Title: A request for 240, please respond
Post by: ag2 on August 03, 2006, 01:31:35 PM
I am curious as to how many different things you have gone to war over with Bob Chic, how did the feud start? give us a brief summary, Did you ever get an apology from him from when he accused you of spamming certain message boards? and did you ever apologize to him for making him meltdown numerous times?
Sincerely,
Peanut Gallery member :P

Bob and I see the issues differently. And we both like to argue. That's about it.

From some of Chick's posts it appears he hates 240 with a white hot intensity. Hasn't he threatened to kick your ass a few times too? I'd say it's more than just liking to argue and having differing points of view.

I think he once criticized him for having a last name that wasn't easier to spell.

Well, the discussions go where they go. I like to keep it about the issues. Sure, he's made some incorrect accusations, sure he's threatened me, insulted me, but i don't take that too seriously. The most important thing is that he's made his positions on the issues, whether it be PDI, rule enforcement, or prize money distribution, crystal clear for all to see. With so many politicians taking both sides of issues these days, if we can get chic to speak his mind on things, we can have some real discussions.

The dude comes across as a mean bully, he is a good bodybuilder and a good radio show host but that about it.

Now that we have some views on this...
what about giving the top 50 active ifbb pros a $10k stipend to live on, along with a $5k per year retirement contribution. Then slash prize monies significantly.
Guys will stop the extremes, and you won't have a Ronnie earning 450k a year while Toney Freeman earns zero.

Ronnie earns 450,000/year? I thought it was more, is the highest earning BB?

it's been rumored to be 375k to 625k, I don't know the actual number and I'm sure it varies yearly.
But there is such a huge discrepency between what the top Bber and the 25th best Bber in the world earns, even though they're taking similar short- and long-term risks. This is why I think making the money closer would give the guys a stronger financial future, would eliminate some of the shady behavior (even 10-15k a year helps with the fixed bills!) and would eliminate the suicidal behavior that some guys exhibit to finish "in the money".
