Chick, you know it is a rhetorical question.   Asking a rhetorical question over and over again doesn't gain you any debate points.

Everyone knows that I have no relationship with the NPC.  I'm an outsider.  That is not a bad thing.   I have never claimed to have insider knowledge.   I don't need insider knowledge.   I don't want insider knowledge.   My arguments are not based on insider knowledge.   And most importantly, having insider knowledge is meaningless if you're not willing to use it to support your argument.   

"Trust me, I have insider knowledge, but I can't tell you about it."  is not a compelling argument, especially when used to tow the company line.

CHICK

Why cant we avoid all this squabble and kiddie sht and just get down to business and stop with the insinuations and mixed messages and hidden meanings.  Say it LOUD AND CLEAR.  What is the official stance on this?  Are amateurs going to be allowed to compete or not, without penalty of expulsion?

So your argument is based soley on your limited knowledge, no inside info, and being a self admitted outsider.....sounds credible to me.

stick to your website and updating files...

I've already stated MY opinion on the matter...loud and clear. I have no official capacity in the NPC, so I won't speak for them.
If you're a NPC athlete and wish to continue competing as an amateur..I would highly suggest not competing for prize monies offered in ANY non-NPC sanctioned competition...

for all others....go for it...I think it's great.

Why would a pro compete in a show they advertise as amateur?

wouldn't it be a hoot if the NPC USAs had to be postponed a week or two (for reasons beyond anyone's control)
leaving the B&A as a stand alone event -

No.!!!
I talked to Lee at the IronMan and he is a really nice guy,we never talked about any kind of Guest posing.However I offered him a booth for free but since the letter for Pro's got out,that they are not allowed to even have a booth at our show without being punished,we just let it go.Lee is a great guy!

I'm not "damning " his show...believe me...Ben will do just fine without a single NPC athlete entering. There are plenty of BBers to go around.

I've said from the start, i think it's an awesome thing for athletes that can do the show...all the luck to Ben.

I think Bob is in a difficult situation,he might like the idea of our show because you can say what you want,I think he is a Bodybuilder at heart but he also gets paid by the IFBB.
