The Columbus Dispatch -


The semifinals and finals of the Arnold Classic bodybuilding competition, which took place in March, will begin this weekend on the Outdoor Life Network.

Yeah, but this is how it starts. Don't you want more BB contests on tv? If so, support it by watching the Arnold Classic. Heck just turn the cable box to OLN and leave the room if you want. :)

Part of the problem bodybuilding is "so in the closet" is becuase even people who like it dog it! We all should be glad that at least BB is getting some TV time here regardless of when the show took place.
