I think he might do the Arnold, I think he was a little hard on him self in the interview and I think if he had more prep time he could of brought a better more competitive package for the o. Kai and phill haven't improved drastically since 09 IMHO but they have improved.
Been on the natty train for this long ain't getting off it now.

Jay wont retire this year or even next year in my opnion.
He loves the birght lights, the star image, the shine and flair, and of course, the money.
Dont get me the wrong way... i love this guy personalety.
But at the end of the day, jay might be the biggest ifbb pro Bodybuilder business man there is or even ever was...
Ronnie got smarter just at the end of his career and lunched his own supp company, same goes to lee labrada and rich gaspari...
Arnold lunched it 40 years or so after his done.
Jay did it NOW! while still competeting.
It might not be HIS company, but he will want to "PUSH" it to us... the amature bb's so he'll get his name and legacy on the wall of fame as the top dog, and also, more $$$$
Thats jay...

He did poorly the 1st day, but the 2nd day he was 4th, ahead of Rhoden and Dex. He said he only trained 10 weeks for the Olympia, which is nothing really. I'm not saying that he will win it again, but if he were to go at it again and show up in good condition with previous size, he would get top 3. I don't see Dennis Wolf improving his physique, best he can do is come in conditioned, so that 3rd spot could be Jay's next time.....

I think he will. If for anything, he'll do it for the fans and then for money.... In that order. All those sponsors will dry up quick if he's not competing. He can hype an Olympia like no other. With all those vids and pics he posted leading up to the O, he had all kinds of people wondering if he could pull it off.
I don't always do squats on leg day, but when I do, I go ASS TO THE GRASS!

Jay even said himself that the top 3 were beyond him even if he showed up with what he thought would be his best. The top 3 are also a lot younger and can make improvements whereas Jay is starting to go down the hill on the other side.
As for the post above, the money that Jay makes competing is dwarfed by the revenues from his endorsements, sponsorship and merchandising. This Olympia was as much about competing again without a torn biceps as it was about promoting himself. He'd have won the Mr O if it was judged on pre-competition publicity, and that's where his strength lies now - his legacy and image.
I think he made a lot of fans with this effort. Not only by competing after that layoff but with his media work (documentaries, interviews etc) and his personality.He will only compete again if it makes financial sense.Carlsberg don't do sexy, but if they did...

I'd like to see him train for a full year, gain size, comeback at the 2014 Mr. O and see what happens. If he gets big again and comes in with the same condition, who knows what can happen? I thought he looked pretty good on Saturday.
But I don't think he's hungry enough. He's got 4 titles, he knows he has no shot at tying Ronnie and Lee, so I don't know if he's got what it takes to go up against Phil, Kai nd the rest of those guys.

Why would he? His back is as bad as Branch's back and he wouldn't make top 5 anyway. Jay should retire and focus on his supplement company and other businesses that he owns.

Never been a Jay fan, never will be a Jay fan. As a matter of fact, Ronnie should've won in '06.
But I still think he could look much better if he had a full year of training, eating and therapy.
He should even look into training with Charles Glass.
But if he retires, good for him. Ain't no one knocking down Phil, anyway.
