"more than a little pissed off"

Pick one and stick with it RAY

Just more of the pissing match. Blechman is worried about Rx's popularity, or that post would never see the light of day.

I'll always respect Shawn as a bodybuilder, but he did always come across like a whiney, slimey fellow. Did he manage to get through any of his articles at MD without badmouthing Yates yet? I stopped reading -lol

Since the firing situation, it does seem as though Shawn has no loyalty to anyone in the sport.

The common practice over @ MD right now seems to be a scathing attack on anything to do with John and Dave. I feel this only adds to the perception of desperation on MD's part, further reassuring their fear of the potential John and Dave have within their new venture.

Look carefully at who made that quote, according to Shawn:

"LEVIN LEVRONE"

Maybe that's KEVIN LEVRONE's Jewish cousin?

LOL... I think its ammusing how MD makes a mountain out of an ant hill when it comes to John and Dave. From the firing and how that was handled and now this.....

Unprofessional at best!

Just got off the phone with Dave:

He and Kevin had already spoken about this before Shawn posted this up. Dave and Kevin Levrone are on GOOD TERMS. Shawn Ray is just trying to stir up shit for his radio show and that's the extent of it.

It's good to know he's using RXMUSCLE.COM as a vehicle to promote his show. :)

That MD post about Kevin was so fucking lame, calling RX Muscle a "upstart" site. Just a cheap shot as they are already worried about whats happening over here!!

02-11-2009, 02:19 PM
Actually, this is an upstart site. By definition this is exactly what it is. You can't blame Shawn for using this as an attempt to give his show attention. But it makes you wonder just how much actual content there will be.

02-11-2009, 02:54 PM
Whats incredibly sad about that S Ray sticky about Levrone is that you got about 20+ replies from people on the site saying how stupid, childish, and sad it is for them to resort to these measure and 3 posts arguing that it isn't ...and all 3 posts are from MODS lulz!! Epic backfire.

I tell yah when this first went down and people complained and Shawn said: if you don't like it then leave... and Flex was like: Goodbye!... it just showed that they really did not understand the unity and power the members had.
They may have directed those words to one or two people but it was like those one or two people were speaking for us and therefore the response was directed at us and that just added fuel to the fire. You have two of the greatest BB ever... fighting and speaking down to us..the fans!! Well each person is one less listener, one less poster..one less autograph seeker..one less dvd or photo buyer....

Sorry for the long rant I'm just very dissapointed in Flex and Shawn and it shows the power of the almighty dollar. How someone nicknaked THE BOSS that looks like a cross between a white Urkle and a gay Clark Kent after Chemo could use his money to drive a wedge in the community.

Ill always respect them for there accomplishments on the stage but I aint wasting a single dime on any products or endorsements they are attached to.

I hope Steve Urkleman is paying them royaly cus in the end there gonna be loosing a hell of alot....

you would think with such few outlets and how underground the culture is we could all get along and the sport could grow more downloadable shows....radio....more forums...meh.....

Sad day indeed.

Another failed attempt by Blechman to convince his readers that he knows what people want. and another plan backfiring. When is he going to get it through his head that he knows nothing about the Internet culture? he obviously thinks all of you are idiots and Shawn is his dog.

I honestly don't understand how anybody....and I mean anybody....who understands the least little bit about the words "integrity", "honesty", "forthrightness", and "trustworthy" can in their right minds continue to support the MD entity. By Blechman's own actions he condemns himself to being supported by mindless sheep with no balls of their own to stand up for what is simply "the right thing to do."

Granted...I understand some people have mouths to feed and bills to pay....but if it were me...I would find another company to work for as soon as I was able.

I just posted this at MD but it probably wont last long:

I am just calling it as I see it. If you ban me then so be it but this is truth. I am not an anti-MD pro Dave and John. I like every other intelligent individual out there can take the information that is given, process it and make our own conclusions. Same as with a jury trial. You present your sides of the case and 12 peers decide your fate based on the strength of your case.




I am COMPLETELY confused at this point!!!

So John & Dave can put all untrue statements about both MD & Blechman and the world buys it. But the one time we post that Kevin Levrone knew nothing of the Q&A and even asked Dave about it (which Dave denied) MD IS THE BAD GUY....the one "lie" we post - everyone comes down on us.

Steve has taken the high road and has not responded to their show, the statement by John, or the THOUSANDS of other remarks made his way by not only them but the community as well - but he and MD are assholes???

WTF are we dealing with here? What is the deal with the one way street...

In addition my mods are not over there bashing them.....

here's a question for TJOE - hmmm - used to be a FL or Mod here and left to go there - SO WHY ARE YOU STILL HERE??? If you have nothing to say that is positive then say nothing. Trust me - no one will miss you if you go......I have no problem replacing garbage with gold!!!

By the way - not only have our members increased over the last week, but our subscriptions did as well!!!

