Congrats to Hidetada for getting his Mr. Olympia qualification, and hope to see oth Hideta and Silvio both next week at the Arnold via a special invite.
Both Chick, myself, Lift Studios and many others though that Silvio and Hidetada should of placed higher, and they improved this week, and the judges responded. Nice!
Of course, Toney is now 2 for 2 this year! Congrats!!!

Yes, you are correct..there is no 4th place bump, as both Toney and Silvio were pre qualified last week.

Chick, why do you think they placed Haidar behind Hide? It looked reversed to me. Haidar was extremely sharp in the pictures whereas Hide looked very full but significantly less sharp. was it different on stage?

I'm not in Sacramento, but judging on what I saw last week, what I saw in the pics from this show and knowing what both their physiques look like...I would guess that Hide beat Ahmed from the back...

Yes, I noticed that in the pictures too. Thanks. Still not sure if thats enough in my opinion but I see it is close and debateable. Anyone know 6-10 yet?

Bob relax, I get it but I like to bust your nads from time to time. Breathe push away from the boards..........We're friends, we go back 23 years. My name is Shawn, your Co Host for the Stingrey Classic in Hawaii Mar 23rd. I was at your wedding in Vegas and in your dreams kicking your Arse onstage. Dont flame me cause your name is really Willis. I'm an Internet Tough guy and I know what booth you'll be working in Columbus. Now APOLOGIZE before I kick you in the shin!

True. In the early days when we had the Horse and Buggy to get to and from the gym Jounalist Lonnie Teper stated he'd heard of the pain several of my foe's were feeling after their untimely demise at the hands of this 5'7 in BBer whiped them out and took no names in the late 80's! Later, the Sting became so Sweet it was like Candy and evrything came up SUGAR! Dont hate the Playa Hate the GAME or Onlyme, which ever is less filling
