Don't forget the spelling bee that gets more air time the bodybuilding on ESPN but is not even close to a sport.

I was just gonna say..!

Even "Paper, Rock, Scissors" got some airtime last summer (or was it 2 summers ago?)

Is a pro card like a symbol of prestiege in the real world? Does having a procard mean that I can't beat a pro?

It doesn't matter if YOU think it's a sport or not..you're not a pro BB.

Well neither are you when it comes right down to it. The money you have won competing doesn't even cover the expense of the steroids you take.

You cant compete against a pro as you arent one yourself...so the answer stays as is...no, you cant beat a pro BB.

I don't understand how people can devalue a bodybuilding pro-card. For some it comes easier than others no doubt, however it is a long term commitment and achievement, which clearly exemplifies an individuals drive and motivation. What a person then chooses to do with it is up to them.

To put someone down that has achieved a goal as painstaking as an IFBB pro-card shows little respect for any goal driven individual.

*write that down*

It's YOU that is missing the point my friend...being an IFBB pro means you were good enough to achieve a certain level of achievment...if you never make it there, it's irrelevant who you think can beat who....they're not in the same league.

Exactly what league is that. This is an IFBB Pro. And there are others that look even worse than he does.

enlarging muscles for public display is a sport isn't it?
