Compare this Years Top Six to...

[NarcissisticDeity]

other than placing 15th all the time..

no one is denying the greatness of Beckles or Taylor.

but like I said, you are comparing apples to oranges here.

Like most other things around here, you just lack the basic common sense and intelligence to see it..

Hey idiot what part of being second best in the world didn't you get? and we're NOT comparing apples & oranges you dummy we're comparing ages and how guys looked at that age , you're using Ronnie's AGE as an excuses , I pointed out many guys a LOT older who didn't look as bad as Ronnie .

[Hulkster]

but you don't understand. (gee how rare)..

you can't just look at age and physique without looking at competitive history, success rate, gaps between competitions etc etc.

you really are not that smart. if you did you would quickly realize that you are comparing

apples to oranges..

Most are TOP 5 and top 10  placings how that?  EIGHT PRO WINS the gap in between years competing ONE YEAR 1974 he was MUCH OLDER than Coleman and never looked half as bad as Coleman , so moron DO NOT use age as an excuse because its NOT ONE

[Hulkster]

wow. he placed near the bottom of the top 10 in a million grand prix shows.

like I said, apples to oranges..

[NarcissisticDeity]

Hulkster I know what you said and its still proven dead wrong , you're using Ronnie's age as an excuse for his appearance and its NOT an excuse did Al Beckles look as bad as Ronnie at and even older age? NO you're proven wrong , stop crying

Ronnie Coleman looks like garbage and its NOT because he's 43 

[brian36]

Is ND always this annoying?

[NarcissisticDeity]

Is ND always this right?

yes 

[Hulkster]

Is ND always this annoying?

yes.

stupidity creates annoyance.

[NarcissisticDeity]

yes.

stupidity creates annoyance.

No being right annoys people 

[Cap]

One of the reasons that these guys suck at the Olympia compared to the 90's is that the top 10 requalify and can just prep for the next year.  I know this is no excuse for Jay but for a lot of other guys this is the case. 

Secondly, they need to actually worry about how they look as opposed to how much of an insulin balloon they can become.  Everybody had to catch Ronnie and this is the end result.

[IceCold]

ronnie's chest, abs, thighsweep, delts all downhill..

but he is 43. we must not forget this.

you are so pathetic.

you act like someone forced ronnie onstage while he looked like that.

most pros have the sense to get out while they still look good.

by the way, ronnie never beat dorian or never matched his shape throughout his career.

by the way, why such a difference in pictures from the 99 olympia?

[Hulkster]

by the way, ronnie never beat dorian or never matched his shape throughout his career.

keep telling yourself that.

you and two others are the only people stupid enough to insist that.

and those pics are from 98. and his 99 shots looked just as good if not better, fucking idiot:
