Title: John Romano's dad just died - and no thread on it?
Post by: slate on December 30, 2011, 01:12:58 PM
Granted Ramano is a piece of work - but so is Bob Chic. I would go so far as saying that Chic has had a much more negative impact than Ramano.

Ramano is a bitter fella, full of hate; but if  anything the hate means that often he actually believes the poison he spews otherwise why would he commit verbal suicide all the time?

Chic, on the other hand, lies mostly for business sake. He is a 'cold liar' while ramano is a 'hot liar' - and since he is on the inside his lies are much more powerful and thus more destructive

While both are POS and bbing celebrities, only the IFBB waterboy gets to have a  thread on getbig- and i have to listen to the derrick show  to find out that ramanos' dad is dead.( where the fuck is singerboy again?)
 
Why cant the Mods put a sticky for ramano personal tragedy too?

How about that Chick posts here, contributes to bodybuilding and more, and I talk to Chick every fews weeks and see him at many, many contests and expo.  Romano does NOT post here, trashes people and rarely goes to any event anymore.

That being said, R.I.P. that Romano's dad passed away also.    Anytime, someone's family member passes away, it is tough and no one should make light of that.

LOL...I would love to hear how I've impacted anything negatively, or just what "lies" you believe I've told....

Since you like to speak in absolutes, I'll entertain your post and offer you a chance to prove your case...

First time you climbed off of the fence since I've been on getbig.  Either your schmoe card isn't in danger or the "douche" is becoming strong in you?  what you think about Cap Vince and Scumlumbo calling out getbig?  Stick up for your mad creation.

Bob's a POS?  You must know him pretty well to throw that out there. If not, STFU

I will tell you why bob is a POS- (in abbreviated form of course)

In any situation in which you have roughly two groups of people of the type: workers vs management, students vs university/college etc, where someone is to represent the interests of the "lower" group there will be roughly three -non exclusive- types of drivers for the people volunteering to 'represent'

material : money now and/or money later
psychological: power trip
ideological: power to the people

In BBing case the 3rd is clearly out of the question. The second  is a factor always, which brings us to the first

How much $$ does Bob get from the pros for representing them = 0$
How much does Bob get/got from the IFBB for representing the pros = MCing events fees,  promotion of the chic brand (= advertising $S), paid traveling/expenses, Magazine fees,  etc etc= a lot of $$s

So whose interests do you think Bob is looking after?

Why is bob a POS? because he knows very well what he is doing and he loves it

Exactly what I figured....Basle-like comments coming from someone with  absolutely ZERO to do with the industry or knowledge of how things work.

You have one thing right....I make ZERO dollars representing the athletes.  

I make ZERO dollars from the IFBB...nothing...nada.

any and all my MC gigs are paid for by the promoters, out of their own pocket...any and all contracts with supplement companies I've had, are paid for by the companies, for my work and representing them.  None of the business I do has anything to do wether or not I represent the athletes or not...doesn't help me one way or another.

keep trying...

Bob has always posted on gb rather than lurking in the shadows reading posts and not having the balls to respond like Sean Rey, and those eternal dirtbags Palumbo and Romano.

Though I don't know bob personally I could feel his skin crawl when he had to interview w Palumbo bc he worked for bsn.

That said, RIP to romano's dad.

Romano is still something else and Palumbo is still swine.

That pretty much sums it up. Bob is a class act and none of you have a clue what he does behind the scenes.

I propose a poll to the getbiggers:

Who here believes that Bob's position as the athlete's rep has not brought him significant financial rewards granted to him by people on whom the pro's have a dependency one way or the other (promoters, IFBB officials, Sponsors, etc)?
(Y)
(N)

If you voted yes above. Who here believes that Bob is very well aware of this and hence is lying through his teeth?
(Y)
(N)
-------------
Lets pretend we are in the real world and not in the IFBB fairy land. Bob, can you truly imagine anyone that had a labor legal dispute with the management of any company/federation/ whatever- to turn to a  lawyer whose main income came from representing the company in other cases? Of course not

You know this- but you bare face lie. hence you are a POS

But lets not stray from the topic of the moment (ramano being a POS not being disputed), which is Bob's profiteering on behalf of the people he claims to represent. And the longer term topic of why he is favored on this board which is supposed to speak to the powers that be,

As I just pointed out to you....I don't get paid by the IFBB, have never been on a IFBB payroll.  Promoters don't hire me because I represent the athletes, the hire me because they like my work and lend to the overall production value of a show....period.

That said, I've had many athletes come to me with many issues over the years...even a few fools like Lee Priest and Milo's,  helped as best I could, despite not being obligated to them in an way.   Did it as I believed it was the right thing to do....

I was ( and have been) The ONLY athlete that tried organizing a union, which in turn led led to the  position of an Athletes rep...had the athletes expressed an interest in being organized...I was read willing and able to lead them to the water...sadly, they were not.

bob

you are many things, but stupid is not one of them

so you understand very well that your position is what could be called a 'cluster fuck' of conflict of interests.
and would not be tolerated in any mainstream organization

The fact that you are paid nothing by the pro's that u are supposed to represent but are paid (albeit indirectly by the 'management') is nothing to be proud of. Rather it is a big part  and symptom of the problem, as it says that:

1) you have no real incentive to do anything for them (it is not as if they will stop paying you right?)
2) they do not see any benefit in what you are doing for them

this is clearer than water for god sakes

There is no conflict of any type...never has been

as I've tried to explain twice now...I don't get paid directly, or indirectly by the IFBB...One has nothing to do with the other....If you can't understand that simple concept, there isn't really any way to explain it to you

The only thing that is clear here, is that you don't have have any real knowledge of how things work...

as for incentive....I have the same incentive now as I did when trying to organize a union for the athletes...a love for the game and an interest in fairness and equity to the athletes....

