Bob, what do you think the reaction in the audience would've been if there had been a live scoreboard during your last Masters competition?

Same as it was there...it wasnt really close

you think that Rusty's live posted scores would've been met by audience agreement or indifference?

Who are you speaking on behalf of? haha  
Even Flex mag, that reported on the show, said that Rusty placed way lower than he should've.
So how do you know that nobody in the audience had an issue with the results?  (Did you stack the crowd with your friends and family?)

chick please do war for the worlds or whatever again and do the masters this time, that is the only time you are entertaining, also Jerome Ferguson makes you much more likable and give him a bigger part this time, he is a star and stop holding him back.

They did it back in the 70's/ early 80's....

Back when bodybuilding was televised. Hmmm... ;)

No, Ive never proposed it....dont think it lends anything

Well, for starters it would give at least the appearance of transparency.  Even though you know that your market isn't going anywhere, one can never have a shortage of elements which add credibility.
