Bob,

If Lee gets suspended then he'll be an exclusively PDI athlete for the rest of his bb career... how would that help the IFBB?

What the IFBB will do... (if they're smart) is fine Lee exactly the amount he won at the PDI show, to be subtracted from future purses (or to be made up by doing free guest-posings on behalf of the IFBB/Manion)... thereby keeping Lee in the IFBB and discouraging the top tier pros from defecting without any confrontation or legal issues.

Well, that's the advice the IFBB should be getting from their advisers... assuming they have a 140 IQ guy (like me) working for them. Time will tell how short-sighted/well-advised their actions will be...

Support him by doing what, exactly?



Support him not getting suspended maybe?

You're an "Athlete's Rep" right....not an IFBB rep....right?






I think this is what everyone see's.

The above is what will happen Bob... assuming a least someone at the IFBB is competent enough to operate heavy machinery.

....and your point is what?

The IFBB will continue, it doesn't live and die with Lee priest, or any other single athlete.

Lee doesn't like anything about the IFBB, so why is he so insistant on being allowed to compete there?

He is free to go and compete where ever he wishes...PDI, NABBA, WABBA,etc.

If he wants to compete in the IFBB, he has to abide by the rules set forth...simple as that.

Bob,

Don't you mean if he wants to compete in the IFBB he has to abide by certain rules... but not all the rules...?
Unless the Olympia is going to be steroid tested this year? Of course the testing will take place after all the gay-for-pay and porno athletes are suspended right?

What career?????  Bashing me is one thing, but jesus christ...It is a fact that Lee is one of the greatest bodybuilders of all time.

WTF?????? I mean seriously, how many shows has he either won, or been in the top 5?????

Plus endorsements and such????

Let's not start with this bullshit again. The rulebook is a farce, but the fact remains that it's very fvcking clear the IFBB doesn't want it's people  competing in other federations. That is one rule that will always be enforced,like it or not.

Just a thought Bob....

but I would think the position of the "athelete's rep" is supposed to support the athletes in a fair & unbiased manner.

I can see where a lot of guys wouldn't want to be the rep because their selfish to begin with & don't give a shit about others.

But when you defend the "machine" over the athelete's themselves....it gives the appearance as something being corrupt.

Shawn and Bob,

Please don't quote pieces of my posts just to jab for cheap laughs... that's the reason there is so much resentment against you guys on this site... what's the point of having bodybuilding pros and industry insiders on a public message board if all they do is avoid the serious (and earnest) questions raised by the other members?

Why not address some of the topics I've raised rather than trot out glib jibes?

Maybe I missed something, I am a fairly intelligent guy, but fail to find the huimor in my statement.

To even suggest Lee is anything less than one of the greatest is absurd.

Lee a honest question, bashing aside. If you hate the IFBB so much then why do you want to compete at the olympia. Just wondering :-\
