Jeff, Congrats at winning your class. I saw it and was in total agreement with it. The overall was very close....Wow you look huge! You looked bigger than Kiyoshi IMHOP.

Sorry didn't get a chance to say what's up, it was late and I was with a group that needed to get back.

Good stuff man!

Jeff! Congrats man , you really did a great job at the T U. You told me to ask you what yu had to eat to celebrate so lets hear it!
Another question, bit of a touchy subject but i gotta ask after seeing the complete pic's of all the classes. What does it do to you emotionally or inside when you see competitors in the comp who have obviously been using drugs? Once again great job

For what it's worth, I think you have a far more aesthetic physique/structure than the overall winner.

competitors in the comp who have obviously been using drugs?

That's for sure.

No doubt about it!

Congrats Jeff, gonna move up a weight class and gun for the overall next year... and going to the Worlds? Looked great as usual

Pure dedication in that photo, lol. Cooking in the bathroom...

Interesting that you weighed a little less than last year (if I remember correctly) and are definitely thicker all the way around. Good luck. Victory is on the horizon.

Yeah, funny how that worked out. I think I had a bit more muscle this year but was a pound lighter (on the day of weigh ins). How, I have no idea. I give up basing things on how much I weigh.

LOL thanks so much for the info. Talk about a cool guy. Day before the show and you are giving advice on Hostels in NY Seems like a pretty good place to stay, just checked out the link. Thanks.

You prob won't read this, but I'll be following the play by play and rooting for you jrod. Rip it up.

Leigh

Haha, thanks, Leigh. Yeah it was a good place to stay; they even have a kitchen (fridge and stove) downstairs.

Turns out I wont be able to review the other place for you as I wont be staying there. I'm at Dave's house as I type and will be leaving for home tomorrow, so will only have stayed at that one hostel. Again, I'd recommend it. Have fun on your trip out here.

[jrod]

I definitely plan on coming back in 09, just want to make sure I will be competitive at the Team U. If everything works out well I will be there.

You looked phenomenal today and I am rooting for you Jeff. Wish you the best of luck in the overall posedown.

Nice, then I guess I will see you next year!

Thanks very much for the nice words. Yeah, it was SOOOOOOO late. I expected to get on stage at around 8, 8:30pm but didnt get on till 10:30 or 11pm!!! So now worries, I understand. Next year...

I'll respond to this with a picture. Its on my camera, but cable is at home so let me get back to you tomorrow when I'm home (really looking forward to getting back). I'll post a few of my own pictures, too.

As for the touchy subject part; I REALLY don't mind answering tough questions, touchy subject questions, etc... Those are the best, most interesting ones! I'll repsond tomorrow, though. I'm just killing a few minutes while I wait to call in for NBR!
