The Father of Modern Bodybuilding Joe Weider passes away and he gets 11 pages.

Nasser El Sonbaty, the Father of Selling Soiled Posing Trunks dies and gets 30+ pages.

What the fuck.  ???

That is all.

It's the surprise of Nasser's death that's driving it. Joe was old, and mostly out of the game for the last 10 - 15 years, aside from a few show appearances.

The other reasons is that the news of Nasser's passing came quite a few days before Weider's passing.  Hence, more pages.  Also, Joe wasn't doing well, was 93, but still the father of bodybuilding and a memorial sometime in April will be coming.

Nasser's untimely death surprised us all, for at age 47, and out of the game for years, as quite untimely.
