Ron posted today that "The boards are for learning, for entertainment and for keeping up with bodybuilding...".
With this in mind, I thought we could post photos of Bob Chick as a tribute to his long and colourful career. The guy is a legend in bodybuilding: on stage,
behind the stage, in magazines, on radio, and on the forums. What can I say, the guy is in the loop and knows what is going on. He has moved on
from Getbig because he has a contract that prevents him from posting here except for official MD announcements.
Please keep the posts respectful.

Who's the pair of tits on the right Vince?
-
Oh geez, when do they turn of the electricity in the old folks homes in Australia?
-
Bob is photogenic and there are literally thousands of photos of him online.
-
You forgot to add he's a legend at the Mirage...room 7...by the ice machine... ;D

There is no evidence that Bob did anything untoward in any hotel in Vegas or anywhere else.
His hair is the real thing, too.
-
What can I say? Bob did things we all wish we had done or achieved.
-
Is he married to that broad in the pic where she is grabbing his crotch and he is sweating through his satin shirt? Any info you have in this matter will help, Vince.

For all I know that photo might be shopped. I just collect photos of my hero.

Just two hetero bros, gazing into each others eyes. Nothing going on here, only gay if youre at the Mirage ice machine want it to be.

basile, you re getting pathetic, bordering on insanity. Arent 60+ y/o suposed to do something better with their spare time?
-
You ask people to keep the posts respectful, yet you know the exact opposite will happen. That's exactly what you want Basile. We see right through you. Why not just really tell us how you feel about Bobby instead of sticking your nose up his rectum.
-
ImBasile....with all due respect to big Bob Chick, you couldn't suck the damp patch out of his posing trunks you senile, old, homosexual fool.
-

Quite the opposite. Retirees have a lot of time to kill. I wouldn't be surprised if half the board was posting from retirement homes.

Lol, I don't know why, but that image made me laugh.

I'll bet Basile is posting from inside the Port-A-Potty at an all boys pre-school.

And always lends his friends a hand:

Yeah that's his wife, toscha (sp?) how old is thier child now, like 6,7,8?
-
Come on, fellas, show some respect for the older blokes on the forum. You will all be our age one day.
Bob has done it all in the Irongame and this deserves respect.
-
Bob is awesome. So much hate here, lol. I remember watching his prep in War for the Worlds on BB.com. "guys, if you don't have the back you need by now...it aint happening." Good stuff. ;D
-
Bob's a great getbigger and spokesperson for the sport.
-
que the stretching pics

ImBasile....in your stalker relationship with Bob the Chick, you're "booty" and Chick is "Lee Priest".
He leaves a steamer on your chest without even posting a response.
Now fuck off back to whatever shithole website you came from and update them on your bicep building progress now that you've turned 90.
-
He looks so much like "shooter" in Happy Gilmore, they should make a Happy Gilmore part 2. Bob would play the role of a new and jacked up shooter Mc Gavin out to get Happy! The rest writes itself...
-
It's only gay if you want it to be and drugs are just the finishing touch
epic forearms bro
-
leave him alone. i think he just turned 80 and is "losing it".
think how much bob chick was in this guys head as Imbasile started this thread.
think how FUCKED UP your life would have to be.

What the fuck are you up to, Basile
-
Two threads about Bob were deleted recently, including one that I started. So I am seeing if a tribute thread will be deleted. I expect Bob to post here with his gimmick accounts.
-
I have one thing in common with Bob. Neither of us are homosexuals.
-

who are those two sluts?
looks fun
-
Bob is clearly not gay and neither did he do G4P. He did what I describe as artistic photos for celebrated photographers. Who wouldn't?
-
I said I thought I could still build muscle at my age and completely natural and without any supplements whatever. I am into the experiment now and completed my 4th arm workout today. Training only arms at the moment. Biceps and triceps supersets. Ending in 6 sets with the maximum resistance. Progressing rapidly which is almost scary! Mostly regaining some of my former size. I am confident I can get bigger arms than I have previouly had. Should be an interesting experiment. I will show you guys because I need a strong incentive to keep this training going. So far there is no hint of any diminished response to hypertrophy training. This is what I predicted for myself. I can't say it would be the same for everyone else. I won't even consider using any drugs or supplements. This is a purely natural experiment to show what is possible as one gets older.

If Im over 60 and posting nonsense on Getbig like Basile I'll prob just kill myself...Pathetic
-
Epic insecurity/jealousy on Vinces part.
You should just be proud that you won a national title and leave it at that.
-
Hey, Wes, you are starting to sound like a musclehead. Thick and judgemental. Why the angst?
This thread is about Bob, not me.

I find it amazing that some of you complain about Bob. Especially the one who started this thread, who really has nothing to show for much, except such bitter jealousy and worse. It's very sad.
Bob isn't a legend. We all know that. But he has done some cool things in our small industry, and has worked with some talented people. First off, he was a bodybuilder and for 15-18 years, tried to get a pro card, which he finally did, to his credit. He wasn't the best bodybuilder, not even one of the top in the industry. But also remember, during the years that he did try to get a pro card, it was much harder to do so. Those days, very few pro cards were given to bodybuilders per year, unlike this year, where 15-20 might be given out, and lots more countries are participating too.
Bob worked with us at bodybuilding.com as a spokesperson for a while, and that was a lot of fun too. Bob also tried very hard to change some things for pro bodybuilders, but alas, when the time came for them to step up and support Bob, very few did. He worked to try to change this but the bodybuilders didn't support him. Oh well. I was there when he tried. So credit to him there.
Bob tries new things. Radio shows, television ideas, emceeing and other things. He tries. Doesn't wait for things to come to him.
And unlike some of the people, Bob enjoys having fun, taking fun pictures, making fun of himself and understanding the balance of life, family, friends and the industry. Until you juggle all of that, it is hard to explain.
Yes, there are thing I am not fond of Bob, but then again, there are things I am not fond of others too. We all have our faults, and we all have our good things.
Am I mad that Bob can't post here because Blechman told him not to post anymore, like he did to Shawn Ray (it is in his contract). Not at all. I get it. Blechman provides money, a paycheck to both of them, and that matters. I don't. Simple as that. And when I see Bob, or Shawn, it is always cordial and fun. We get the industry. We have fun.
Lunch or dinner with the guys is cool. I have before, and will continue. Much harder now with Bob because he moved to Ft. Meyers, Florida from California. But with Shawn. We all had dinner just Saturday night at the Cheesecake Factory in Arcadia.
You all hate too much because he works hard at being successful. So he isnt a top notch bodybuilder. Who cares? He is part of the industry and respects it.

