if kai competed in the 90's i dont even think he would crack the top 10

bodybuilding right now has the lowest quality of competitors ive ever seen.

Kai is as much a philosopher as any self-help book out there. He uses the "thoughts become things" mantra, which is copy from a popular book title "Thoughts are things", written by Bob Proctor. Same principles that were in the famous book/dvd The Secret, and the book Think and Grow Rich by Napoleon Hill.

Death knell for his career? Or biggest opportunity of his career?

He's receiving so much attention right now. A savvy marketer would really know what to do with this moment.
Do kai or his people possess that level or savvy? Conventional wisdom says there is an inherent limitation to how famous the world's top bodybuilder can get. He defied that conventional wisdom partly because he's not officially the world's top bodybuilder. His social media followers really exploded following the line stepping incident. Kai has 1.1m followers, while Phil has 978k as of today. Not being allowed to compete could turn Kai into a legend.

Imagine the reaction of Phil when Kai gets three-four times as much followers than him on Facebook, and ten times as much attention, by NOT even being in the Mr Olympia competition!

But but... I'M MR O!

Everywhere people chant "KAI GREENE! GRAPEFRUIT POWER!" wherever Phil may roam.

Even Dynamik commercials playing on the telly constantly.

Would eventually drive Phil insane.

Would be great to treat my family to a Fred Smalls show

Given the way the world is going, it wouldn't surprise me if the grapefruit lover was awarded for his bravery in the face of his mistreatment by the IFBB.

Will be regarded as a "Hero" just like Bruce Jenner much to the dismay of Phil Heath!

With all the philosophical bullshit that Kai spews, he has definitely set himself apart in terms of likeability. All he has to do his set up some seminars with the title, "The Philosophy of Bodybuilding" and see the thousands of people sign up for it.

They sure would. All of his marketing moves have been excellent so far. He has the people on his side so milk it for all its worth!

He is doing the O.

...want to rethink that?

Al Doggity · « **Reply #61 on:** September 21, 2015, 01:26:05 PM »

Anyone feel like Kai fucked up? Phil was clearly off, so if Kai had showed up in comparable shape to his last few O appearances, would it have been impossible to deny him? Or is Phil just the IFBB's golden boy who will never, ever lose?

INSTAGRAM UPDATE:

Phil's victory post has received 50,000 likes as of this posting, the most likes either Phil or Kai has ever received for a post (even exceeding the 30,000 likes for Kai's recent tearful breakdown video.)

I think people are ready to move on from phil. He got booed and people walked out when he was announced the winner. Hopefully he acts better on social media this year but he even mentioned haters in his victory speech so I imagine he may get even more annoying and then everyone will start trolling him.

I think no matter how kai showed up, he would not have won. I also think it's time to start spotlighting some of the new guys. I tell you what: Shawn Rhoden, Big Ramy, Bonac, Dallas mccarver, Steve Kuclo, and some others are starting to gain more fans and supporters which is great. All of those guys have great personalities and really make you want to cheer for them.

I think 2016 will be good bc the newer guys really established themselves this weekend

They would have denied him. No question about it.

ps - and you make fun of me for stalking their FB account, Mr. I am monitoring how many likes they get.

This ... I mean look at our mr o

Two over sized arms on a middleweight torso
Worst mr o ever

No, I made fun of you for accusing me of being secretly gay because I started one thread about a football player's new house while ignoring the irony of your obsessive, ongoing social media surveillance and daily updates of your ragecrush Phil Heath. When Heath shutdown his instagram account I was so worried about you, but I didn't send you any PMs because we would have just gotten into a week long battle over who was trolling who.

I think the last two years' version of Kai were better than anyone competing this past weekend. I think the case would have been way starker had he been there. All of the pretenders competing this weekend had weaknesses that could arguably justify a Heath win.

I have defended him a lot, and I think he looked amazing for several of his O wins, but he really was the worst looking Mr. O this past weekend. I don't know if it's just that time to hang it up or if he's letting the online nonsense get to him, but he was OFF. If he plans on competing next year, he needs to just log off and grow up. I know he tried to grow into the show- I don't think he ever started out in such mediocre shape, though.

I thought he looked bad but for me Jay Cutler is still the worst looking Mr. Olympia ever.

I didn't even know he shut it down. I guess I dont check it as often as you think I do

. I check his FB more

He shuts down the haters more on FB.

I dont think the IFBB would give it to Kai. I also dont think they will give it to Big Ramy until he learns how to speak better english. Part of being Mr. O is promoting bodybuilding throughout the world. You cant do that if you cant speak English. I bet it will weigh against him.
