Hello All,
As you can see by the lack of numbers, I don't post much. However, for some reason this thread is very important and I had to add my 2 cents to this thread.
This whole situation is sad mainly because of the fact that the one who's caused all of this nonsense, is the one who is not even speaking out - Shawn Ray.
I have read a lot of Bob Chicerello’s posts, and while at times, he can say some strange or off the mark things, I don't think he is at fault here. I think Milos and Melvin are pointing their frustration to the wrong person. All in all, Bob's doing the best he can with what he has. Instead of the brutal remarks and name calling, it seems more appropriate if Milos would just offer some constructive suggestions. If athletes have issue with the job Bob is doing, simply try to help by offering ideas.
It's truly sad and a disgrace to bodybuilding that someone like Shawn Ray, who has been inducted into the Bodybuilding Hall of Fame; who's supposed to conduct himself in a professional manner (or as he calls it, “doing the business of bodybuilding;") who's a former IFBB athlete's representative himself, would stoop so low and conduct himself in such manner. Nonsense like this happens in high school. If you're supposed to be a grown a$$ man, you don't act like this.
I know that this makes for a juicy story and a good read… but it's a terrible situation if you are truly a fan of bodybuilding. This is supposed to be a professional organization and should be conducted as such.
Lastly, why is it that the only person out of all of this to be reprimanded is Silvio? What exactly did he do wrong? What ACTIONS did Silvio HIMSELF take to be put in this situation?