What industry, Ron? Bodybuilding is owned by private companies and the supplement companies have influence, too.
I complain about the way Bob gets preferential treatment. Critical threads and posts about him are removed. Many highly slanderous posts about me remain. That isn't fair dinkum and smacks of favourtism. My title was a national title. Still no blue stars but who cares, right Ron? I shouldn't have to complain to Ron about slanderous posts. It appears that if you are disapproved of on this forum you can get tarred and feathered and no one does a thing. Great forum, Ron.
I have done plenty in the Irongame but younger fellows like Ron wouldn't know half of it. I criticize Bob because he is part of the problem in bodybuilding, not the solution. I have argued this but Bob merely says I am out of the loop and an imbecile. I have a better brain than Bob. I know how intelligent I am. Most here don't realize how truly dull they are. That is the difference. There are a lot of smart guys here. I know that and they help make the place an amusing one most of the time.
If Ron is going to post to support people he should make the forum fair by having his moderators remove slanderous posts. If a guy with a masters degree in the philosophy of science is an idiot what does that make just about everyone else? I take plenty of crap from the flotsam. I despise anonymous cowards and those nasty pricks hiding behind gimmick accounts.
I post with navy font, not blue!

A lot of wasted negative energy Basille. A smart guy like you with your experience and wisdom should do something more constructive with your resources than organize a smear campaign against Chick. Or post photos of yourself with any hot chicks...that will also grant you credibility.
-
Listen to the knuckleheads! Who else on Getbig had a patent for a piece of gym equipment?
Ooh! A patent! You're a member of such an exclusive club along with the inventors of 3216423 "Apparatus for facilitating the birth of a child by centrifugal force" and 5971829 "Motorized ice cream cone". It's not at all like other clubs where all it takes to join is filing some paperwork and paying a fee...

Hey, Wes, you are starting to sound like a musclehead. Thick and judgemental. Why the angst?
This thread is about Bob, not me.
This thread is about your utter hate for Bob.................bein g judgemental is the whole point of this thread..........you being judgemental towards Bob Chick.
Just read Rons post for further info on how I feel............not gonna` waste my time typing anymore.
-
One of Chick's classic ownages of Basile - asking why anyone would drive a white van for no reason. ;D

Sounds like Basile needs his colostomy bag changed.

Ron posted today that "The boards are for learning, for entertainment and for keeping up with bodybuilding...".
With this in mind, I thought we could post photos of Bob Chick as a tribute to his long and colourful career. The guy is a legend in bodybuilding: on stage,behind the stage, in magazines, on radio, and on the forums. What can I say, the guy is in the loop and knows what is going on. He has moved on
from Getbig because he has a contract that prevents him from posting here except for official MD announcements.
Please keep the posts respectful.
I like Bob a lot, But it took him over 20 years of heavy drug use to become a pro....how can you say he is a "on stage legend"?
WOOOOSSSHHHHHHHHH

Vince,
What's your real problem with Bobby? I mean really, why the animosity towards him?
Is it because the two of you have not seen eye to eye on most matters bodybuilding related while on a bodybuilding forum?
Is it because Bobby is an actual IFBB pro that persevered when others might have simply quit?
Is it because he actually won a Pro show (regardless of how controversial it might have been in your eyes)?
Is it because he has been an MC for many Olympias and various pro bodybuilding events alike?
Is it because he is the Athlete's Rep? I mean, can you blame him? Have you ever spoken to 95% of most IFBB pros? Most of them, with all due respect, can't even formulate a basic sentence, let alone communicate their thoughts unless it involves a grunt and shoulder shrug.
Is it because he has had various lucrative contracts with companies like Bodybuilding.com, BSN and now Muscular Development?
Is it because he has found a way to stay relevant in an industry where the shelf life of most guys is anywhere between 5-10 years?
Is it because he continues to find a way to make money from an industry that doesn't provide it's competitors with retirement plans, health insurance or even a standard working salary?
Is it because he is SMART enough to understand that at the end of the day all that matters is his family's well being and that because of which, what truly matters most is what you can accomplish and continue to accomplish in the future in order to provide for those people which mean the most in your life?
Is it because he now does radio podcasts and video commentary with various figureheads in the industry for others to attain entertainment from?
Is it because he has had a few minor roles in Hollywood films, thereby bringing some form of spotlight towards bodybuilding? (A feat not done since the time of Arnold)
Is it truly about how Ron can be favorable towards Bobby (The only pro that after all of the others pussies left GetBig, actually stuck around and participated on the site and brought humor on a daily basis), not to mention how Bobby looks out for Ron whenever he can?

