TOTAL OWNAGE OF BOB!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :o

Hey Bob didnt the same thing happen to you at the masters!?
-

What humiliation was that?
-
hhahaha! I agree!
What is it with these Shannanigans! WHat is this mess!!!???
I dont like that shit.
Me either! OMG!!! I had no idea this was going on!!! I think bodybuidling has become too gay for me. Oh! The humanity! :'(
Monster Gay Strip Club
I wouldn't be caught dead in that club! :-[
This looks like something from one of those over the top gay parades. Which is where it all belongs... everything has its place . . . but in a bodybuilding show? No. :'(

Dan and I go through about 5 safeguards and checks with each guest...In 50 shows, no one has ever failed to call in...until tonight. Lets hope nothing other than a simple reason is behind the no-show...
The show still went on, as it always will....

Surely you and Dan can coordinate an interview still? Its not like we need to be there, just have Dan call him (your people get in touch with his people) and get you on the phone , talk for 20 minutes with ronnie, then record it, have it as an item on the site??? I dont understand whats so hard, I imagine the people who sponsor all of this know this is a big Olympia advertisment ? Or do you think that he is that much in his 'own world' where as he does what he wants, doesnt live up to obligations and is a 'diva' in his own right? The only other thing would be some unforseen event which God forbid, prevented him from talking to his fans about the career which he has amassed.

Bob,
Two of the people on that PDI stage were IFBB athletes which you represent.
Why would you insult something they're involved with? Would you come on the boards and say that so-and-so works at a shitty gym, or that so-and-so had a failed business?
Why would you say negative things about something that puts money in IFBB athlete pockets?
Why do you continually shoot these guys in the feet when they're just trying to make a damn living?
-
There had to be a good reason, as this seems out of character for Ronnie. He definitely loves bodybuilding and the fans.

Exactly. I've brought up this very point before. The interviews could be pre-recorded...... ::)

What about Manion Bob.....has he recovered yet?

Refresh my memory, but didn't Bob pose for some Gay Army pics?
-
Wait till you folks see my outfit..... ;D

He did a military shoot for a popular mens magazine, i believe.
I don't think it was 'gay' as you say. From what I've read in COLT, military men typically fight shirtless and oiled up. Better aerodynamics and more passionate warfare.
-
Bob looks huge in those pics :o
Its funny that rhino said he could beat him onstage

If they're on a PDI stage...they're not athletes I represent.
There can be a lot of things that put money in athletes pockets...doesn't mean I have to endorse it, or agree with it for that matter.
If Wayne wants to adopt the same gameplan that buried the WBF, thats up to him...I would have thought he was smarter than that....
-
Man, Lee needs to lose those red boots, they are the gayest thing I have ever seen.
-
I don't get why everyone is constantly trying find shit on Cicherillo and what he does on the PBB.
All in all, I think he does a good job.
He's too much trying to be friends with everyone, too polite, bit of a kissass, but he's got what most people don't have - media personality. He's got it.
Cicherillo and Solomon do whatever they like, but I definitely believe the show would lose a lot if it were pre-recorded. It's common knowledge in radio, pre-recordings make you lose a lot of edge.
Hopefully they'll keep the same layout, they definitely needs to have back up plans when it fcuks up though.
Fcuk ups can make for great radio.
Cicherillo just needs to stop being a fcuking nice guy, having love for everyone of his fellow Pro's. Needs to start the bad cop routine, stop the good cop.
That part of Cicherillo isn't just lame, it's terrible.
In short - In with Andy Sipowitz.

I shouldn't be surprised you "read" Colt magazine, but I've never shot for anything but BB publications....
The army pics were taken by David Paul, and all proceeds from the 8X10's and posters were donated to the Red Cross for the families of the 9/11 tragedy...
BTW...my pics were taken for a charity cause...just what were your shirtless/ gun pictures for again?
Any more comments, Jackass??
-
Wait till you folks see my outfit..... ;D
Mr Hanky??
-
If they're on a PDI stage...they're not athletes I represent.
Are you saying that you no longer represent Lee in any capacity?

i don't know about all that bro...But those pictures alone could fetch a ton of female tail....Chicks melt for shit like that...
-
"... Mr. Hanky?... "
I prefer Towelie. Anybody wanna get high?
-
I shouldn't be surprised you "read" Colt magazine,
With friends like you have, ya sure you wanna talk bad about COLT?
I did a photoshoot for a "Colt" calendar, not the magazine. I was 28, and it was about a week after I won the '97 Nationals.
Yes, the pics were nudes. I was alone in the pics. I don't see how naked pics of me alone, makes it "gay".
I've had 100 WOMEN say they saw those pics, and every single one that commented on them, was complimentary. I got paid $3000 for a ONE DAY photo shoot, and at the time, I needed the money. If PlayGirl had offered that kind of money, I would've shot with them, too. End of story.
Hate to sound vain, but I think my body looks goddamn awesome in those pics. I was 255 pounds, and about 4% bodyfat. That's 15 years worth of work, and I'm proud of that.
Now you know the truth. Judge me all you want.
-
I'm not ragging on it...ask 240, apparently he subscribes.

