Arnold and the Olympia - did he have a viewing party?

[dantelis]

Since Arnold doesn't attend the Olympia most years, do you think he watches the event online with his bodybuilding cohorts from Gold's gym?  Wonder if he also posts anonymously on the BB boards and if so, which user on Getbig is likely to be Arnold?

Its highly likely that the Oak is just as disgusted with the state of bodybuilding as we are.  And curious.  So maybe he watched and then, like most of us, barfed his guts out for awhile.

Except for Wolf and Sleepy, the Olympia was a pretty much a total waste.  Like it usually is.

yeah, he spoke his mind a while back about the sorry state of modern bodybuilding, but the judges chose to ignore him anyway- you know just the greatest bodybuilder of all time doesn't know what he's talking about

1973 or '74 Arnold would wipe those clowns off the stage. Look at what he did to Mentzer, imagine what he'd do to Phil Heath.

Why do you suppose he let Branch win his contest? He publicly ridiculed Dorian's shitty aesthetics, and Warren makes Yates look like Reeves.

Does he have any say (as one would think), or is it 100% on the judges?

[dantelis]

Perhaps we should start a petition to put arnold at the head of the IFBB.  He cold give back to the 'sport' he loves by bringing it back to equilibrium.  Change out the judges for every contest to make the voting more fair.  Mark down competitors with obvious guts and make the vacuum pose mandatory.  Ban synthol and ban those who use it.

A step in the right direction for a dying "sport"

I wouldn't have a problem with 'em giving it to Rhoden, Cedric, or Dex, flaws and all. Just to make a statement.

I suspect it was the judges and now he's made his thoughts clear.   If judges won't come around because they're too busy coming in their jeans, fire 'em all.

Yes, I am really disgusted by what became of  bodybuilding.  It started with Yates but Haney shouldn't have won as many Olympias as he did (Labrada was superior on at least a couple of occasions), so the schmoes have been schmoein' for quite some time now.

Time to clean house.  They should start by flushing the toilets.
