Price of corn in china... someone sarcastically said there would be rioting if poor judging occurred. I agreed, but reminded the poster that 25 years later, they're still talking about 1980 mr O, and remembered that just last year, the judging at an IFBB show (masters Pro) was the talk of the boards for weeks - something that usually doesn't happen unless, of course, the majority of people believe it was fishy.

IMO, many of the pro cards have been going as 'rewards' the last few years. But that's just my take, same as when I say that I think Omar's legs are not pro caliber.

And Bob, you're forever trying to belittle the fans who do not attend events. Many of us like the sport and follow it but don't see the return on flying across the country to see a show. Does that mean we aren't entitled to an opinion, unless we were one of the 12 people there?

You're entitled to your opinion as anyone else is...but I'll put a little more stock into someone's opinion that was there, watching the show LIVE, over a few pic's on the internet any day of the week. There is no comparison to being in the first 5 rows...

And while I do enjoy getting under Chic's skin (the guy calls me names and makes racist claims, while I always keep it at respectful argument level), I would applaud his name just as loud as I question it - should he step up for the IFBB guys and work to ensure they can earn more money outside of the IFBB.

Chris Cook, for one.

That's your opinion. Don't agree but okay.

You said many... who else?

Chris Cook was rewarded??

With what...some less than stellar placings in the shows he's competed in this year?

There was no question he won fair and square to earn his pro card...in the two previous attempts at the USA's...he came out on the short end of the deal (and rightfully so), failing to get his pro card...

You make no sense.

Lee is a good guy, the thing that makes me laugh is how the magazines and websites try to make him seem like this controversial figure when the worst he does is pull out of a contest here or there or makes a harmless comment, you would think he killed or raped someone the way people talk about him.

VERY WELL SAID I could not agree more good post sarcasm

If you would go to an NPC or IFBB event, you'd see how much support Chic gets. At USAs there were contstantly pros and others talking with him. He may bust your balls on here but talk to him in person and you'd see many people go to him for advice and he always speaks his mind. Whether or not they agree and act on it is their problem.

Rules are rules and if it says you cannot compete or judge or guest pose at other than IFBB events then that is the RULE and I am sure Lee knows that he is just trying it on.I believe chick when he says he has done what he can everyone knocks him and the IFBB but Rules are there if you don't like it join another organization.And as for Chicks Pro win you take what you get nothing compared to Arnold 1980 Franco 1981 and a heap more like I said if you don't like it go elsewhere.

Lee just feels this need to purposely BREAK the rules so he GETS the shaft and then he gets more publicity from the magazines. Watch...he'll get denied to compete in the 'O' and in the next MD Magazine the cover will have the title...'Lee Priest: Unleashed' or 'Comming Next Month...Lee Priest and his thoughts about being denied to compete in the Olympia...the untold story and the TRUTH'. That'll run for like 6 issues and we'll have a picture of him flipping the camera the bird.

It's all about publicity...Lee is a drama hound in the same category as Cormier. The only difference is Lee doesnt have a psychological dependence for his cell phone. Lee calculated he wouldnt be able to compete in the IFBB if he jumped ship...he did it for the gossip, the talk, the buzz and to create controversey. He's as about as controversial as fkn Bob The Builder or Mr. Rogers.

Agreed it's all about sales $$$$$.The only person who cares about Lee is his MoM.

Everyone is nice to bob because 1) Bob has power and influence in the sport, and 2) he is in manion's pocket.

I have my experiences with Bob. He threatened to hospitalize me for posting a parody 2 years back. He called me a racist for posts made by someone else, then never apologized for it when evidence showed it clearly was not me. He has insulted my work, my websites, etc. He acts like he's above people. Of course, those with something to gain from him will side with him. But I've seen the real side of him - IMO, Bob is a selfish man, who likes the power of being athletes rep, a lot more than the duty that comes with it. Insulting Mustafa, belittling lee, and agreeing verbatim with the IFBB rulebook - this does not help the athletes earn more power and income. Plus the whole online threats of CC info abuse using BBing.com sales data...