So you won a national title, good for you. No one is taking that away from you.
Are you an IFBB pro? No, but who cares, that's old news.
Are you involved with this industry to the extent that Bobby is? No.
Has Bobby ever hurt your business in Australia? No.
Has Bobby caused you to go broke? No.
Has Bobby taken food out the mouths of the ones you love? No.
Has Bobby spoken to IFBB officials and made a move to ban your gym from any exposure within the industry? No.
So, really, what is your damn problem with Bobby?
"1"
P.S. I have no qualms with you Vince, I just truly want to know where this is all stemming from. Also, Bobby and I have been friends for decades now, since the time when he was a security guard at my younger brother's high school to now when he has become a true celebrity within the bodybuilding industry.
-
What industry, Ron? Bodybuilding is owned by private companies and the supplement companies have influence, too.
I complain about the way Bob gets preferential treatment. Critical threads and posts about him are removed. Many highly slanderous posts about me remain. That isn't fair dinkum and smacks of favourtism. My title was a national title. Still no blue stars but who cares, right Ron? I shouldn't have to complain to Ron about slanderous posts. It appears that if you are disapproved of on this forum you can get tarred and feathered and no one does a thing. Great forum, Ron.
I have done plenty in the Irongame but younger fellows like Ron wouldn't know half of it. I criticize Bob because he is part of the problem in bodybuilding, not the solution. I have argued this but Bob merely says I am out of the loop and an imbecile. I have a better brain than Bob. I know how intelligent I am. Most here don't realize how truly dull they are. That is the difference. There are a lot of smart guys here. I know that and they help make the place an amusing one most of the time.
If Ron is going to post to support people he should make the forum fair by having his moderators remove slanderous posts. If a guy with a masters degree in the philosophy of science is an idiot what does that make just about everyone else? I take plenty of crap from the flotsam. I despise anonymous cowards and those nasty pricks hiding behind gimmick accounts.
I post with navy font, not blue!
You can lead by example, Basile. You have slandered me for many years on this board alongside Keith....remember all the times you called me a charlatan or a scam artist or a stooge or some other name which resulted in me having to perform a keyboard jihad on your fragile mind????
You also claim you've done plenty in the Irongame but I also have to beg to differ. You've critized Bob and the IFBB for the rampant use of steroids yet you used steroids during your career.
You claim to have won a national title but I have to wonder the validity of it. You admitted that you hand-picked the judges for that event.....can you really call yourself the 1970 Mr Canada based upon that????
Vince Basile, despite all of that, you still could have been a well respected person in the bodybuilding industry but instead of contributing to it, you've attacked it over and over again with extreme prejudice.
Think about it

In all fairness I will say that regardless of how basile won the mr canada the fact is that he completed and should be considered a competitor and based on that fact he does deserve blue stars, to give Vince g blue stars and not give them to basile is extremely bias and unfair. just my two cents.
-
Vince,
What's your real problem with Bobby? I mean really, why the animosity towards him?
Is it because the two of you have not seen eye to eye on most matters bodybuilding related while on a bodybuilding forum?
Is it because Bobby is an actual IFBB pro that persevered when others might have simply quit?
Is it because he actually won a Pro show (regardless of how controversial it might have been in your eyes)?
Is it because he has been an MC for many Olympias and various pro bodybuilding events alike?
Is it because he is the Athlete's Rep? I mean, can you blame him? Have you ever spoken to 95% of most IFBB pros? Most of them, with all due respect, can't even formulate a basic sentence, let alone communicate their thoughts unless it involves a grunt and shoulder shrug.

Very good questions my friend, and unanswerable...........t hat is if Vince doesn`t want to come off as simply sounding envious of Bobs achieviements.
Good post! ;)

... where's team nasser?...

Vince your jealousy is sad and pathetic!

Bob's a cool dude.

The real question here is: who was better in their prime...Ronnie or Dorian?

yup, time to refresh the "remove vince's stars now" thread!

Bob won't be back..... :'( :'(

If a guy with a masters degree in the philosophy of science is an idiot what does that make just about everyone else?
Whatever happened to that last Getbigger who thought he was smarter, and superior to everyone else.....Suckmymuscle or something like that? How's things going for that fella? ;D

bob looks good here
he seems cool to me

One of Chick's classic ownages of Basile - asking why anyone would drive a white van for no reason. ;D
That was fcking classic. And whoever came up with the rubber ducky photo is down right genius.

Most people don't think Pete Rose should be in the baseball Hall of Fame because he bet on his games as a coach therefore manipulating the outcome of games(pitchers hated the guy because he would use all the best pitchers on the games he would bet to win, and use all the deadbeat pitchers on the games he didn't bet) If Basile hand picked the judges of an event he entered, blue stars should not go to him and he should turn in his medals with an apology to the bodybuilding industry.

Isn't it odd that he never competed in another bodybuilding show all those years?

Ron has already explained before as to why he wouldn't give Basile any blue stars but as I've said for the past 8 years I didn't have them.....who gives a shit. I would think that being the 1970 Mr Canada is enough and over at Ironage, he has legend stars under his name.
Its sad because Vince Basile could easily be a highly respected person in the bodybuilding industry....perhaps even an IFBB official in Aussie. But all he does is cry and bitch and moan all the time about the most ridiculous things.
-
Isn't it odd that he never competed in another bodybuilding show all those years?
No he completed in the Mr Australia w/ Arnold Schwartznegger judging. He finished last out of 13 competitors. Basile claims that Arnold put him last as part of some conspiracy. He also won the 1970 Pacific Northwest....he got his D-bol from his wife, Roz.
The saddest thing about it is that Vince Basile is technically an pro bodybuilder since at the time he was competing he owned a gym....so its more difficult to fathom why he would bring himself down to this level of emotional shame

I stand corrected...
-
Let's us do a reality check here. Bob was appointed pro athletes rep and stated that no one is forcing them to take drugs. Since everyone does it is a level playing field.
In the meantime, some of those pros are gone and others had to retire because of poor health. Luke Wood died at a young age. Living the dream isn't what it is made out to be. Those titles and
prize money are a high price to pay for such fleeting fame. Soon enough all will be forgotten. At least I still have my prostate.

The 1975 Mr Australia was fixed. Paul Graham scored me low as did Arnold. So I placed last in the tall class. The places were by class not overall.
In the old days if you owned a gym you were considered by NABBA in England as being a professional bodybuilder. What a joke. I taught high school full time, was going to graduate school at night and ran my gym after school. There was hardly time to train. I did that after the gym closed. Yes, some owners do train when the members are there but I never did when I was competing.
I have a letter from promoter Frank Burwash that supports my claim about Paul and Arnold. Anyone who thinks Arnold is amusing should think again. He was a prick then and probably still is. He had virtually no manners when he was at my place in 1974.

