Night of Champions info just arrived in the mail

I hope the PDI is a success and that doesn't mean I hope the IFBB fails.  I do believe that fresh air needs to be breathed into bodybuilding and that it will result in a change for the better overall.

What's PDI?  What a poor choice of name for a much needed new federation.  It conveys little information.  The line-up needs to be stronger to sustain those ticket prices for any length of time.  Vince and Lee are the only world class guys.  

The primary reason to go to a show is to see the limits of physique development.  The inclusion of gimmicks like Rhinos, acrobats, sword swallowers, gang rape and the like is just an admission that bodybuilding ain't up to much.  Having said that, the latter will be good - rather like in ancient Rome, hopefully some mutilation will also be included.

I'm not sure who put that together but I'm pretty sure it wasn't Charles Blake whose a talented designer.

Time will only tell.  I'm just giving my perspective as a fan.  Speaking of perspective, for $60 I could get great seats to see some of the best bands on the planet live in concert.  AC/DC, Metallica, KISS, Slipknot, Manson etc. all put on a huge production with walls of amps and non-stop pyro not to mention a killer live performance.  If the PDI is trying to get a new audience to attend it's shows, why would I give up my hard earned dollar to see a low budget (relative) production with only a handful of contenders and an obvious winner?  There's only so much you can do with bodybuilding to make it exciting.  I'm all for a change and a more interesting contest, but I just don't see the logic in such expensive tickets with the exception of proven large shows like the Olympia and The Arnold that consistently sell out.

Who's going to pay for the supply if there's no demand?

I bet you stick your girlfriend with the bill for the porncorn when you take her out of a movie.  60 bucks come on don't be so freakin cheep!

Porncorn?  Sounds like something I'd be willing to shell out 60 bucks for

BTW, it's wife.  And she'd rather go see AC/DC again than an overpriced bodybuilding show full of promises and two big names.  Judging by the attendance at the Colorado and Toronto pro shows, we're not the only ones

IFBB is a nonprofit org.

EXACTLY

Pro bb'ing is a joke, how can anyone be against the PDI even if it does nothing but give the IFBB a litte competition.

You can't be that stupid.  That is a flyer that is mailed out to over a 1000 BB fans.  Something the IFBB hasn't figured out to do.  Thats' called cheap.  I love the slect few who are hanging onto the sinking ship of the IFBB for as long as they can.  It's very amusing.

[lastrep]

There is my point again.. a simple flyer goes out months ahead of time to a few fans and is NOT the official poster, ad, etc. And what's the response??.. negative and bashing comments.

remember when wayne ran the Olympia and hired the fucking village people for the Olympia.


everyone has always bitched about bbing being boring and now you have the guy who ran the division (for those of you that bitch about the judges picking the freaks-wayne selected those judges) running his own thing with talent much less than even what the NPC has.

the PDI will be like UFC and IFBB will be like Pride.

AC/DC in the house.

UFC and Pride aren't the same thing?

I think UFC is the one I like then.

One of the best ways on the planet you could possibly spend your money is to go see AC/DC live

I think UFC is the one I like then. 

they are the same thing.  that's the point.  PRIDE has more money, hence better talent and better fights.  UFC always will take a back seat to PRIDE.  same thing will the IFBB and PDI.  people will always pay more money and pay more often to see the better talent.  that is if the PDI survives more than a year.