Just my 2 cents. Everyone is entitled to their opinion, and I know many will disagree.

So which is it - Everyone is nice to bob or "he should step up for the IFBB guys and work to ensure they can earn more money outside of the IFBB."

With your logic every pro bodybuilder has something to gain from him and will side with him, since.. "Bob has power and influence in the sport, and 2) he is in manion's pocket. "

Of course many will disagree...thats because:

I absolutely threatened to hospitalize you, no argument there.

It was never proven you WEREN'T the one posting the racist shit...only that it MIGHT have been someone else...given the circumstances, I'm sure it was you.

Your work speaks for itself...no comment necessary.

There were never any online threats of using CC info, that was proven by yourself posting my response...only YOUR lame interpretation of the facts.

THIS is why people hate you.

Hope this helps.

Many are nice to bob because they haven't seen some sides to him. Others believe he can personally help them advance. You've seen some guys on here sucking up to him no mater how wrong he is on topics.

Look, nothing against him, but I think he's treating Lee like crap here. He says he's neutral, but can't get near a mic without bashing DeMilia. He said on the radio he was fighing for Don, then said on here his job was to 'protech don from himself'.

Honesty is all I want. I'd rather deal with a prick with whom I disagree, than a nice guy who talks out both sides of his mouth.

It was never proven the pope wasn't the one posting racist garbage. But you didn't accuse him. Only me. And after I offered to take a polygraph and put $10k down, you declined. If you're that sure, why not bet, Bob?

The pope never alerted everyone on THIS site to it...I'm pretty sure the Pope's ID wasn't identical to the one postingthe shit..

You aint got $10K to lose...let's face it.

end it, already.

I don't have a racist bone in my body, and I offered the bet under any circumstances of his choosing. He declined.

Bob was shitty enough to throw around racist accusations because I have an AOL IP address, along with about 50 million other people who operate out of that same IP block.

Blockhead · « **Reply #43 on:** July 31, 2006, 04:58:09 PM »

Rob...you know you're my guy on here, right? You know I respect you and your work...

Bob? I don't have anything against you...you are/were always cool to me when I bumped into you a handful of times at shows. I even had the waitress bring you and Phil whatever you and your party were drinking(thinking it was liquor or drinks etc...) but it was coffee at Knuckles in The Hyatt for JRNats...you're alright I can give a shit about the deep politics in this game but uh...

You two should get married! You two fkn argue and bicker and nag at eachother more than me and my soon to be ex wife does...

Holy Schnikes!!

People don't forget. They're still talking about the 1980 and 2001 O. Rusty Jeffers' name is forever blazed into our minds as the guy who got screwed at the show bought by BBing.com.

People can talk about 1980 and the 1981 Olympia and the 2006 Master's World Champion all they like and cry about it for all they like....

However....

Arnold is still the Olympia winner in 1980
Franco is still the Olympia winner in 1981
Chick is the winner of the Master's World Championship.

Rusty Jeffers wasn't even in the mix. He looked great at the night show but he should have remembered to look just as good at the morning show when it counts most. He was as flat as a pancake and that's why he was 8th

Everyone always complains about the winner in EVERY SHOW EVERY FREAKING TIME FROM NPC SHOWS TO IFBB SHOWS!!! It never changes.

Welcome to bodybuilding, 240. As far as Chick goes, people were complaining about him winning long before he even took the stage and it was expected that people would be crying foul. But the plaque still sits somewhere in Chicks house and I'm sure he's already spent the money on another watch for his collection.

BTW, Chick. What kind of watch did you get this time???

Of course you want me to end it. My "ID"?

After being explained how the AOL IP proxy block worked, you responded with something about it being mumbo jumbo. You dismissed the very evidence you used to make a horrible claim. If you had apologized, or asked Ron to remove the thread, I would have gotten off your back months ago. But you had to be right, even when the evidence, and my wallet, were prepared to prove you wrong.
