It will be 10 years this year that Phil has been competing. The attached pic was from his first show in 02 where he won the Northern Colorado and this show wasn't a national qualifier.
I had the privilege of meeting him on 03 when I competed with him at the Colorado State show (and in the same show in 04).
I remember fondly arguing on the board with douches and haters that he would turn pro and I put up with a lot of shit defending my friend until he turned pro in 05 on his first attempt.
This year he will win his 2nd Olympia title unless he walks into an airplane propeller and loses an arm. Even then, he might still pull it off.
I have video of the 03 Colorado State where I was standing next to him during prejudging but I can't figure out how to get it uploaded to a computer because it is on a cassette from a camcorder.