Our May Issue is going to be an absolutely amazing product!!!! With contributors that will blow your mind away!!! Md has lost nothing - in fact we have gained substantially... Stay tuned - it will hit the newsstands 3/31!!!!
Michelle........Steve had a golden opportunity to set the record straight. He chose to wait 2 days and give a politically correct slack ass statement that painted Dave as a slacker. Well I frequent the boards enough to know that between running a radio show, contest coverage, running a participaitng in multiple threads (to include his sucessful Q&A thread) and using the synergy of his affiliation with up and comers to the site and the MD world. If thats slacking then hell I dont know what work is. ( I maintain my own site BTW so I know how time consuming it can be).

The average poster here can tell you how many hours a day they spend on here and appreciate the time EVERYONE takes to respond.

He chose to insult our collective intelligence by posting a 10 liner for a 1000 line issue. If it was actually as simple as he put it then it would have been simple to resolve.

The other side presented a more detailed case vs. left us with more information to base our decision on. Plain and simple.

You all here fueled the fire by banning members, TO'ing everone with comment in contrary as well as deleting LEGITIMATE threads and post that were well written and not at all one sided.

Now you go to the point where you are down talking members and subscribers to yet further polarize the community as a whole. You had supporters and in this thread alone you pissed on at least 3 that I can count that "had your back"

There is a point when you are on a trip that you have half a tank left and should probably stop for gas and re-fuel or take a chance drive on by and not finding a gas station, run out of gas and are left to think about your decision in the middle of nowhere.

Think about that next time you chose to insult your customer base.

OMG please Flex Nooooooooooooooooooooo. (In that "you are walking into a live minefield voice) Let's get to the meat shall we??? On NO BULL radio usually the first time any controversy was brought up i.e. Ryan Knelley and Mark the wrestler the first thing Dave would say is: We have to get (insert the other party here) on here next week to tell his side. That obviously wont happen here. So any reference to the other site should be kept to a minimun as they will more than linkey not be allowed to respond.

When I first joined my space I was looking for everyone in the industry to include you and guess what there were at least 10 Flex Wheeler's. Did you hunt and sue them? Did you consider it newsworthy? Right now (I just checked) there are 3 people using your name and 3 using your picture as theirs. Bottom line is that it happens EVERY DAY on every social site in the industry. So as far as it being breaking news well maybe for the Mom's at the grocery store that sitll read the Star and Enquirer.

i haven't seen anyone in this thread say they don't respect you, shawn, or kevin. i certainly never would. but that isn't the issue, and it is a straw man to suggest that this is some sort of ad hominem attack against any of you. it isn't. people are saying that this sort of post, put on the front page and stickied on the board, is clearly done for the purpose of generating animosity toward the "upstart" board. and that's just lame.
Whats really crazy about this is that this was posted about noon today on this site. The gimmick account (that didnt have an image BTW.......a pic was never used) was already gone by 7:35 pm YESTERDAY. There is even a link to the LEGIT M3 site. It was debunked by Dave before it was ever "newsworthy".

I'll bet you believe everything you see on the news, too...

They logged over 1000 new members in 2 days. They don't need to resort to this kind of thing to generate traffic.
They are currently well over 1000 at this point and the most successful threads over there have nothing to do with the controversy.

Guy, let me tell you that even at my level someone has stole my pics and put them up as theirs. I kindly told the Admin and that was that.

If he was so image concious (and I am a Levrone fan BTW) he should go after the current 5 members of myspace using his Name and Image as we speak one of which says that he is Kevin right along the legit Kevin site.

I just posted this at MD but it probably wont last long:

I am just calling it as I see it. If you ban me then so be it but this is truth. I am not an anti-MD pro Dave and John. I like every other intelligent individual out there can take the information that is given, process it and make our own conclusions. Same as with a jury trial. You present your sides of the case and 12 peers decide your fate based on the strength of your case.



Michelle........Steve had a golden opportunity to set the record straight. He chose to wait 2 days and give a politically correct slack ass statement that painted Dave as a slacker. Well I frequent the boards enough to know that between running a radio show, contest coverage, running a participaitng in multiple threads (to include his sucessful Q&A thread) and using the synergy of his affiliation with up and comers to the site and the MD world. If thats slacking then hell I dont know what work is. ( I maintain my own site BTW so I know how time consuming it can be).

The average poster here can tell you how many hours a day they spend on here and appreciate the time EVERYONE takes to respond.

He chose to insult our collective intelligence by posting a 10 liner for a 1000 line issue. If it was actually as simple as he put it then it would have been simple to resolve.

The other side presented a more detailed case vs. left us with more information to base our decision on. Plain and simple.

You all here fueled the fire by banning members, TO'ing everone with comment in contrary as well as deleting LEGITIMATE threads and post that were well written and not at all one sided.

Now you go to the point where you are down talking members and subscribers to yet further polarize the community as a whole. You had supporters and in this thread alone you pissed on at least 3 that I can count that "had your back"

There is a point when you are on a trip that you have half a tank left and should probably stop for gas and re-fuel or take a chance drive on by and not finding a gas station, run out of gas and are left to think about your decision in the middle of nowhere.

