LOL.
You fellers are really hung up on ole' dumb-assed Phil
It's not without good reason, though: he is easily THE whiniest, least insecure, most full of utter SHIT of any Mr. Olympia winner to date.
I know the Internet's "evolved" since the days of Yates and Ronnie -- one of whom, according to Lee Priest, wasn't smart enough to even play about on the 'net since, y'know, he was still struggling with his Speak and Spell
-- but jokes aside, can you imagine Dorian or Ronnie getting riled up over something said here, Facebook or anywhere else?
LOL. They both know they're the GOATs, so I reckon not. That Phil keeps on as he has speaks to a deep-seated insecurity -- and not so much about him "winning" contests as of late, but something deeper in his psyche.
FWIW, when Phil is at his best, I think he's a decent, even good, Mr. Olympia. I forget the year he impressed that English gent, the one who, if Getbiggers were given a reprieve, the man nobody could call "fat"; nonetheless, Philinsu, err, I mean, Mr. Olympia Phil Heath DID present an amazing physique. He was cut, complete and all that other good stuff. Kai was literally spilling over with muscles but he was also watery and "off" by IFBB criteria.
Insofar as "wasting lives away," maybe he's right. Maybe I am "wasting" my life away enjoying life with my fiance, watching "A Game of Thrones" and sipping champagne, while he's "doing 'legs'" to defend his precious title. Personally, if I were Phil, I'd be working very hard with the powers-that-be to alter the judging criteria such that Ramy and Kai wouldn't stomp my ass to little bits come the next show. I dare not imagine what that would entail, but hey ... maybe someone else will, with a smile and puckered lips