I envy no one here on Getbig. Neither do I envy professional bodybuilders. I won't do that to my body. Life is short enough as it is. No need to play roulette with our health.
If I were senile and stupid I wouldn't be able to take on the Flotsam and dispatch them with their tails between their legs.
I came here to praise Bob Chick, not to destroy him.

Do you realise you behave like a Sheila on the internet? Spiteful and bitchy when anyone criticizes you. Keith and I had a duty to keep you honest but we both failed.
You still keep posting your dreams on Getbig. Where is your studio you said you were opening? When are you going to win a bodybuilding contest? It is okay with me
if it is held in the hills of North Carolina.

Don't be so crude. Arnold did use force to seduce our 16 year old babysitter. That was in our penthouse apartment in Manly in 1974.
The 1975 Mr Australia contest was a different matter. Short story here. I challenged Robert Nailon to compete in the Mr Australia contest.
He enterred the Mr NSW contest that year and won. Arnold was the guest poser and maybe a judge, too. Hans Meyer looked better to me
and most of the audience so when Robert was announced as the winner I booed and so did many in the audience. After the contest Paul
Graham had his usual get-together for bodybuilders and officials and someone accused gym member Andrew Shigelski of booing Robert.
He told them that I started the booing and others joined in. Robert wasn't at all pleased. I didn't join that group after the show. Apparently,
Paul and Arnold heard that and said they would get even with me in Melbourne. I heard about what they were going to do so warned Frank
Burwash. Frank did nothing and that was a huge disappointment. In retrospect I should have withdrawn from the contest. I gained nothing
from competing but I had challenged Robert and called him a paper tiger so had to compete. Roger Walker won that year. I voiced my opinion
at the judges and athletes meeting that Roger had already won the title and others should be given a chance to win it. Arnold spoke out
against me and my motion was defeated as no one supported me. After the contest a humble Ian Perrott, who placed second, said he should
have supported me. He said he could win the next year. As it turned out Ian committed suicide and never won the Mr Australia. I always
wonder if he would still be alive had he won that year. So Arnold and Paul did some despicable things in those days.

That's actually a great physique Vince. At least, by my criteria.
-
Thanks to the people here who say positive things. Sometimes one or two positive voices can make all the difference in the world.

Vince is a bitter old man
he is still crying about a contest held 36 years ago
he has a personality disorder and should seek help the bitterness is destroying him

I miss the BSN blitz By Bob Chick talking so excited about The "big bad Wolf" and the "Nasty" one....where can i find those clips?
WOOOSSSHHHHHHHHHH

Yes, some owners do train when the members are there but I never did when I was competing.
Those "Professional" rules had nothing to do with NABBA. Prior to 1974 the Australian Bodybuilding Federation made up their own rules and judging criteria, then in '74 they became affiliated to the IFBB. NABBA hadn't even bothered to reply to Frank Burwash's request to affiliate with them.

Vince had a great build but bitches about the contest like Mentzer did over the 80` Olympia.
Should have just accepted it and used the negativity in the gym in an effort to win the next one.

You guys take this internet shit so serious!
Bob Chick is entertaining as hell and knows his shit
-
Hi Bob :)
-
I would take a guess and say at least 5 pros post here regularly under gimmick handles. Bodybuilders are attentiond whores by design. There is no way they wouldn't be tempted to post here.
-
Bob's a good dude and would decimate many "pros" these days. Including that walking eyesore Branch.
-
Wouldn't it be a hoot if at 8 pm tonight each and every gimmick was revealed!
It is convenient for cowards to use a gimmick to do their nasty stuff. I don't resort
to such tactics because I have detested the anonymity of forums and chat rooms. Nope,
I have never been in chat room.
Does Bob use a gimmick?
-
at least vince b was a pro
-
at least vince b was a pro
Naw, I was never a professional bodybuilder. I never did a guest pose for anyone. In those days the 'pros' did that. We never were allowed to pose to music. Only Arnold, and other guest posers could do that. Ah, the good old days.
I wasn't that big, either. Dr Walzack said I could be a Mr Universe within 6 months under his supervision. I think he meant using Deca Durabolin. No thanks. I took some minor risks with a few Dianabol tablets a few times and that is the extent of my drug usage. No way those titles and trophies meant that much to me.
Bob is a huge guy. No doubt he paid his dues and the cost was high. That is exactly what I wanted to avoid....and did. I am in good health for my age and will be 70 in a couple months.

LOL :D

vince at least has some points here.
getbig can never tolerate anything so-called racial about blacks, jews, but you can post anything to ridicule white people and other races.
also, some posts would be deleted without a rational explanation, but other would stay here forever no matter how insulting or inappropriate they are.
-

Well, Wes, as it turned out that was my last contest. I tore by biceps doing a 509 pound deadlift in the winter and the gap in my arm ended my career.
So I never had another chance. There were and are a lot of great bodybuilders in Australia.
I used some negativity to train hard in 1970. Ken Rivard asked me if I was enterring. Heck, no I am going to win it, I replied. He laughed in my face.
That was all the encouragement I needed. Ken came second. There was no Mr Canada held in 1971 so I held the title for two years. Ken never won
the title but John Mikl and Walter Cuts Milner did win the title. John has a band and calls himself Thor. Walter was a fabulous fellow from Moosehorn,
Manitoba. Very popular and a great Mr Canada. Unfortunately, Walter died after falling off a scaffold while working as a window cleaner.

