Newsflash dude, Jays waist has been thick for years. He lost on shitty conditioning in the prejuding. He didn’t replicate his previous size in '06, or his conditioning in '01. But hey, I don’t expect the writers here to pay attention to how the contest went down. I mean, no one here wants to look like any of those bloated fuckers that lack real world strength anyways right?..
And with the rest of the lineup (minus Jay), I don’t think anybody can complain about blocky and distended waistlines, out of shape/near heart disease dudes and all that shit…

The fact that it was even covered is a step in the right direction.
Yeah, finally! It’s about time pro-bodybuilding actually resembled perfect physiques. Jackson and Henry are awesome. Maybe this will change the tide, and the waistlines, from now on.
I’m wondering if all the chics in attendance were commenting on how gross all the bodybuilders there and that they wouldn’t dare speak, date, or fuck any of 'em!
I think its a great step too! T-Nation used to have a lot more bodybuilding content. Who remembers Nelson Montana’s and Ron Harris’ articles on here?
I used to love Ron’s articles. I still read the ones he currently puts out in MD and Ironman. A bodybuilder who writes for guys like us. His “A Bodybuilder is Born” articles in Ironman, although being simplistic (what a concept these days), are valuable and would do world of wonders for average wannabe or aspiring bodybuilders compared to some of the pseudo-scientific technical shit out there.
Agreed. I was really happy when I read that. I’ve always been a big fan of Dex and was hoping he wasn’t going to be another one of those bodybuilders that goes his whole career without winning Mr. O.
With Wolf, Heath, Freeman and Anthony all placing well, I hope this really opens up the field in the next few years and gives us some interesting future Mr. O contests.

Goddamnit, I keep thinking “Tucker Max” each time I see your avatar.
Do you get as many “low-IQ, but hot anyway”-chicks as he does?
I guess TC can hire some BB guy again, now that we have a Mr. Olympia who actually looks great and aesthetic and whatnot.
