I think Jennifer Searles would make a great supreme court judge.

totally unfair to every other girl that competed in past pro qualifiers and won their class that did not receive a pro card because they did not finish in the top of the overall voting.

Why the heck was it "Raining" pro cards last night?

How can you not even win your class but yet still "earn" a pro card.

Just an insult to past great performances by other figure girls who won, but never got caught in a Pro Card Hurricane storm like last night!

12 freakin' pro cards? what were they smokin?

Imagine how great figure/fitness/BB'ing could be if instead of arguing about who should have placed higher, people argued about what kind of healthcare the organization should provide, and how to help the girls actually earn a living at it...

Just a thought.

Maybe a "professional" athlete should mean these girls actually earn money from this, instead of losing it?

Nice thought. Go watch SICKO and see how a guy who lops his fingers off has to decide which one he can afford to put back on.

I have a personal aversion to rich 300lb fat white guys telling me about the moral excesses of big business in America for some reason. Maybe it's just me.

Yes, it's just you.

What difference does it make who's telling it if the important issues of are day are being handled in a thought-provoking manner in his films?

I guess it's the same reason I never bought into Buddhism. A 400lb guy telling people to avoid earthly excess just isn't my cup of tea.

I think some of those photos on your site might have been the poor choices you are speaking about.

My favorite's are the all nude Brian Moss ones. If I have them blown up to glossy 8x10, will you sign them for me?

those were very hot IMHO

My guess is that there is a shortage of competitors in the pro ranks, and some fresh meat is needed who will operate at a loss for a few years before getting fed up.

When a top competitor like the lovely Ms. Searles retires in her prime, it's an indication that the time, effort and financial considerations of competing in figure aren't worth the rewards.

Hi, Jennifer. Aside from the NYC July humidity, I'm fine, thanks. Hope all's well with you.

On the bright side, I got my figure pro card! A Nigerian guy was selling them for $5 in front of Bloomingdales.

Brian Moss is a great photographer... and wonderful to shoot with. He really knows how to capture a great photo with minimal "props" (wink wink). I'd be happy to sign one for you

LOL... that's awesome

Thanks TL... I felt like it was the right time to retire... I was getting burned out, and with so many new faces coming in, it would have been more and more difficult to maintain my position.... I do miss the whole process of preparing, oddly enough, not to mention the thrill of the stage. BUT, there comes a time when you gotta bow-out gracefully. It was definitely my time to do just that. The girl seem to be getting younger and younger... and I, ahem, am not