soon, you will have been posting solely on vince goodrum, bob chick and how fucked up the ass you got by the bodybuilding industry for 48 hours straight!!
actually, come to think of it, this makes up your whole post count in all of your getbig years!
getbig is a way to vent your anger at these 3 main focuses in your life haunting you day in day out.
-
Some guys are meek in real life and tigers on the net. Suckmymuscle, for example. Others are strong guys but meek online. This applies to most bodybuilders. Then there are some who are the same no matter where they are. I like to think I am like this. So what if events happened 30 or more years ago. People are still debating the 80 Olympia and rightly so. That is fun because it concerns bodybuilders. Things that affected us emotionally tend to linger as if time didn't change. So who can say why people post on the internet. Who cares? What is obvious is that many here read stuff I post. If they are so pissed off why bother reading threads I start? No one here is going to own me so give up that pursuit. I started this thread to see if a thread about Bob Chick would stay up and not be removed. So far this is still here so I figured out a way to do so.
It makes me laugh how so many are so judgemental on Getbig. I voice my opinion but guys like Goodrum amuse me. They don't occupy any space in my psyche that is important. I don't envy Chaos, Bob Chick or even Ron Avidan. Good for them if they get accolades or make money from the Irongame.
-
Bob meets his mentor.
-
What industry, Ron? Bodybuilding is owned by private companies and the supplement companies have influence, too.
I complain about the way Bob gets preferential treatment. Critical threads and posts about him are removed. Many highly slanderous posts about me remain. That isn't fair dinkum and smacks of favourtism. My title was a national title. Still no blue stars but who cares, right Ron? I shouldn't have to complain to Ron about slanderous posts. It appears that if you are disapproved of on this forum you can get tarred and feathered and no one does a thing. Great forum, Ron.
I have done plenty in the Irongame but younger fellows like Ron wouldn't know half of it. I criticize Bob because he is part of the problem in bodybuilding, not the solution. I have argued this but Bob merely says I am out of the loop and an imbecile. I have a better brain than Bob. I know how intelligent I am. Most here don't realize how truly dull they are. That is the difference. There are a lot of smart guys here. I know that and they help make the place an amusing one most of the time.
If Ron is going to post to support people he should make the forum fair by having his moderators remove slanderous posts. If a guy with a masters degree in the philosophy of science is an idiot what does that make just about everyone else? I take plenty of crap from the flotsam. I despise anonymous cowards and those nasty pricks hiding behind gimmick accounts.
I post with navy font, not blue!
Sorry to burst your bubble but there are some genuinely intelligent people here and your possessing a masters in philosophy does not gain you automatic entry into the club. Ironically, your degree evinces stupidity, because there is literally zero use for a masters in that field. That you didn't build it into a PhD (the degree's only conceivable purpose) is bizarre and perhaps another thing to be bitter about. Nice try attempting to impress, however.
P.S. Since you are so smart, what are your views on constructive empiricism?

I used some negativity to train hard in 1970. Ken Rivard asked me if I was enterring. Heck, no I am going to win it, I replied. He laughed in my face.
That was all the encouragement I needed. Ken came second. There was no Mr Canada held in 1971 so I held the title for two years. Ken never won
the title but John Mikl and Walter Cuts Milner did win the title. John has a band and calls himself Thor. Walter was a fabulous fellow from Moosehorn,
Manitoba. Very popular and a great Mr Canada. Unfortunately, Walter died after falling off a scaffold while working as a window cleaner.
Now that`s what I meant Vince...I thrive off the negativity from my detractors.
I remember Milner and Miikl,as well as Nailon,Peter McCarthy,Graham,Rivard and all the Canadians also.
Remember,I`m older than dirt, and have probably read every old mag at least 5 times minimum from cover to cover. :)

If a guy with a masters degree in the philosophy of science is an idiot what does that make just about everyone else?
To be fair, a degree - even a graduate degree - isn't evidence of intelligence. Is your degree an M.Phil. in Science or an M.Sc. in Philosophy of Science? The latter sounds like a rather unique degree; I haven't heard of any institution granting a degree in the "Philosophy of Science" and would like to know what the curriculum included.

Karl Popper was the philosopher who rekindled my interest in philosophy. Previously I was keen about ethics. Little did I know how the unscrupulous would rule the internet. Nobody foresaw the internet when I was at university in the sixties. I did my philosophy of science at Sydney University. It is an interesting subject. Yes, I regret not continuing for a PhD but I had answered questions that had puzzled me and I was more interested in hypertrophy. That must sound strange but there you are. It might have been infinitely more rewarding to lecture at a university instead of posting on Getbig!!
I am a materialist and do not subscribe to the notion of something that is non-material. That means that ideas, values and feelings are material things. Sounds strange but it is the truth. Of course, according to Popper, we can be mistaken.
Here is a brief summary of Karl Popper from the net:
Karl Popper
“Our knowledge can only be finite, while our ignorance must necessarily be infinite.”
Summary
Sir Karl Raimund Popper (1902 - 1994) was an Austrian-born British philosopher and a professor at the London School of Economics. He is counted among the most influential philosophers of science of the 20th century, and also wrote extensively on social and political philosophy, the problem of Determinism and Free Will.
He is perhaps best known for Science as Falsification by advancing empirical falsifiability as the criterion for distinguishing scientific theory from non-science; and for his vigorous defense of liberal democracy and the principles of social criticism which he took to make the flourishing of the "open society" possible.
He made essential contributions to the concept of a Biocentric Culture (see Vital Unconscious and Biocentric Principle).
Ideas
•Science as Falsification - Popper envisioned science as evolving by the successive rejection of falsified theories. From Conjectures and Refutations: ◦It is easy to obtain confirmations, or verifications, for nearly every theory - if we look for confirmations.
◦Confirmations should count only if they are the result of risky predictions; ie we expected an event which was incompatible with the theory - an event which would have refuted the theory.
◦Every “good” scientific theory is a prohibition - it forbids certain things to happen. The more a theory forbids, the better it is.
◦A theory which is not refutable by any conceivable event is non-scientific.
◦Every genuine test of a theory is an attempt to falsify it, or to refute it.
◦Confirming evidence should not count except when it is the result of a genuine test of the theory - this means that it can be presented as a serious (but unsuccessful) attempt to falsify the theory.
•One can sum up all this by saying that the criterion of the scientific status of a theory is its falsifiability/ refutability/ testability.
•His partnership with John Eccles (they were both Dualists and later Trialists) produced many conversations about the interaction between a non-material mind and the material brain.

