2006 PDI / X-Treme challenge expo canceled
« on: June 14, 2006, 08:52:13 PM »
For anyone that is interested....

It has been brought to my attention that the '06 X-Treme Expo (The James Goad/ Wayne DeMilia venture)...has been canceled. I assume this would also mean the "PDI" qualifier is canceled as well (just a guess).

Yeah, Chick is completely neutral here.

Chic, did you use your time machine and travel back to June 12, when Wayne announced this himself?

For Immediate Release
June 12, 2006
PDI also announced a change in the scheduling of two of the Amateur Pro Qualifiers. The Western USA PDI Qualifier will now take place in the spring of 2007 the night before the PDI Los Angeles Pro event. The Southern USA PDI Qualifier will take place later in the fall of 2006 as part of a major MMA fight and expo.

The EXPO was just canceled as of this morning, Einstein....

couldn't tell you jack squat about the re-scheduling of the "qualifier"...as I don't follow the "PDI" saga.

1) It didn't come up in conversation...I simply let King say what he had to say.

2) no.

OK, in all seriousness Kamali was clearly looking to you for confirmation during the interview. He repeatedly asked for your approval of his points.

When he made the point about Rob going to jail, as a friend why didn't you just calmly say "well those are civil offenses not criminal so he can't go to jail"?

Wouldn't you agree then, that you spend a lot of time talking about something which you admittedly "don't follow"?

I've barely mentioned them at all, actually...

I wish Wayne the best of luck in his venture, the fans will dictate what they want to support..

I wish good luck to Wayne but I have to agree with Chick when he said that the fan base clearly isn't big enough to support 2 federations

I'm also interested in knowing how Chick felt about Kamali's assertion that all of Shawn Ray's top 5 finishes at the Olympia mean nothing.

Chick do you agree with your friend Kamali's statements about Shawn Ray?

But as a friend, shouldn't you have laughed and said something along the lines of 'shut up - you sound like an idiot' when King started talking about 240?

I'm all for free expression - especially on the internet - but it's as if everyone consented to let King have this major public melt-um-down.  

I'm sure he'll sleep ok tonite, but I did feel badly for the guy.

Chic, to tll you the truth you should not have said one thing.  It has nothign to do with BB.  This thread shoudl be deleted or at the least moved since it has nothing to do with BB.  I think everyoneon here can tell you wanted to pst it and was instructed to by your puppeteers to post it cause it has Waynes name on it.  And unless an official press release is given stating this then you have started a useless about nothing about BB.  I have to admite this make you look kind of bad and dumb.  Please delete before others see into it also.

I'm not sure if this is right but if it is.  It will prove obvious that the fans will support the PDI in the long run.  The fans are tired of the same old shit from the IFBB.

King has his own opinions...I have mine.

I agreed with, and stated FACTS...that is all. I didn't choose sides, nor did King expect me too.

I believe Shawn is one of the greatest BBers of all time...The fact that he only won 2 shows in that span is purely a testament to the fact that he CHOSE to compete in only the OLympia for most of his career.

I believe he could have amassed quite a few wins had he chosen to compete in the Grand Prix, Arnold, NOC, etc.

It's irrelevant, as history is what it is.

Keith if it's cancelled why can't he tell us about it?

I trust Chick when it comes to being up to date on info in the industry.

I still think he delusional about being impartial but thats another story...

I don't need a press release...I have email from THEM stating this.

It's as BB releated as it gets...don't shoot the messenger.

You're preaching to the choir, Shawn was an outstanding first tier bodybuilder for his entire career.

I'm curious why you didn't say any of this to your friend Kamali while he was saying it on your show. If I remember correctly Dan distanced himself from Kamali's assertions about Shawn Ray but you didn't.

Listen to the tape Bob, King expects a LOT from you which he shouldn't.

When he put you on the spot about shawn's 1 pro victory (which you correctly said was 2 initiallly) and then turned it around to mean nothing you should have stepped up and corrected the guy... As a co]host you should have asserted your opinion.

Better listen again...I (and Dan) started to chime in, but King kept going, cutting us off....I believe Dan then wernt on to another piece...

Point being, The show wasn't about me debating King on what HIS opinions of Shawn are...

BTW...what does any of this have to do with the PDI/EXPO being canceled?

Correct Dan saved you from having to directly challenge king's comments which EVERYBODY knows are incorrect (about the quality of shawn's placings and career not the man).

Lucky you ;)

I'm listening right now and Dan is saying that you have to count all Shawn Ray's top 5 Olympia finishes and Kamali is saying it means nothing and you are dead silent.

You didn't say anything, Dan is the one that spoke up.
