Title: Is it time bodybuilding was in the Olympics?
Post by: Darren Avey on August 10, 2016, 10:31:17 AM: The toughest , most brutal sport where only real warriors survive. Its beyond me why bodybuilding isn't in the Olympics and I'm going to start a campaign to have it in from Tokyo 2020. We NEED this, the Olympics needs this and the world needs this.

hahahahahahaha oh, brother ::)

OK, "Darren Avey," you go ahead and start a campaign to add the "sport" of bodybuilding to the Olympic lineup and you're likely to experience the same level of "success" you have achieved in lobbying for more glory holes at The Colonel. Gayer than taking part in a protest.

Bunch of gassed-to-the-rafters muscle pageant contestants slathering oil, "dialling-in" their condition and gyrating their hips onstage to shitty rap songs.

Or worse, truly "drug-free" "athletes" looking like twinkdogs at 165 pounds.

I used to laugh when reading Flex magazine back in the day and every month there would be a section featuring Ben Weider and Rafael Santonja travelling the globe handing out random awards and gifts to various members of the IOC. There would always be an accompanied picture of these two flanking a very unimpressed and bored-looking dignitary who most likely chucked his ~~bribe~~ award into the nearest trash can on the way out.

Damn, you're refreshing my memory. Yes. Every bloody FLEX issue.
