well, usually when people lecture others about getting an education, they at least have an education of their own. I was wondering where you got your degree.

Chick · « **Reply #28 on:** February 21, 2006, 05:26:55 PM »

I'm not lecturing anyone...I advised him to look up the word "purse" and the meaning behind it.

I don't answer to you...you want to know my educational background...look it up yourself, you've obviously got spare time.

Get a life...

Purse: A sum of money collected as a present or offered as a prize.

Kudos to John Bailik and the Ironman crew for increasing the 'purse' to the Ironman Pro Bodybuilding by $10,000 from last year. They listened and they did good.

240, why are you hassling Chick about his education. The guy is well spoken, smart and knows quite a lot about the sport, business and many other interests. It doesn't matter whether or not you went to a university or not. As long as you wish to learn something, that is the important thing. And if he disagrees with you, then we have a conversation about the differences.

But to all of you that complain about the show's purse, why don't you step up to the plate. Why don't you come and support the show, the expo. Yes, a number of you did, which was nice to see and meet, but many of you sat home and did nothing but complain.

Instead of praising the Ironman for raising the prize money, (even one compliment), you bring in baseball... come on already...

Let's get some sponsors and get a nice *purse* together.

Even if I did take an asswhooping, it'd be worth a check.

And if I managed to win the match, well...

Stavios · « **Reply #38 on:** February 21, 2006, 08:16:00 PM »

Hell yes!

I'll put my MBA up, he can put his pro card up. Winner gets that, plus 75% of the sponsorship $ we can get together. Loser gets 25% of the winnings.

You game, Chick?

ARMZ · « **Reply #41 on:** February 21, 2006, 08:18:43 PM »

I'll call bodybuilding.com and see if they would like to sponsor it.

Stavios · « **Reply #42 on:** February 21, 2006, 08:21:23 PM »

Hell yeah, way to go 240 !
Sure, you will get your ass beat but you would be man enough to walk the talk

you betcha. I'd be 210 lbs for the fight, and I might lose, sure. But it'd be fun, and Bob would have the ability to "take back" bodybuilding for the pros.

And if I won... lol... fuggetaboutit... Chico might wanna consider retirement. The fans would never let him live it down.

hillbilly · « **Reply #44 on:** February 21, 2006, 08:31:50 PM »