For me it is not about his right to express himself but about his shit form to use someones death to pick a fight. I am sure Bob and Romano are both grieving right now and for someone to start a popularity poll off the back of announcing a sad death is just plain wrong.

Bob can defend himself and always does, Romano does not post here. However if you went to wherever he does post and started a similar thread it would look just as bad.

Crap timing, crap thread, bad form, end of story!

Bobby is a good guy, always has been.

He is also a hard worker that made his way through the ranks.  I remember when Bobby worked security at my younger brother's high school AND everyone loved Bobby.

You keep doing what you do Bobby, you're a good looking guy with most likely a rather large penis to boot.

who gives a fuck anyway, about both bob's or romano's dads deaths... Why make it public on internet messageboards filled with anonymous strangers... Another symptom of generation nothingness, attempting to get attention from anyone for about anything... All of this is private why on earth would you talk about it to complete strangers, hoping they ll tell you "rip"... pointless.
When my grandfather died the last thing i thought about was to start a thread on an internet messageboard about it. I dont understand what would come thru someone s mind for him to think "hey i have to tell everyone on that messageboard  about it".

I've known Bob C for many years now and I also know people who have known Bob for many years longer than I've known Bob and .... I have yet to hear any adverse comment regard Bob except for a few on this board who have never met Bob nor his many friends  nor even the waiters who appreciated his patronage  at the Fire House or the Rose Cafe.

But sometimes those who know not of what they speak .... have to speak of what they know not for complicated reasons of their own ....  (Shakespear??).

I still insist that what we say ... says more about ourselves than those whom we speak adversely about.

LOL....wow.

basic understanding:

yes, group A,the athletes....$0

Group B, the IFBB...$0

group C, the promoters, support companies....$ My income



get it now??????

Bob

you know very well that Group B (IFBB) and Group C are in cahoots to pay Group A (the pros) as little as possible
 
Even because groups C and B strongly overlap since a large % of promoters are also IFBB officials
Of course those IFBB officials/promoters are dependent on the sponsors

So
1- Often Group B= Group C
2-Group C pays Bob $$s  If and only if Group B (IFBB) is OK with/suggests that
2-Group A (Pros) has no influence on whether or not Group C pays Bob $$s  

hence

-Bob owes his $$s to Group B (IFBB) via Group C
-Bob has no reason ($) to protect Group A anytime from Groups B or C


If you were not in the pocket of group B  you would be MCing the Mr Somalia in Mogadishu, and would have been co-hosting with ramano and priest for VPX radio

your hypocrisy is amazing.

LOLOLOL......yeah.

like I said....arguing with someone who hasn't the basic concept of how this business works is precious.

BTW....I did MC the Sheru Classic which was held in Mumbai India...pretty close to the "Mr. Somalia in Mogadishu".....I was asked by the promoter of the show, who isn't an IFBB official, nor does he have anything to do with he IFBB Pro League.

You are a liar and an hypocrite so naturally i don't expect you to come clean.  But that is not the point since everyone that follows the ifbb knows you have used your 'athletes' rep position to further your own interests at the expense of the very people you are supposed to represent.

Nevertheless, the facts must be periodically re-iterated so that:
1) the people that know them don't grow to accept them as 'just the way it is'      
2) new GB members get to know them ASAP


that said....

I would ask you to answer the following straightforward questions:

1-Have you or have you not, received direct financial rewards from people that are both IFBB officials and contests promoters?

2a) When will the next elections for the pro athletes rep position be held-and who will determine the date
2b) how many times have you won the ballot since you first held the position in 2005?

txs for ur honest answers

name me any example of me furthering my own self at the expense of anyone else, as you allege.?

I heard the reason ramano was such a bitter guy was cause he really wanted to be a competitive bodybuilder took every drug under the sun but just didn't have the genetics for it, hence was a misrable guy to be around. You know Lots of people say such and such pros are nice guys....I never understood that cause if I was  250 4% I would be a nice guy too....hell I'd be grinning ear to ear all day long ;D

Granted Ramano is a piece of work - but so is Bob Chic. I would go so far as saying that Chic has had a much more negative impact than Ramano.

Ramano is a bitter fella, full of hate; but if  anything the hate means that often he actually believes the poison he spews otherwise why would he commit verbal suicide all the time?

Chic, on the other hand, lies mostly for business sake. He is a 'cold liar' while ramano is a 'hot liar' - and since he is on the inside his lies are much more powerful and thus more destructive

While both are POS and bbing celebrities, only the IFBB waterboy gets to have a  thread on getbig- and i have to listen to the derrick show  to find out that ramanos' dad is dead.( where the fuck is singerboy again?)
 
Why cant the Mods put a sticky for ramano personal tragedy too?  



Yeah the convicted felon John Romano,  thief and pathological liar, is a great guy