No, Bob.
Now, are you going to answer the question?
If they're on a PDI stage...they're not athletes I represent.
Are you saying that you no longer represent Lee in any capacity?
-
What about Manion Bob.....has he recovered yet?
That flu of Manion's has gotta be like a world record or something!
-
With friends like you have, ya sure you wanna talk bad about COLT?
At least he got paid for his photo's...you post naked pics of yourself on Getbig for FREE.
-
Bob, since you'll comment on anything and everything, including Cormier's health insurance and Vince's bank balance...
Does your unwillingness to answer whether or not you still represent Lee Priest serve as proof you're a lil skerred to answer?
-
You know I gotta agree with Chic here , not to keen on the costumes , I mean where do you draw the line here , I thought the idea of the free posing round was to show your body off in the best possible way you feel appropriate to you to gain some points from the sitting judges, by the looks of things the costumes detract and do not allow the judges to see all of the physique !!
Its not a fashion come wearable art show !!!
-
Bob, since you'll comment on anything and everything, including Cormier's health insurance and Vince's bank balance...

I'm waiting for you to answer why you insist on posting naked pics of yourself on a mens BB website?
-

Just for the purpose of clarity are you saying you took those gayass G.I. Joe pictures for charity? You made a mockery of U.S. Soldiers so you could donate money to the families of the victims of the 9/11 terrorist attacks?
Please excuse me while I take a moment and laugh my ass off.
Sorry, I've recovered enough from my laughing attack to mention that your reasoning is the stupidest thing I've ever read.
Oh boy, Chick does a homosexual G.I. Joe photoshoot and uses the 9/11 victims as an excuse for doing it. If it wasn't so laughable it would be nearly criminal. ::)
-
I'm trying to think of any pro sport where the athletes wear costumes...

Funny how you see them as "homosexual"...
-

HAHAHA
Dude, you no longer represent Priest but you are afraid to admit it.
Hol-y crap.
I thought for sure you'd find a diplomatic way to address it.
But you left his ass cold the minute he did a PDI stage.
Wow...
-
Funny how you see them as "homosexual"...
Funny how apparently you don't.
-
Funny how apparently you don't.
I guess people see what they want to see in a picture, huh?
-
Playing dress ups for pics is one thing but on stage.WTF looks like a gay party.Who would want to see that crap.?????.
-
It seems that everyone that was in the finals had some sort of costume at the NOC....Does anyone know what Rhino's was going to be?
He must have tried it on the night before to make sure everything was a go right??So he must have a bunch of pictures with him in it....
Lets get him to post some up...
-
I guess people see what they want to see in a picture, huh?
I think a better way to put it would be "I guess people don't see what they don't want to see in a picture, huh?".
Do you often deny the obvious or do you only deny the obvious when the subject is yourself?
-
Those Pics of Chic are very very good pics , he looks fantastic , cheeeeeze guys sometimes you gotta put your jealousy aside and give credit where credit is due , regards hrdcor

Rumor has it Wayne will hold next year's NOC on October 31st so he can claim he's not pandering to the fags, he's just "in the holiday spirit!" ::)

Oh...someones denying the obvious here, allright. Getting claustrophobic in that closet?
-
Yes, he was dressed up as Claude Rains...
-
It was a fat suit but he forgot to take it off oooops.

I applaud your attempt to deflect the attention away from your homosexual G.I. Joe photoshoot for charity unfortunately it's not going to work.
I'm curious what the percentage of homosexuals that bought a picture from your homosexual G.I. Joe photoshoot for charity was compared to the percentage of heterosexuals that bought a picture from your homosexual G.I. Joe photoshoot for charity.