Think about that next time you chose to insult your customer base.


OMG please Flex Nooooooooooooooooooooo. (In that "you are walking into a live minefield voice) Let's get to the meat shall we??? On NO BULL radio usually the first time any controversy was brought up i.e. Ryan Knelley and Mark the wrestler the first thing Dave would say is: We have to get (insert the other party here) on here next week to tell his side. That obviously wont happen here. So any reference to the other site should be kept to a minimun as they will more than linkey not be allowed to respond.

When I first joined my space I was looking for everyone in the industry to include you and guess what there were at least 10 Flex Wheeler's. Did you hunt and sue them? Did you consider it newsworthy? Right now (I just checked) there are 3 people using your name and 3 using your picture as theirs. Bottom line is that it happens EVERY DAY on every social site in the industry. So as far as it being breaking news well maybe for the Mom's at the grocery store that sitll read the Star and Enquirer.


Whats really crazy about this is that this was posted about noon today on this site. The gimmick account (that didnt have an image BTW.......a pic was never used) was already gone by 7:35 pm YESTERDAY. There is even a link to the LEGIT M3 site. It was debunked by Dave before it was ever "newsworthy".


They are currently well over 1000 at this point and the most successful threads over there have nothing to do with the controversy.


Guy, let me tell you that even at my level someone has stole my pics and put them up as theirs. I kindly told the Admin and that was that. If I wanted to right now I could probably start a url with your real name and there would be nothing you could do about it other than complain and lose the battle. Its the internet............times have changed.

It's all bullshit from MD (what else?) Dave just got off the phone with both Shawn and Kevin. Shawn admitted the order came from higher up - he was told to stir up controversy. Blechman still thinks that's what sells. Kevin is cool with us and pissed at shawn.

Another failed attempt by Blechman to convince his readers that he knows what people want. and another plan backfiring. When is he going to get it through his head that he knows nothing about the Internet culture? he obviously thinks all of you are idiots and Shawn is his dog. thats what I figured, kind of pathetically childish! just look at thier homepage it is a desperate attempt do bash you and Dave,when will steve learn he lost?

Have you read the thread? After Shawn made the thread a sticky a large majority of the replies were angry and negative... and those were the ones that WEREN'T deleted! To use something so stupid and petty as a gimmick account using the name "Kevin Levrone" to promote your upcoming show... wow, they must be DESPERATE! I hope they have more than that, and a preview of the Arnold, planned for their premier show!

but looking at that it doesn't appear that kevin is upset at all at this "upstart" site. it looks like he's upset at the guy who pretended to be him. well, fine. but then you have to wonder what he's so worried about since the gimmick account is long gone. what is he upset about now? and surely he can't hold dave or john responsible for some random internet douche creating a gimmick. jesus, if wolf got this upset and featured on radio shows every time used his name in their account username he'd never have time to train.

i was thinking the exact same thing! i'm reading all that garbage wondering why the hell they aren't promoting having athletes competing in the arnold on their first show. i mean, i would have a blowout with everyone on there. get every athlete you have who's making an appearance on your inaugural show.

You can admire the physique without saying that the person is god's gift to man. Shawn and Flex both have great physiques, but from every interaction I've had with them and from seeing their actions in public, they are both men of weak character and I don't envy or admire either of them. Great physiques, just not great people.

What negative post made by "Rx" are on there? Only post I've seen where made by former MD subscribers that are upset about the new changes. Not to mention MD won't even accept the fact that their "new" changes are being rejected by subscribers. It's not a one way of thinking, it's just a horrible way to do business when a developed company slanders the image of a smaller (as in start up) company. It's just pathetic and unprofessional thing to do regardless of the bitter feelings they have about losing subscribers. If they want to show what type of company they are and keep the following they do have they should be promoting thier "new content"...not taking jabs at the ventures of their former employees. In actuality all it really does is show just how much Dave and John's departure has effected the company, not to mention MD brought the entire situation on themselves. They went out their way to shoot themselves in the foot, now their pouring salt in the wound.

From a very good "friend of ours:"

Jon and Dave,

OMG. I was just checking out the "Kevin Levrone is Pissed Off" thread at MD.

Members are badly trashing both Shawn and Flex by telling them that Kevin
is a "cry baby" and that Shawn and Flex are just giving "lame" excuses, like
they are just reporting "The News." I'm not sure, but this may be the most fun I have ever had on the MD site. You guys started a culture of "No Bull" and it rages on. Steve looks like a total fool and now all of this kiss ass employees are looking really bad
too. Shawn is becoming a joke. Really. What a lil' bitch he is. Everybody is now showing their true colors. I love this kind of action. This has turned into a comedy. "As the world of bodybuildingturns." I amy become addicted to watching the fall of MD. LOL