Now this has to be a ridiculous statement. Perhaps you can define your concept of intelligence. A doubt a person with below average intelligence can earn a post graduate degree. Certainly not in philosophy.

I started this thread to see if a thread about Bob Chick would stay up and not be removed. So far this is still here so I figured out a way to do so.
You obviously don't realize how empty your life is with a quote like this at the age of 70.
"figured out a way" to keep a thread up on getbig.com...about bob chick.
Congratulations. You will die a peaceful man.

Your writing, as evidenced by the above post, suggests, indeed, that the only way you would come into possession of a master's degree in philosophy is to find one accidentally. I'm not sure about Vince B's time as a graduate student, but you might be surprised to learn how competitive it is to get into top philosophy of science programs like, inter alia, Pittsburgh, ANU, Sydney (Sydney is especially distinguished for its specialty in the philosophy of biology), and LSE. You also might want to research how well U.S. undergraduate philosophy majors score on standardised tests for graduate programs, e.g., GRE & LSAT (even when religion majors are lumped in with philosophy). My impression is that thinkers such as Popper, Kuhn, and Hempel are light years beyond your grasp. So, by all means, don't risk disappearing into the ether and get back to eating those Crackerjacks.

Chaos, how on earth can anyone make conclusions about personality from posts on discussion boards? I posted on a forum for a few years and was invited to the webmaster's home in California. After chatting with him for about 20 minutes he told me I was a funny guy. I asked if that wasn't obvious on the forums. Nope. So there you are. My sense of humour must differ from the rank and file here. One of my daughters said that most people 'don't get me'. Instead of finding me amusing they think I am stupid or someone weird. At my gym I am always being light and having fun. I have many awards for shit-stirring. They give out extra large wooden spoons as a prize. I often try to post amusing stuff here but that isn't how I am perceived.
Same goes for you, Chaos, you don't seem like a guy who has fun yet you claim you do. So what do I know? Well, unless your idea of having fun is to try to make others squirm.

Kudos for very accurate assumptions Vince, perhaps you are not as limited as i first suspected.
But yes the individidual who i mentioned is really of very average intellectual capacity. He just had an interest in philosophy and put some work in. He has no great aptitude for conversation, problem solving, logic, memorization, or any other aspect of higher thinking that i can think of.
Philosophy is a very wishy washy subject. Although i do have a great respect for it.

I didn't mean my OP as an attack on you and you seem to have misinterpreted it as such. But anyways, a degree isn't evidence that a person is intelligent anymore than a driver's license is evidence that a person is a good driver. When it comes down to it, all it takes to get some undergraduate degrees is the ability to memorize things, which doesn't necessarily translate to intelligence. Even graduate-level degrees can be had this way. History being a prime example.

What has age got to do with anything? At my gym the young guys have the same problems we had when we were young. How to get big, how to score, how to have confidence. Nothing has changed. If guys are going to hide behind gimmicks then who the hell are they? They can be anyone they want. Of course, those challenged in the intellect department are soon seen for the limited dopes they are. If I were them I might think it wise to remain anonymous, too! That isn't being a man. No way. You guys can learn from older guys but you figure you already know enough. Look at the lame attacks in this thread. Most here are incapable of sticking to the theme which was to post about Bob Chick. Does the guy who is the most offensive and outrageous win accolades from the passersby? The lunatics have surely ruined this forum. But that is what Getbig has always been. A schmoe runs it and appoints stooges to moderate it for him. This forum is the wild west of muscle forums and people get hung for trespassing or offending here.
Bob Chick and guys like Ron Avidan are part of the problem in modern bodybuilding. They accept who is running it and get rewarded for their cooperation. I prefer to see honest contests judged by fair and competent judges through a lucid and accurate system that selects the best bodybuilder on stage. I don't like what I see so I post about it but of course expect Bob Chick and others to try to silence me. That is why they are so nasty. Trouble is I am not leaving. So they have a problem. Well, easy enough just discredit me and put shit on me and some of it will stick.
Like Ron having rules about Blue Stars. He has never been a competitor. What would he know what it is all about? Running around with a D7? Nope, I have done that decades ago. He posted that I don't get Blue Stars because I competed too long ago. Wtf is that shit? Not fair and lame as anything. It smacks of a conspiracy to not give me any credit on Getbig. I am an authority on hypertrophy and few here have a clue about the philosophy of hypertrophy. I am also one of the few here who have won a national title and it was in the IFBB. They should show more respect.

And another thing, look at the drugs used by the professionals and many others in bodybuilding. Look at the professional women. Wtf is that? Who is responsible for this sordid mess? The buck stops with those running the IFBB and NPC. Other organizations aren't as powerful. Ben and Joe and Jim made sure of that. So what about testing for banned substances? Who is going to implement that and save this subculture? When I was young people thought we were musclebound and maybe narcissistic and maybe gay and maybe dumbbells. Today the public have no doubt it is 'all drugs'. Luke Wood died for Christsake. Who takes the blame for that? Don't give me the crap about his making bad decisions. He decided to be a professional bodybuilder and picked up information along the way. Who cares about Mike and Ray Mentzer? They died before reaching 50 which was 11 years ago. They weren't knuckleheads but they had short lives just the same. Many guys are retiring and looking smaller because of damage to organs and health. Prostates enlarge and some have them removed. That isn't a good end for a bodybuilding career. Some guys are on dialysis. What kind of insanity led to such treatments? And so it goes, on and on and hardly anything is done about it.
Bodybuilders now paint a tan on. Most of the women have fake boobs. The costumes are ridiculous and the sport has become a sideshow. I honestly don't care to attend unless someone from my gym is competing and even then I can't get motivated. In the old days 'everyone' went and it was great to catch up with other gym owners at contests. Now I see a few at trade shows that have little or nothing to do with bodybuilding.
Some claim that Bob is a good bloke and is doing what he can to help bodybuilders. Well, the task is beyond him. Band-aid solutions are not what is required. Drug testing is. Those who fail should be banned for life. Period. Otherwise, there is no way to clean this sport up. Who out there would encourage a son or daughter to take up bodybuilding? I mean in the sense of aiming for titles. I know I don't. Train with weights and machines by all means but forget about competing.