If it's any indication, BayGBM bought a dozen of them!
-

LOL
-

I just had an epiphany, you're absolutely correct. You know, looking at these pictures that 240 posted I don't have any idea why someone would think the G.I. Joe photoshoot for charity had a homosexual theme to it. All the footage I've seen of soldiers over in the Middle East they all were shirtless, shaved and tanned. In fact after looking at these two pictures again I can't differentiate you from a real soldier. ::)
-
Yes, he was dressed up as Claude Rains...
Taht was good.....real good....
-
Well...being that 7 out of 10 people that bought them were WOMEN, I would have to disagree with your assessment.
That being said...it seems you're fighting some "issues" that you might want to work on and come to grips with. It's OK, really....
-
Regarding Lee Priest - you keep asking that question (also Valentine Jabes) if they will be suspended. Obviously they will be. What do you want Bob to do now? Jump, scream, yell? Lee did what he thought was right to do - so the next step is to see if there will be a suspension letter, then the next step to see if there will be a hearing, a response from Lee, etc.
You are correct when you say it is out of Bob's hands right now...
As for the pics - you guys may not like them, but was the show entertaining? The pictures make look funny, but was that evening round entertaining is the question. You purists - go the the prejudging where it is all serious and shit.
-
Holy shit...it's the VILLAGE PEOPLE!!
Didn't they get booed of the stage at the Olympia a few years ago?? Wayne never learns...
Yea he learned alright. From every account at the shw the place was very loud and energetic. What IFBB show is ever like that anymore. The Olympia barely gets a yell here and there. SOmeday you'll learn Bob. BB is boring as watching paint dry. From what everyone has said is the show was awesome. Doubt you'll learn anything from it.
-

Glad someone got it....

Entertainment is one thing...as anyone who's ever read my stuff will tell you...I'm all for making it more exciting.

Yea you would think that uh? No advertising in Flex and M&F, no advertsing outside of the New York except for MD and here. Yet he packed the place and it was fun and energetic. While the IFBB continues to go downhill with the Olympia and other shows. YOu would think they were smarter than that.........
-
I'm trying to think of any pro sport where the athletes wear costumes...
Figure Skating, football, baseball, basketball, hockey. Now before you call them uniforms (except skating) if I remember right when I was a little kid at halloween my costume was a football uniform and the next year it was a hockey uniform. ;)
-

About 1300+ people apparently. And from what I hear they all enjoyed it. And I bet as a competitor up on stage its allot beter hearing people yell and scream and clap than the silence you hear at most shows. Just a hunch

Packed the place??
You can GIVE away tickets to just about anything and people will show up...clearly not indicative that it was successful, if anything, indicative that it wasn't...if there was interest, they would have SOLD more tickets.
-

Actually, Bob... you CAN give away every single ticket and still have a successful show, provided you earn $ in other ways. And as we all know, many businesses run in the red for the first 12-18 months. The PDI is a new business. If they choose to operate at a negative cash flow for a bit, what business is it of yours? Many great businesses will struggle for a bit while winning over their fan base and loyal customer list.
They're new and cannot yet sell 1500 tickets.
Does it make you feel "bigger" to point this out, even though it's a normal part of many business operations?
-

Intersting numbers. Are these the actual sales numbers. 10 pics sold isn't something to brag about. :D

Well at least prove you don't knwo much about promotions and marketing. They give away tickets to the military every year to the Olympia. No one shows up. They are free. There weree posts about last years Olympia on here that said not one seat in the military was filled. The Colorado show gave tickets away. How many showed up. Son, you want a full house at whatever means you do it. Especially your first show and with the press there you want a good showing. And who knows how many tickets he gave away. You don't. So no matter what hepacked the place and it something IFBB shows are having a hard time doing. Now you put down BB shows too. INteresting how much you campaigned that the NOC won't happen and nowit has you back peddle and grasp for straws. Dude give it up you lost the battle. Now concentrate on the war. You'll end up losing that to but you could put up a good fight.

See here is the problem. It's not your idea of making it more entertaining. So far all your ideas suck. teh Olympia has been worse each year your have been the rep. Maybe your ideas and the IFBB's are wrong. Obviously they are. The biggest BB show in the world is boring as hell. How do you explain that. A splatter of clapping and thats its. allot more booeing than anything else. You want to see a show that gives you goose bumps. Go to an all military show like at Pearl Harbor. That show is energetic beyond energetic. If dressing up gives the show some flare then so be it. Cause your way sucks. And you can't argue that.
-
It's not my show to make it more entertaining...I'm not the promoter.
NEWS FLASH, Keith...the athletes rep isn't in charge of the Olympia.
Are you stoned...?
-
Need more traps in those army pics bob
-
Is it just me or do the NOC pics look like a village people reunion
-

I agree....That looks embarrassing like a bad male revue
-
Who cares.. only 1500 people got to see it anyway. The rest had to wank off stills.

