Excerpt from the Flex article:
Prince has given up competing, but not bodybuilding. He will continue helping competitors, writing articles and, of course, training. He looks forward to being a "smaller version" of himself, pegging a lean 240 pounds as a possible target--still a massive tally for someone 5'8", but significant downsizing for the man known as The Thing. "I want to find a look I can shoot for," he declares. "You have to always be striving toward something or what are you lifting weights for? It's like getting in a car and going OK, I want to drive but I have nowhere to go."

I'd say he's closing in on 240lbs right about....












right about.....


















right about......














almost there.....
























Oh shit, you can't take gear.  Forget it.

But he was no better, either.  He wanted to sling shit and be an ass like "one of the guys", but then demanded to be "respected like a pro" when someone fired back at him.  Sorry, Shari, you can't have it both ways.  Prince was the same way... maybe even worse.

There's another story about prince opening his big mouth on mayhem and deleting it when "he came down" but I bore of endlessly rehashing it so I'll just put a slight prompt out there and anybody with more time can elaborate.


he'd come on as The Thing and get all keyboard warrior full of rage and say this wild siht and then come back after he edged off and either delete or rewrite everything.

Didn't Tom Prince claim to be an English teacher at the University of Iowa before he got into bodybuilding? Then it was later found to be untrue.

wat was kamali's and princes old usernames

"Jedi Master" and "The Thing". Prince later changed his name to "Crank Yanker". Bob also posted around that time as "Chick".  If you can believe it, he was the least annoying of the three.

We just referred to them as the "Three Stooges".

back to the subject of the boards:  getting big.   Prince had his bad years, as do most, but no one can deny he was one of the first mass monsters.  I always thought he had an ideal physique for a lot of us.  Too bad he paid the price, I always like him as a bodybuilder.

what people want to do with their lives is none of your business and for you to assess judgement is juvenile

As a libertarian, I agree.  But some people are judged because they are classified in the same groups as people who ruin the reputation for the whole group in the minds of ignorant people.  For instance, I don't like how some girls don't trust guys because they were abused or cheated on by guys in the past.  Although in my life, virtually everyone gets along with me, but some do get judged due to actions of others.

I'll give an example: a few months ago I saw a black guy in the cafeteria at my university stealing food, and he was caught by an older Polish woman working there who had come to Canada when she was much younger.  As an older woman set in her ways, how horrible is it that the actions of one black theif has to affirm her previously held stereotypes towards black people and possibly continue to prevent her from ever trusting black people?  I feel that people in groups who are typecast have a greater responsibility than average to break the mold.  Think about the scene where Tony Montana was arrested by a fellow Cuban for having all that money - the Cuban police officer was disgusted that Tony was propagating stereotypes to his demographic.

I may be small by pro bodybuilding standards, but I am nevertheless big and muscular compared to the general public and I feel that I have to make sure to put my brain out there first to defeat stereotypes created by bodybuilders like Tom Prince.  So many girls I've met have had their previously held stereotypes of bodybuilders and men crushed because of me, while guys like Tom Prince do nothing more than propagate those stereotypes.  He gave Gunter the Nazi salute in the BFTO 2002 - what kind of a person does something like that?

I think it was a guy who was always high on painkillers who was literally in a haze of nubain and additionally had never developed adequate social skills in his life.  :-\  No joke at all, I think that assessment is perfectly accurate and any psychologist would agree with me.

She's a fucking idiot also.

One thing to be not politically correct, but it's another thing to be a fucking idiot. Coulter is a sheep.. She says what she says as her idols shift their views. She is not even a true conservative.
