chic.....what do you think of this (taken from MD)??
I hate to say this but, despite being one of my favorite writers, John does sometimes get his statements wrong. There was once an article about the death of a bodybuilder name DJ Johns, and John reported it as JD Dawodu.
However, and I mean a big however,
Chick, has a hidden agenda of self preservation and promotion. Its his only chance to stay alive in this sport. As an athlete's rep he is suppose to have the athletes best interest at heart, but he doesn't. He has only his interest. His articles in Flex are both contradictory as well as self promoting drivel. He goes on and on about how atheletes should conduct themselves but he himself, has done many wrongs. Its much like the pot calling the kettle black.
His recent push to change some of the judging has done nothing to help out the sport and has left the athletes working harder in a much more depleted state. (coontinous callouts without changing the athletes does not improve judging).
Also Chick is underhanged, meeting with judges for dinner the night before he places 3rd at the NOC, and not to mention his win at that masters show.
He also belittles the women's side of the support suggesting the ifbb even distance themselves from the women because they drain the money from the mens side.
John may not always get his facts straight, but he is a damn good writer and far more interesting then chick will ever be.
Chick is just scum in my book. (snake in the grass).