The 1975 Mr Australia was fixed. Paul Graham scored me low as did Arnold. So I placed last in the tall class. The places were by class not overall.
In the old days if you owned a gym you were considered by NABBA in England as being a professional bodybuilder. What a joke. I taught high school full time, was going to graduate school at night and ran my gym after school. There was hardly time to train. I did that after the gym closed. Yes, some owners do train when the members are there but I never did when I was competing.
I have a letter from promoter Frank Burwash that supports my claim about Paul and Arnold. Anyone who thinks Arnold is amusing should think again. He was a prick then and probably still is. He had virtually no manners when he was at my place in 1974.
Geez Vince, never heard this tall tale before.
Wait a minute, yes I have, that's the same story you have been spewing out for years. Let it go old man, you don't want to take it to the grave like your "special friend" Mentzer. Move on Vince

Maybe you should return to university and get that PhD once and for all rather than post on here and function as a veritable punching bag for a bunch of douchenozzles. Surely, it would be more fulfilling.
Also, materialism (as traditionally conceived) is not a viable doctrine. If you were studying during the sixties you should have witnessed the rise of functionalism - a doctrine that puts the lie to materialism with regard to the mind - first hand. How did you miss out on that?
Yeah!

All this shit about being interested in young boys. Wtf is that shit? Say that to Ron and see how long you last. You guys are true flotsam and scambags. Filt!
this post was made 7 hours after your last one at 3 am australia time.
you went to bed, woke up 7 hours later at 10 am and logged straight into getbig.com to whinge about not having blue stars next to your internet forum username at the age of 70 years old.
you have some bucket list.

What industry, Ron? Bodybuilding is owned by private companies and the supplement companies have influence, too.
I complain about the way Bob gets preferential treatment. Critical threads and posts about him are removed. Many highly slanderous posts about me remain. That isn't fair dinkum and smacks of favourtism. My title was a national title. Still no blue stars but who cares, right Ron? I shouldn't have to complain to Ron about slanderous posts. It appears that if you are disapproved of on this forum you can get tarred and feathered and no one does a thing. Great forum, Ron.
I have done plenty in the Irongame but younger fellows like Ron wouldn't know half of it. I criticize Bob because he is part of the problem in bodybuilding, not the solution. I have argued this but Bob merely says I am out of the loop and an imbecile. I have a better brain than Bob. I know how intelligent I am. Most here don't realize how truly dull they are. That is the difference. There are a lot of smart guys here. I know that and they help make the place an amusing one most of the time.
If Ron is going to post to support people he should make the forum fair by having his moderators remove slanderous posts. If a guy with a masters degree in the philosophy of science is an idiot what does that make just about everyone else? I take plenty of crap from the flotsam. I despise anonymous cowards and those nasty pricks hiding behind gimmick accounts.
I post with navy font, not blue!
good post..and I agree with the part about people on here having no respect for you and slandering you.....having some fun is one thing but they go overboard.....I find Basile's posts to be pretty good and informative..I have never understood the hate directed at Basile
-
What has age got to do with anything? At my gym the young guys have the same problems we had when we were young. How to get big, how to score, how to have confidence. Nothing has changed. If guys are going to hide behind gimmicks then who the hell are they? They can be anyone they want. Of course, those challenged in the intellect department are soon seen for the limited dopes they are. If I were them I might think it wise to remain anonymous, too! That isn't being a man. No way. You guys can learn from older guys but you figure you already know enough. Look at the lame attacks in this thread. Most here are incapable of sticking to the theme which was to post about Bob Chick. Does the guy who is the most offensive and outrageous win accolades from the passersby? The lunatics have surely ruined this forum. But that is what Getbig has always been. A schmoe runs it and appoints stooges to moderate it for him. This forum is the wild west of muscle forums and people get hung for trespassing or offending here.
Bob Chick and guys like Ron Avidan are part of the problem in modern bodybuilding. They accept who is running it and get rewarded for their cooperation. I prefer to see honest contests judged by fair and competent judges through a lucid and accurate system that selects the best bodybuilder on stage. I don't like what I see so I post about it but of course expect Bob Chick and others to try to silence me. That is why they are so nasty. Trouble is I am not leaving. So they have a problem. Well, easy enough just discredit me and put shit on me and some of it will stick.
Like Ron having rules about Blue Stars. He has never been a competitor. What would he know what it is all about? Running around with a D7? Nope, I have done that decades ago. He posted that I don't get Blue Stars because I competed too long ago. Wtf is that shit? Not fair and lame as anything. It smacks of a conspiracy to not give me any credit on Getbig. I am an authority on hypertrophy and few here have a clue about the philosophy of hypertrophy. I am also one of the few here who have won a national title and it was in the IFBB. They should show more respect.
I do agree that if Vince has blue stars you should get some as well

he's repetitive and bitter!
you have to be a long time member for this to actually get to you.
I ask you to look at his post history. not to read every single damn post, but just go back to his very first posts here on getbig and you will find that they are almost a copy and paste of the posts he has typed in this thread today...6 years later!
the same posts, over and over and over and over. fuck, i want to shoot myself.

Vince G didnt pick his own judges.
blue stars for competing in a corrupt competition of chosen judges by the 1st placer getter ::)

I never picked my judges for the show, I never whined about my placing, and I am still active in the bodybuilding industry.
Basile is whining about the past, complaining about bodybuilding industry, and threatening to rip people's rib cages out with his bare hands

Vince.I have respect for you and I was one of the guys that felt you should have your blue stars...I said so openly....but if YOU get stars, then Basile should get them as well..no offense to you....just because Basile is a whiner doesn't mean that he should be denied...also, bodybuilding has a lot to whine about...

