All things being considered, I probably would have beaten Branch, Dennis and a few or all of the ones that placed ahead of those two , don't really know. Considering that I was in much better condition than most, if not all, in New York, who knows. Didn't compete due to the fact that I have purchased a Great Earth Vitamin Store In Houston and had to attend training seminars(setting myself up for life after Bodybuilding) the week of the Colorado. Still in great shape, could have easily done the show, kind of dissapointed that things worked out this way. I was really looking forward to beating some of the GetBig heroes that you guys pump up on this board
Phil's Met Rx contract is 6 figures, couple that with his Weider deal and some guest posings and I think he is playing it smart. Why put his body through that for 10K, when it would be better served resting and improving? Smart move I think.
He was never planning on competing. Phil was guest posing at Jeramy Freeman's show on the East Coast. Sherman was listed and believe stated here that he was going to compete.
