Author Topic: Whatever happened to Phil Hill or Gunnar Rosbo? (Read 33693 times)

Later in his competitive career, Rosbo developed a pinched nerve that caused one side of his body to atrophy slightly, kind of like Chad Nicholls said happened to Jay Cutler, except that in Jay's case it wasn't as apparent as with Gunnar.

Classic, if getting stomped means placing 4th at the NOC, 3 places behind Phil the Thrill's Victory qualifying for the Mr. O my Rookie Year!
Then placing 13th out of 28, one place behind Phil at the 88 Mr.O
Now should we even talk about what happend after that? $:-\$
One year on the Pro Scene, does not make a Pro Champion.

Shawn: 90-01 Top 5 Mr. O, ASC Champ, Ironman Winner
Phil: 88 NOC Winner- 89-90 Career Done..........after failing to bust a Grape in the 1990 NOC

Can you hear the Tumble Weeds rolling in the wind..........
So, Phil after you wont the NOC, tells us about the rest of your competitive career as a Pro...............(Crickets-Cricking and Frogs Churping)

Shawn, you were the better pro, obviously, but the point can be made that you didn't really "stomp" him until later on when both your careers were said and done. By the time of the 1988 Olympia you were on a similar level.

You're missing the point here, slim. You said he never recovered after losing the overall to you at the '87 Nationals, yet the following year he STOMPED YOUR ASS at the NOC, and again best you at the Olympia. What he did in 1990 is irrelevant. In direct competition, Phil Hill bested you 2 out of 3 times. Read it slowly... it'll begin to make sense.

And "Stomping one's ass" is defined by winning 2 out of 3 competetions in ones career??? hmmmmm then Gunter stompped Ronnie ?? Cormier Stomped Ronnie ?? Lee stomps.. cormier ?? when i last checked there were a HELL of alot more than three shows in a BB's career...( Hi Phil....)
