you have to consider from where most ifbb pros are coming from... their social status, education, intelligence and back ground is not something that qualifies them for rocket science status. it comes as no wonder that few have their stuff together and act like true business men and good represantatives of this sport and themselves.

I think there is an IFBB pro that actually IS a rocket scientist though... I don't remember who it is though.

Ronnie Coleman does not have a 3-digit IQ. I don't care what anyone says.

Half this board probably is under 100 IQ-wise. No shame in that. The evidence is posted daily here.

Maybe the IFBB is going to be changing for the better with a new president? Too bad guys like Chick can't be properly elected instead of appointed like in the good old days.

Nasser is a smart guy.  He is highly intelligent.  That being said, His statement about Something like 98% of Bodybuilders have used synthol is absolutely absurd.  He should know that he can only speak for himself, not try to say that "everyone else is doing it to" in an attempt to make himself look better or to save face.  I'm surprised that he did'nt start naming people.  ???

Maybe he already knows, Snitches get stitches.  I guess he didn't want to look like Tamali with the Black eye.

Well, being a bodybuilder is his job... so I'd hope it's about the money... If it's just about ego and bullshit, well, that's not very professional now is it?

I think bob is an OK guy.  He's doing his Job.  He did'nt break Lee's contract for him.  So of course he's not going take Lee's side.  Bottom line is as that the Pro's have a job to do.  There are rules that were set in place for a reason.  You wouldn't go into your job and tell your manager to fcuk off, and you are going to do $hit your way.  Priest brought all this on himself.  

He should actually stay in the PDI at least he could win shows.  With the current direction of the IFBB looking for big guys, but now looking for more Tall big guys, He's never going to place very well again.  

Plus Lee is alleged to have hit women.  Monster Napolean Complex, Trying to show dominace over a woman.  I say Cathy signs up for round to and puts the midget in the clinch and KTFO's his 5'2" ass.

It's got nothing to do with "taking sides"...it's about representing the athletes and  making sure the way they are treated is fair and just.

In Lee's case, I merely interperted the rules and explained what the consequences of those actions would be. I personaly think that Lee belongs in the IFBB, competing along side the worlds best where he belongs, and have said so from day one...

Very diplomatic.  Bob do you think he would place in the top three in a line up including Cutler, Martinez, Freeman, Coleman?  I'm not starting smack.  I just want your feedback as a pro.  Minus the it "depends who shows up in shape".  Everyone tip top, Not asking does Lee win (most of the fans know that will not happen) does Lee make the Top 3?

Well, aside from the obvious of putting them next to each other...no, I dont believe Lee would beat Coleman, Cutler, Martinez, or Freeman....other than Freeman, HAS he ever beat any of those BBers?

You should really be 100% positive about something like that, before accusing someone

You have a moral objection to malicious speculation?  ???

Man, are you in the wrong place.  :(

Lee Priest has admitted he wants to come back to the IFBB on his own free will and will do so when his suspension is up this fall. We will be posting Lee's video confession of why he will return to the IFBB. Lee mentioned he will attempt to be in the 2007 Olympia. Lee also agreed he will pay his own way as he still owes the ticket to AMI should he qualify.

The video is now online!  Check it out:

I don't think so, But when I competed in NPC shows I at least tried to Beat the guys who beat me previously.  I trained my ass off to make the necessary improvements to do so and If I did'nt, at least I knew that I tried hard.  Maybe on the pro level its all about collecting a paycheck.  With Lee it seems like he is just going to show up to collect some prize money and possibly get some sponsors.  But I doubt he has done anything to present a differnt package than we've seen in the past.  He'll place poorly and then blame the judging.  I can understand why he went to the PDI because he new he could score a win and collect some prize money.  However, PDI doesn't have nearly the same type of sponsorship that the IFBB has.  It was a dump move on his part,  It's like when Aaron Baker left to go to the WBF, His career never recovered.  AB was a good BB too.