Not only that, but in one shot he's groping some dirty chain he found on the ground........
On the other he's squatting down....why? Who fucking knows.
Nothing gay about those pics.
Folks, we have a new Getbig term.
We've all heard of Gay-4-Pay, we'll, let me introduce you to Gay-4-Charity......... :-X

No I'm not stoned. I'm full but not stoned. I was making a statement meaning the IFBB not you individually. Chic you need to call me. I left you my number.

damn chick you beat me to it!!!! ;D
-
Wait till you folks see my outfit..... ;D
These ones?
-
The costumes looks stupid, and rather gay IMO. I am all for livening up shows, but not in such a manner.
As far as Bob's army pics, although I also found them to be a touch fruity myself, I can totally see how women would like them. Most women find Bob to be very attractive. I think in the context of the calender they probably looked less fruity, and the whole calender for 911 fundraising is definitely a nice idea.
-
I hate to intervene here but there was an issue of Muscle and Fitness that they did a special about meathead military personnel and on the cover were two enlisted Marines that were dressed just about like Chick is in those photos. When you say you don't see any military dressed like that, you may want to do a little more homework because that day they did.
-
Those PDI pics are friggin hilarious hahahahahahahha some of these costumes were too gay for words...that last pic of the janitor has my sides splitting!!!
-
Is it just me or do the NOC pics look like a village people reunion
All that was missing was Kenny Jones in the mix with one of his "costumes"....
Seriously, I think Lee's infatuation with being Superman has gone to a new and scary level. Those trunks and boots are belong in some drag show.
-
And some people wonder why bodybuilding has not "took off"
-
A Midget in a cape and pretty Red Boots doesn't remind me of the Real thing ::)
Only looks like a dude dressed up for Halloween :'(
Can the outfits, you didn't learn anything from Tamali King?

This is good, this can be a money maker. Considering the theatre was so close to Broadway, the home of all great theatre, maybe next year it could be PDI Night of Champions, THE MUSICAL. What do you think? This could be fun, some great ads in Variety, a little popcorn at intermission. Maybe a magic show and a comedian to open the show. This will elevate bodybuilding to a whole new level.
-
Packed the place??

It was their first show ever, i would imagine they would give away alot of tickets in order to get more exposure since their new..
-
I remember that military pic shoot in MuscleMag a few years back (I believe it was MM)...there were a lot of pros doing it...and that the money was donated to charity, well...anybody who wants to burn on Chick will have to do it some other way, cause they're just owning themselves!
As far as the joke PDI, in 'concept' the 'entertaining' night show was a stretch...something you'd see at musclemania. But I just don't see how the guys posing in silly costumes make the posing round ANY better, or more entertaining for that fact. It DOES work for fitness chicks, tho... ;D
Bodybuilding is what it is. If you don't like the concept of a prejudging and night posing routine, then I guess you don't like bodybuilding. There's not much you can do to 'spice' it up, other than turning it into a WWE thing...which has ALSO been tried, without much luck.
The only REALLY exciting thing in bodybuilding are when the 'naturals' get on stage...that is, the NATURAL winners...guys like Heath! When you see new guys battling their way up, when they're IN SHAPE and kicking ass, that's where it's at. Second to that are the comeback guys, dudes like Gustavo.
To key to get the sport to grow lies not in the funky costumes and other schemes like the challenge round....it lies in actively changing the judging standards to ensure that MORE younger guys with the right genetics get into the sport for the long haul. Those new guys DON'T because of the mass drugs needed to compete at the highest level, and they (rightly and intelligently) DON'T bother competing.
Just look at how many teen national champs actually continue in the sport, hardly any...and I'd guess that by that point they're already experiencing the side effects of the drug regimes they're doing and saying FUCK THIS to any long term route in the 'sport'.
You want BB'ing to grow, Chick?....I honestly think THAT'S the only way.
-
Are you stoned...?
Is that an invitation?
-
damn chick you beat me to it!!!! ;D
Yeah me too, that shit looks pretty fucking GAY!! I mean what the fuck, how intertaining do you really want to make a fucking MALE bodybuilding contest? We don't want to turn the shit into a fucking strip-show, do we really want to see guys in g-strings dancing around with costumes on and slowly taking that shit off - I would feel like a fucking fagg sitting and watching some shit like that!!! Fuck that let them flex their muscles to some toons and call it a fucking day!!

