I actually had some time off today because of a
massive ice storm and got a chance to check different
reviews and quotes. It was actually quite fun and relaxing.
I do not agree with everything said in these quotes because
bodybuilding is subjective. Never the less, I think everyone
will find these quite interesting.
Will start with Peter McGough and a quote he made and notice
he mentions 1999 and not 1998.

1ST RONNIE COLEMAN
5'11", 287 POUNDS
At 245 pounds last year and coming too close for comfort to losing the title, the posTHortem then was that Coleman was too light. So in a variation of the adage "be careful what you wish for," he came in at more than a full, and I do mean full, 40 pounds heavier than his harum-scarum win of 2002.
His thighs were enormous, hanging over his knees like two bantamweights clinging on for dear life. His back went on forever and given Jay Curler's flatness, a sixth Sandow was never in doubt. Having said that, although his back had oodles of separation,
it lacked the depth and dry crispness of his '99 Olympia and '01 Arnold Schwarzenegger Classic Showings--the latter being, in my opinion, his best-ever presentation.
