Mr. O 7th place.
Try a resurrection at next years Arnold and 'may' make a respectable showing, if the main players are not playing.

or he could show up at the O looking fucking sick and take 3rd, you don't know any better than I

I can see improvements...

New York Pro 2007: 3rd
Keystone Pro 2007: 1st

Mr. Olympia 2006: 16th
Mr. Olympia 2007: 5th
Mr. Olympia 2008: 4th

Gifted 4th in 08, as much as he was (admittedly) ripped by 5th in 07.

Very weak outing in 08 in comparison to 07. 'Improvement' only in a momentum -laced gifted placing, not in physique (by a long way).
Working with Nicolls indicates he is even more thick than he sounds.

here's the problem as I see it...

A promising young pro bber shows up looking unreal for a few years, and gets jobbed with the ole "pay your dues" bullshit.

Now as an "Established" pro, he wins the shows but doesn't look as good as he used to when he was fresh.

there are exceptions of course but this is what happens to a lot of guys

Wolf overrated as:

0 calfs

0 lower back

Weak biceps.

Takes full year offs and makes no improvements.

Ridiculous 'career' decisions to forgo major competitions like the Arnold, to spend more time making 0 improvements.

No momentum as a result going into this years Mr. O

His gifted 4th place of last year will be like a dream come September.

agreed

Wolf in 07 was 250 lbs. What was he in 08? 270ish?

Wolf is good not great.  Working with Chad to blow out his gut will make him a sure Mr. O contender.

I agree with everything you said 100%...the only good shows are the IRON MAN, the ARNOLD, and the OLYMPIA.....every other contest is basically garbage....and the IRONMAN is slowly slipping into irrelevance as well

Jay shouldn't "even" place top 5 in olympia
Silvio and Hide also very overrated

Underrated and will always be,even tho his physique is in my opinion what a bodybuilder should look like:
