Yeah. It took me awhile to actually get on because of a cookie problem at my end. You'd think I had those figured out by now. I got here because someone on another board, who looked damn good, showed this as his homepage. It said "
[email protected]" under his name. I thought that was his email address. Is it more of a promotional motto?
So you know who I am, I'm a national-level judge for NABBA/USA & I have press credentials for IFBB (US), NPC national-level, and NABBA/USA.
In my spare time I run East Coast Muscle. I had to let that slide in the last two years because I work for the State of New York. Since 9/11 the state's tax base has dropped (the World Trade Center was full of financial & stock companies), so 5,000 state workers were let go. That left the rest of us with plenty to do. I was going to yank East Coast Muscle, but noticed the stats were still going high. We're bantering back & forth with the websites of the largest industry print publications, & we get more traffic than the website of any sanctioning organization ... globally. So I decided to bring it back to life this year. I didn't realize our readership was so high until the first two web-hosting companies I tried to move to turned me down because they couldn't handle our volume.
I'm now exploring the possibility of covering some pro IFBB & NABBA shows in 2005 or 2006 in Canada, Europe, & Australia/New Zealand.
If any of you already know me or know of me, please PM me. A pic would help. If any of you will be at shows I'll be covering for East Coast Muscle, do likewise. So far, I'm expecting to cover the following NPC shows:
- Teen, Collegiate, & Masters National Championships
- Junior Nationals
- USAs
- Nationals
Those who will be competing at NABBA shows (I usually judge shows in NY/PA) can introduce themselves to me after the pre-judging.
Anyone feel free to PM me with questions about judging criteria, physique assessment, or posing.
Thanks for the warm greeting!
