Nobody has mentioned Arntz yet- he is a perfect example of the dimple-ridden blonde haired badboy good for mag sales. Hope he jumps.

I don't see how Arntz is a bad boy. He really doesn't seem tough at all.

Actualy it is worthy to note that the IFBB has not made any comment on the standing of the new federation PDI, so bearing that in mind under current IFBB PRO RULES , you can not alighn yourself with any competting federation , this means you can not even be in attendance at a NABBA show if you wished (for that i am gulity), so if the PDI does become sucessfull it will be intresting to se if the IFBB re evaluates these rules to accomidate the loss of top draw cards the likes of Mr Priest and the others that will be there , but i dont think they are looking at this yet , it would by my guess that the IFBB is sitting and waiting to see how this all pans out , this being a move usally attributed to being conseated, but when they realise that this all may just work , you can be assured they will try to muscle in on the compettion some how, that is called bussiness !!

Ive seen IFBB pro athletes at NABBA shows

Obviously they cant 'guest pose' or anything but I didnt know they wernt even suppose to attend??

what about chris, branch, jay, gunter, ronnie, gustavo, dex the bigger names what does the insider say about them

Branch is the new golden boy. Jay, Ronnie and Dexter are making bank. Gustavo has quickly settled in nicely near the top. Gunter is Weider's golden goose, already making lots more than the guys placing above him. Chris is toast, almost 40 and on the downswing. Martinez is the heir apparent except for his criminal record. Darrem another Weider guy who can pick up checks at smaller shows. Dennis James a wildcard who thinks he can be Mr. O. There's your top 10 IFBB.

Maybe I'm missing something. Isn't the total prize money in each of the PDI shows like $30k? Isn't that like the Ironman's purse? So how is he going to get rich in one $30k show, but not the other? So you're saying he's guaranteed to win all three PDI shows, but he never took home any money from the IFBB shows he's competed in until now? WTF?

That is interesting. The Ironman as been around for how many years and the PDI has just started and they are matching IFBB contests that have been around for awhile. The actual cash in the Colorado Pro isn't much more

Re: colorado pro...my money says anyone not making the top 3 there ditches the IFBB. Lots of 2nd tier guys doing the show...only top 3 can recoup their expenses. Lots will feel gypped.

But is PDI allowing athletes to secure other lucrative deals...I also assume Wayne isnt contracting 'PDI' athletes to not compete in IFBB sanctioned shows either, so perhaps more opportunities to compete can offer more $$

Eryk Bui should join the PDI . . . once the PDI hits Asia, he's going to be a superstar.

But then again, his IQ might be too high . . . kidding . . .

Unlike Insider Z/Nostrodamus, I have no talent for seeing the future.

Looks like a good show to me. Of course I wouln't pay money to see it or any other bodybuilding show.

Good point. The DEA, NFL, ACLU, and God knows who else will be all over us.

There are far too many posts about people threatening to beat each other up. I much prefer the ones where we just throw insults at each other, More intellectual :-)

I'm sure you're wrong, Keith.

I can't see putting out a poster without having commitments from the athletes.

That would be asinine.

You're crazy, Keith. Just crazy, man.

If that's what u think of the poster, I'd hate to hear what you'd think if you saw Shawn's old physique promoting a company that wasn't in existence at the time his photos were taken.

That's why Shawn decided to retroactively use Vyotech supplements during his Olympia run.

also why has shawn got a photo of himself on the poster from when he used those terrible steroids?aren't they a sin now?

benchthis · « **Reply #98 on:** April 04, 2006, 10:40:05 PM »

and according to lucius fox helped him earn 12 top 5 finishes

Exactly. And I'm sure Shawn will find a group of athlete of equal caliber quality to replace the, what, 13 names, that have pulled out.
