1. PHIL HEATH
2. DENNIS WOLF
3. DEXTER JACKSON
4. KAI GREENE (GIFT. 4 AND 5 SHOULD BE SWAPPED. THIS IS THE YEAR THEY BEGIN TO PHASE KAI OUT OF THE PICTURE).
5. SHAWN RHODEN (DESERVES FOURTH).
6. BRANCH ***
7. RAMI ***
8. ROELLY WINKLAR ***
***6, 7 and 8 can really go any way. Let's see how Roelly recovers from the injury (for O standards) and how he is conditioned on the day. This is crucial with him. Let's see if Rami can control his diet at all. Let's see if Branch can keep up. In my book, Branch is the best of these three, however Roelly has the most potential, and it wouldn't shock me if Rami actually slips to NINTH.

I don't view Rami as being top five. Not even close. He looks like a blow up doll; very little grain; horrible flow; legs look AWFUL from an aesthetic perspective; good delts; maybe in a couple years he'll be up to no.3 when Kai is phased out and Dennis is up there in age. He's never winning an O though, Never.
##
I don't believe anyone can challenge Heath for the next seven years. Honestly. He is so far above and beyond the competition at a relatively young age, with confidence, and clearly intelligence, because he busts his ass off and cycles smart (as in he does not blast all year. he actually grows into his shows, he is the antonym to fat Rami, the poster boy for insulin-hgh-igfLR3 abuse and mega doses of gear, all year, most definitely. Look at his head. His offseason shape. His off season weight. It's all very disturbing for a 5'9'' guy (he's not 5'11'' btw).

This olympia is going to be awesome. Even though the winner is pre determined (and rightfully so because he is the LeBron to Arnold's MJ if the ifbb was the nba--yes i just said Heath is the 2nd best of all time), as a purely heterosexual fan of the sport, I believe it's an art still. And heath is the FIRST competitor since Nasser and before that, more so Dorian who I believe was in the modern day size game era, yet still made this sport look fucking pulchritudinous as in, an art form, no white towels, no cum involved.
##
I wish they would ditch the man thongs and go back to the trunks that Arnold would wear circa 74 etc'. It would make the sport look so much better. Also, and especially for the white competitors, the pro tan has gotta go.
They didn't do that shit in 74-80 when this was EPIC, and they should go back to the roots and continue the size game. Just change the trunks, increase the revenue stream by appealing to the heterosexual and female demographic who currently finds the sport cultish and weird (which it appears to be, but smart fans don't give a fuck because it doesn't change who we are. I am straight and a fan of BB. I don't give a fuck what anyone has to say about the sport, because their confirmation bias is tantamount to stupidity and their genetics simply hold them back from realizing it. They lack the will power to understand. As Gal said, part of Genetics is will power. It's not all physical. Because as arnold said, while you are partying, someone out there is getting smarter, someone out there is getting better. The later two are will power. Perhaps the first is born with superior physical genetics and higher IQ. But he's lazy as shizzo. The later two win.
This concept is also applicable to the placings in the O (except for #1 and #2 which I guarantee everyone are going to be Phil then Dennis. It's time Kai gets phased out. I always call top five in olympia correctly and last year I did, and I base part of it on politics. Kai was GIFTED 2 last year, and he will be GIFTED 4th this year when he truly deserves 5th place, right ahead of Branch. But not even that much better than Branch when you look at the entire physique. But politics plays into this.
Thoughts?? or are we ALL going with 1. phil 2. kai. 3. wolf and for those who have 4 . Rami, simmer down and i hope all your utensils are platic
