It's like a bad accident.. you can't help but watch!

First they bailed on their radio show with about 5 minutes notice.. let's see if it comes on next week.

Second.. still awaiting their Kai video series for the Arnold.. that is actually the only thing that is getting my attention to visit that place. I doubt it will be released as promised.. and far from "daily videos of Kai" as they claim.

Anyways.. would be nice to get some road to Arnold series here.. Dave did a great job with the real-personal inside videos like going over the Kai's house for his daily real-life routine.

:D

Robbie Durand does not know how to edit videos...so how can they claim to have videos to put up without someone qualified to do so?

It's hard to answer the question "what's wrong" when nothings right.

funny posted a thread over at MDabout 20 min ago regarding this very subject.....

just said its kinda weird not a lot of new posts and most of the new threads are by people who work for MD.....not a lot of community memebers involved? :confused:

i was only hanging around to see the kai video but it seems they can't even get that sorted.

i hope dave puts together some good videos like he did back on MD, that would be sweet

MD has NOTHING to offer us!

They will not have a good radio show, in depth bodybuilding contest coverage, interviews, videos. Basically, they don't have shit!

All they have is Steve Buttman with his finger up his ass and everybody elses that stays with MD!!

Well you don't bite the hand that feeds you, and in this case, it was Dave and John feeding MD. It's kind of a shame in a way because the mag was great before they fucked it by firing Dave and John.

I am sure Shawn and Flex will figure it out...who knows how it'll turn out...an inferior product is still a product...there are only so many radio shows around, and I need them all because I work long, boring hours by myself...

The only reason why I would still go to MD is because I am a fan of Victor Martinez. If it wasn't for him, I wouldn't care less about what went on over there. That said, they are VERY light on news about Vic's recovery and how he looks for the Arnold.

Yeah, wtf is up w/ that? Shouldn't they be covering their top athlete?

I will still read it for a handful of columns, but I'm not subscribing.

I told this to John. I used to read GV's column first when my Mag arrived every month. But John's dedication to the sport and his writing abilities drew me in like an addiction......Like Steves addiction to Vics Glutes lol. I couldn't wait to read John's shit. And I dont need to say what Dave's contribution's are.

John and Dave were the "NO BULL" brand. MD may still have the name, but John and Dave exemplify the words.

Was about to sign up for the $150 package...glad I didn't!...There was alot to love about the mag but I just couldn't take the 6 page ad, the 4 page ad..the every other fucking page is an ad...and the majority of the ads are complete bullshit that you just ignore them all together. Big thanks to John and Dave who have earned my respect and my loyalty!! Can't wait for the new podcasts!

I think the reason for putting off the radio show is exactly what Dave said on the show last night, they are finding out how much work is involved in doing the show and haven't figured it out yet. If they wait long enough it won't matter because there won't be anyone left there to even know when it is finally going to be on! :D

I wonder how long it will take for most everyone to make it over to RX from MD. I bet you within a year this will be the most popular bodybuilding site on the net next to bb.com.

they're too busy, writing articles about how shitty palumbo's diet is, to post videos and get their radio show going.

You know why the Titanic sunk? There were some very powerful people aboard, people who didn't want the Federal Reserve to be implimented.

Now, you and your entire nation are slaves.

Did you know the Federal Reserve is a private business? Did you know that they print money for the Govt.? They loan the money to the Govt at interest. If they printed the first dollar, how is it possible to ever repay them in full? It isn't. It's called economic slavery.

Different than traditional slavery, as in we feed and clothe ourselves, where slaves back in the day were clothed and fed for from their care givers.

Curt James
02-10-2009, 09:38 PM
power of the people,and the word of mouth,dave john get to have the last laugh.:D

Positive word of mouth for Dave, John, et al. and incredibly NEGATIVE w.o.m. for MD.

Heavy Muscle's intro talked about the truth. Well, MD's current strategy of simply erasing all negative commentary is the worst possible choice. Where's the truth in that?

And how do they expect to create any kind of trust by whacking posts, threads, and MD patrons?

Miserable imbeciles.

I'm a long-time subscriber to MuscleMag International and am glad to hear Jerry Kindela, formerly of Muscle & Fitness is working for Kennedy now. Heard Romano say they're knocking on his door, too. Would love to read some of his words there. Love the magazine, but their forum has been left for dead.

I was stoked.

Had purchased a hundred bucks of supps from the Cyberstore, got a free t-shirt, and a two-year subscription for a great price. I think I'll be paying, like, a buck sixty-seven per issue for the next year and so many months.

I won't cancel because I don't trust anyone at MD to be able to handle my refund accurately. They'd stop mailing me my issues and also NOT give me my money back.

Probably get an email with something like this as the contents:


Date you will get your money refunded: Never!

Yeah I'm not gonna take that risk either, I guess it's still technically the best actual magazine out there....atleast it's not Flex. But I definitely wouldn't have mailed my precious coins to the cumguzzlers if I knew this would happen

Yup, exactly what I was thinking.

I didn't think the additional audio stuff presented by Robby is very interesting. He doesn't seem experienced or proficient at interviewing, let alone radio presentation. He doesn't respond to anything the interviewee is saying but runs down his list of questions and that's it.

And the wrestling-commentary style to those audio shows... The 'supplement review show' which is just blatant advertising... I could go on and on.

I've got news for you... If Victor loses the O again he will leave MD.