I've said many times that who gives a shit about stars. I never requested them, asked for them, and prior to being given the stars, I told Ron to shove them up his ass as far as I was more concerned because I was more concerned about people telling me that he and Issac liked to crack jokes about me at show. I still wonder about that but I've concluded that I'll never get an answer and I dropped the whole matter as it was only a negative connotation on my daily outlook. Too much stress for me to deal with and I enjoy being a happy go lucky person.
Vince Basile claims to be smart and has a Master's in Philosophy yet he lets the lack of some blue stars under his name to take over his mind and his life....perhaps its because he knows that his claim to fame..The 1970 Mr Canada title is a joke since he picked out his own judges and/or he feels guilty about popping Dianabol like tic tacs in order to get it.
I don't why Basile gets bent out of shape for.....he owns a large gym, he has bodybuilding credentials and trophies, and he has a lot of friends along with patents for equipment. Why does he constantly allow Ron and Bob to dictate whether he was a competitor or not???? He's smarter than that.
If Vince Basile cared about the IFBB and the industry, he should participate in it as I do rather than bitch and moan about it all the time. Why blame Bob Chick for the state of the industry when he doesn't get one red cent from his job as the Athlete's Representative. He's doing everything he can to make things better for bodybuilders for absolutely free. He doesn't get a kickback or anything for it. He's doing because he cares about the welfare of fellow IFBB Pros.
Do I think Vince Basile should get blue stars....of course I think so, I've said it before. However, I think that he could devote his energy to other more important things and that he is stressing himself out to an early grave over this very trivial manner.
-
The only way Ron should give Vince blue stars is if Vince displays the word Tickle Monster in his handle for 5 years.
-
The Blue Star issue isn't about me it is about the rules on Getbig. Those rules should be applied to everyone equally. If this doesn't happen then there is an oversight or there is bias. Ron didn't give Melvin his due until recently. In my case it isn't an oversight because Ron changed the rule saying I won too long ago. That is truly pathetic. I leave it to fair minded individuals to see the unfairness here.
-
Whether or not the dude won a fixed contest doesn't matter, I'm sure he competed before, so he deserves the stars.

Vince, no one cares, you can have mine if you like I didnt even have to grovel for them.

Obviously an excuse. Ron doesn't like your views hence he doesn't like you. I'm surprised he hasn't put you in TO after the disparaging things you have said about him. Ron puts up with a lot of shit but I guess the money is worth it.
-

That's awful nice of you. What's the deal???
-
The fact that you justify your bitterness and envy towards Bob and others with "the fucked up state of bodybuilding today" is pathetic.
-
I have read many of Bob's posts/replies and he is intelligent and articulate. Seems like a class act. A guy that thinks before he speaks. And no i'm not Bob.

Is this real life? that one of this guys goals in life at 70 is to have a set of stars just under the username, to be colored blue?
I just had this funny image of Ron at vinces funeral laying down six blue home made stars cut with scissors colored in with crayon lol.

What a bunch of knuckleheads. I am talking about principles and rules and they make conclusions about life goals! I am referring to known individuals not secret hacks.

Look Vince, I've been petitioning my ass off for rainbow colored stars for well over 8 years and, for some reason, they won't accommodate me.

Why do you want his gym for, you already own one
I actually have 5 gyms. I would like to expand into Basile's city. I usually buy them when they are run down or tired, or when the owners are sick of it.

It would be prohibitively expensive. It comes with the terminator machine for biceps that Basile himself designed. That alone would raise the price by several hundred thousand dollars ;D

He looks so much like Shooter McGovern from Happy Gilmore it's untrue.

VINCE, YOU HAVE VERY SHORT MEMORY DON'T YOU REMEMBER R.C.'s COMMENT ABOUT YOUR BODY ;D

If Im over 60 and posting nonsense on Getbig like Basile I'll prob just kill myself...Pathetic
;D ;D ;D
Hey VINCE, how is your buddy Lee from Newcastle ?.

bob always seemed like a pretty cool guy, i never met him and im just going by what hes posted in the past
-
:o
Not sure but BDB does around 842.
-
Mr Basile is a very intelligent, educated and reflected. I don't understand why he would want to waste his time among all the intellectual midgetry going on here. He had a good physique and still a clear mind at his age. Not many of you will achieve that.

You are talking about equality and rules on a forum (that you don't own nor admin) for men in thongs and their worshipers ? How you can give a fuck about that is beyond me ???

How great would it be if Ron decided to instead of give Vince B. 5 blue stars, he gives him 5 small white windowless vans...

Bob's a phenomenal athlete and as a family man he's second to none, but he's an atrocious ambassador of the sport.

Seems like a pretty good guy. Would like to see him drop 30 or so pounds and give his body a rest. Not like these other older guys who are hanging on for dear life.

He actually looks like shit considering what he once was. Age is no excuse, we have Groink here, same age as Bobert and looks 10 x's better.

True but at the same time he was still kicking around the idea of going for the Masters Olympia so maybe that's why he's keeping his size?

The heart only knows weight. Anyone around 50 years old on up and walking around over 225 is not healthy. Regardless of what they look like. And if you throw the big C word into the mix, the weight really should come off with a vegetarian alkaline diet.

Didn't he just have a health scare of some sort? Can't imagine the masters Olympia being worth it.

I don't know man but in his last video you see him workout at his buddies new gym and he says as he is leaving that a few associates close to him want him to compete and he's considering it or something along those lines. Maybe he's gonna give another run for the gold and the glory. I haven't seen them discuss it on CNN or anything yet so it's all speculation at this point.

shitload of foods are Alkaline that most wouldn't think were. And, one doesn't only have to eat alkaline foods. They just have to keep their blood alkaline. Maybe eat five alkaline foods to one not.

I can understand any closet case ( like you ) wanting to screw ol' handsome Bob, but why do you want to do his horse?

it is great to fuck with Bob in GB knowing he cant reply other than via one of his multiple handles for fear of being evicted from his foreclosed home
So many years licking ass for nothing. Poor Bob.
I guess he has a genetic pre-disposition to failure. Fortunately not related to AAS abuse
