Mr. Olympia - TONIGHT TONIGHT TONIGHT

Is anyone going to be watching this?? If so, are you going to be gracious enough to give us a rundown and play by play etc???

I've been keeping an eye on most of these guys over the last few weeks and almost everyone is in incredible condition......

Pre-Judging shots - some strange call outs from what I can tell - Dexter and Jay both look really good BUT Ronnie's got them again from what I can see...

Im pretty sure its not on TV this year. Considering that complete garbage production it has been for the last 3 years it is no surprise. The only way to watch it is via webcast, I will pass on that one. I will post results as soon as I know them.

From what I am hearing, Ronnie WILL NOT win this show. Supposed to be in the worst shape he has ever been plus a torn small lat. We shall see.

That's what it looks like - his midsection is terrible and he has some other small issues BUT you can't underestimate his clout with those damn judges...

I was looking through the pictures from the link above and Dexter looks incredible IMO....

You can say that again - and they're charging a pretty penny for the webcast - wtf...

That's kind of disappointing. I mean, no doubt Jay looked great, but it's disappointing to see someone like Ronnie lose because he wasn't 100%. And I don't like Jay as much anyway.

That's just it though... I didn't think he looked 100% either. Cutler deserved to win.

Cutler came in at the top of his game and Ronnie didn't, you're right. When Ronnie comes in 100% though, nobody beats him. Not even Cutler at 110%. That's why I'm a little disappointed. Jay was kind of winner by default because the best wasn't able to show up at his best.

b. In the 2nd photo comparison, same comment as the first. The individual striations stand out on Ronnie bis and tris... Jay's are smooth...
c. The only photo comp where (to my eyes) Jay is better than Ronnie is in the 5th pair (back pose).

And I think whether Ronnie was 100% or not relative to past years is a red herring, isn't it? The question is - did he bring enough to defeat everyone else at the 2006 Olympia...

Now, I am clearly missing something because nobody here seems to have a problem with the results, so I would appreciate a tutorial on what aspect Jay was better at to warrant a win.
