What the hell is going on with Flex - suddenly the guy's talking with an accent or something  ???
Yeah, it's a variation on a 'cockney' accent, it's called a 'cockhead' accent

I have never been a fan for him, but I am becoming now .. Branch totally deserves his 2nd place.  :)

I think Dexter was lucky to get 3rd because both of Phil & Kai were off during Pre-Judging where the results were taken..  ;)

I don't know I would describe Branch's forearms as twigs, but they aren't huge like lee priests or Dorian yates, but there comparable too the majority of the field.  Huge forearms are like calves, few and far between.  Ronnie Colemans forearms were never impressive, and his triceps were fairly average too.

Everything has a place, and everything in its place

Ditto, Branch is a true champion. Very Dorian-like in his application.

Lets hope he continues to widen his back, improve his shape.

Branch is unstoppable.

Waller
Mentzer
Dickerson
Vince Taylor
Cutler

all had/have equal or better calves

Obviously you don't know how to "spoke" yourself there, big guy..

Props to Branch on a great placing though.

Branch was robbed - Great Interview! Branch quote of the show - "They reward all the pussies". how's Flex at the end of the Interview calling Branch "Branch Wheeler" That Flex is so self obsessed, he has trouble forgeting about himself for even a moment. As for Dex, he is highly overrated - too small and no calves at all - Dex hasn't improved in five years. He sulked like a little girl when handed third place - in-gracious loser.  He should compete in the 202 class, he would only have to lose ten pounds and he would make the weight.  Way too small to mix it with the big boys.

Your last sentence makes no sense. He beat ALL the big boys last year, and beats nearly all of them every year since 2001.

I did n't put too much thought into the list

I would add Matarazzo and Yates, though

Erik Fankhouser .. turned pro in 08 I think. Known for his lower body as well as his horrible teeth. Very pleasing shape imo .. ask google for some pics.

Arms look good to me.  Yeah, forearms are behind but arms are fine. 
Guys like Heath have unbelieveable arms but his arms and shoulders are out of balance with his chest/torso...so it can go both ways.

His belief towards his god is working for his core conciousness and it made him extremely confident.
Good job.

nobody caught Dorian walking by in the background with a FINE ass chick @ 1:20!

WOW!

Anyway Branch really comes off as really cool and has alot of confidence. He doesnt come off as some dumb meathead. He seems to have that inner drive like Dorian did, I tell you what, this sets up a Cutler vs Branch showdown next year, I got a feeling Cuts wants to go for #4 and Branch wants his first real bad now that he got a second.

he knew he was disrespected the past year for not getting ample coverage...you hardly heard about him...he was given no hype...and he showed them

I gotta tell you...I was so upset when I saw Branch take 2nd...but honestly after I saw that interview, I can't help but be upset that he didn't take first. That dude right there is the real deal...legitimate and humble  8)

I dont know what everyone is going on about, his arms are huge and way better than dorians when he was winning Mr Olympias.

  That first picture is actually kinda shocking. He has Atwood-esque rectangular shape and looks to be bordering on stage 1 Palumboism.
