

Dex looks spot on as well

No way, he's not even in the top 6.

If everyone looks the same during the finals, it'll probably be

Branch
Wolf
Evan
Victor
Dexter
Ronny

Dex is a bit like Cormier - the judges keep comparing him to his previous best shape and he doesn't measure up.

He looks sharper today, but not as full and doesn't look as impressive as Branch, Wolf, Victor and Evan. I think he's just beating Ronny for 5th place.

Good analysis, but it's IMO no good thing if the judges compare someone with their previous shape, it should be about the moment. Dex wasn't the Dex from '08, but apart from this and his calves he's got a -almost- perfect structure/flow that Branch can't beat.

Branch and Dex today are like Shawn and Dorian in the 90's. Both were great but neither wanted to look like the other.

Weak chest? LMAO! The dude has finally a decent (not the best) back since a few years, and now it's too big? LMAO again.
You're only right about his arms

I penny pinch....I'm a Motel 6 fan  when it comes to price,  but some are in some raunchy places.   Reviews are like horror stories.  But knock on wood, I've had decent rooms at a great price.

Real men can sleep on the floor of a van or SUV if need be, and certainly the floor of a cheap ass motel. Props to the motel 6, fuck spending coin on a "nice" room that you will only spend a few hours in, and not even be concious for most of that time!

I'm at a Comfort Inn on I-70, about 12 Minutes from the city. the room is pretty decent and the price is fucking Great......That will save me some money to at least buy a photo from Lou (always starving to make fans pay for photo) Ferrigno.....lol

Dexter looks like he has over dieted, because he lost to a newbe. He came in too small, his legs are done.

I guess its all about wants and needs,,,,,,in this matter  ...I chose to go last yr at the last minute......and by January   most of the good places are usually booked as the Arnold (expo and other events) IS the only big thing they all look fwd to.   But usually fans will book the great places  early but like you say   I can also sleep anywhere....besides   in 2005,   I just went to the airport after the show waited in the lobby till my 6am flight!
