Here is the entire e-mail exchange with Jay, read it from bottom to top.

Jay-
I'll write once more and then I'll let you be, I know you are a busy man. I guess I wasn't aware of your status after prejudging, I know that tends to be where the contest is won or lost. And you need to know that shit-kickers like me who've hardly got one show under their belt really have no business telling you how it is. I'm 27, work 50 hrs/week, raising two kids that aren't mine, and I think I got it tough, but It can't be anything compared to your lifestyle and commitment to your profession. You spent the whole year preparing for one show, I can't begin to understand that kind of commitment. My point is I hope you don't get discouraged by some idiot fans that don't support you, they have no idea. Have you been getting flack from the fans or have they been pretty good? I want to sincerely thank you for making me feel like I'm having a conversation with you. It's an honor. What are your plans? Are you eating all the cheat foods you've been craving this week? Are you gonna take the whole year off again or will you do the Arnold? Once again, sorry for assuming too much and judging too quickly. you got my support brother.

Jay--
I've seen a lot of haters on the chat boards, and I don't want to sound like one. I think you looked great, and If they insist on playing Ronnie's game, you had him beat. Not sure I've ever seen your hams shredded like they were, and the back double bi was untouchable. I'll keep an open mind, considering I wasn't in your shoes. And also, these e-mails really do say a lot about you as well. Thanks so much for the response.
