    I don't agree with a tie, that's like a kids softball game where they play with no score.

    Someone should have won these guys bust their butt to get recognize . Although both men are winners for giving it their all one of them should have been the victor.

    There is no crying in bodybuilding.
    RATHER LAUGH WITH THE SINNERS THAN CRY WITH THE SAINTS...

    Who are you to tell me how to conduct myself? Do yourself a favor, practice safe sex and go fuck yourself!

    That was kind of how I felt about it as well.

    You have every right to feel that way about it, you and Mike, you guys bust your ass. I doubt anyone of you would have had your feelings "hurt" if you lost. You both know you guys already won in the great scheme of things, but at he very least, only you two guys showed up, so one of you should have walk away the victor.

    IMO a tie was a slap in the face for both of you.

    I wouldn't see it as a slap in the face, but I doubt I would have voted for that conclusion. They could have simply given a righteous prize package to the "loser".

    Don't believe I've ever heard of a tie in physique competition.

    Regardless, congratulations to both athletes!