I got paid $3000 for a ONE DAY photo shoot, and at the time, I needed the money. If PlayGirl had offered that kind of money, I would've shot with them, too. End of story.
I always loved this quote from Tom. Somehow, "needing the money" is a good enough reason that nothing else need be considered. Also, he must have been very certain about his position, since he said "end of story", at the end..of his story.

i really cnat belive some of these guys. what is goin thru their head in the 12weeks up to the day of the show?? "oh i cant wait to reveal my indian costume all the girls are gunna go wild!" they have a few months to contemplate that decision and for the life of me i cant belive they go thru with it. its public humilation. ps layne norton has a very gay hannibal lector routine on youtube.com and its even funnier cuz he looks like shit to begin with ahahhaahahah fuck u bob ( but i wouldnt never do gay shit like that unless I GOT THE MONEY) so basically u embarassed yourself and got no dinero, fag

A Midget in a cape and pretty Red Boots doesn't remind me of the Real thing ::)
Only looks like a dude dressed up for Halloween :'(
Can the outfits, you didn't learn anything from Tamali King?
Ive never been the one to try and question someones religion. Ive read countless
posts from you and think to myself "y" would he stoop to name calling and verbal
attacks. Even if you are getting attacked verbally I would think you would turn the
other cheek so to speak and ignore it due to the fact that its really out of all our
hands, and if you know the "truth", god will be the one to throw down the hammer so
to speak... Church is full of hypocrites and i would assume you are one too, but my assumtion is my assumption and im not one to judge. I have nothing against you at all, i just thought this might open your eyes a little....

thanks all of you for associating homosexuality with tacky tasteless costumes and boring shows. Your right homos have never designed any beautiful clothes or put on any great shows, they are talentless when it comes to that....HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA AA.
Everyone that lives in NY know the best clubs and the best shows come from the gay talent in NY. Everything they create here is copied by the world. If Wayne had hired just one talented gay designer maybe the concept, costumes, lights and everything else would have been top notch and state of the art. The reason the show was "gay" was because it was created by a bunch of straight morons who dont' have one ounce of creativity. I have news for you...that was one straight show.

Yeah we know we are calling it straight gay, there is a difference. Not really homo, but kind of

Show those pics to anyone straight guy and they will all give you the same answer.

exactly because they all have no taste, and are brutally unaware of who controls art and style. Do you think any gay designer/director would put a show like that on? You need to get out of the midwest son. The entertainment part of the PDI show was an epic heterosexual train wreck.

One thing that I think would make BB more exciting would be a "teams" competition. I noticed when I went to the military shows on Pearl Harbor how exciting and loud it was. Every competitor had a hugecrowd supporting him. The Marines, Army, Navy, Air Force and even the Coast Guard all had cometitors in the show. When one of the fellow military men was on stage their group went crazy. I mean it was awesome the support they got.
I think they should get a team competition going between supp companies. Have a Muscletech team, Vyotech, VPX, Metrx etc. Then they could have theirown routing section. A special "team" prize can be given to the wining team too. More money. Maybe each team has to put in $10,000 or so into a pot and whatever team wins gets to split the pot. It might make the whole thing more exciting.

The whole idea of dressing up and anything like it HAS to go. That does not make it a better show for the crowd. In fact, it is embarrassing to watch. Just have a bodybuilding competition with unbiased (as much as possible) judging and good athletes and you have a winning formula. The bodybuilding world doesn't want the other crap!

Can't say at 34 it's still cool.

Actually, Bob... you CAN give away every single ticket and still have a successful show, provided you earn $ in other ways. And as we all know, many businesses run in the red for the first 12-18 months. The PDI is a new business. If they choose to operate at a negative cash flow for a bit, what business is it of yours? Many great businesses will struggle for a bit while winning over their fan base and loyal customer list.
They're new and cannot yet sell 1500 tickets.
Does it make you feel "bigger" to point this out, even though it's a normal part of many business operations?
So when an IFBB show fails to turn a profit its a failure, but when a PDI show tanks it's "all part of the plan". you guys are funny

I agree with Onlyme that bb contests are usually boring. I agree with Chick that costumes are probably not the way to go.
Will Chick ever post here as himself instead of as his official position in the IFBB? His opinions and posts are now totally predictable.

Dear Abby:
Let me get this straight...
If a bodybuilder dresses up as G.I. Joe for a photoshoot for no money, it's cool.
If a bodybuilder dresses up as G.I. Joe for a contest to win money, it's gay?
