It'll be worth checking the official competitor list for fbb again in a couple of days as I'm sure there will be a few more names added to the current list.

Dead right charliew that always happens. Though I doubt you'll be seeing a Tina Chandler or Khalla Bullemor join the ranks.

From that list, the ones I am looking forward to are as follows:

1. Jaqueline Fuchs: one of the best looking fbbs out there
2. Aleesha Young: I shiver in anticipation of what her physique will be like, given that she has had so much time to prepare.
3. Margie Martin: this newcomer's physique is very exciting
4. Angela Debatin: I've never seen this legend before

And that's it. (Irene Andersen and Virginia Sanchez are nice too, but I've seen them before)

Is the show worth going to with this weak a field? IMO yeah, barely, for the four I mentioned. But still, this has to be the weakest field in years.

Actually take Margie Martin off that list. She was thick as a sirloin steak when she was first competing, she looks a lot scrawnier this year.

So I'm only looking forward Aleesha, Jay and Angela at this point. But as charliew pointed out, hopefully the list gets updated in the next couple of days.

i think Emery Miller is competing

Emery miller don´t compite some days ago she say she is pregnant i her facebook account Irene andersen she wanna win this one

... The F%#k ? Emery is nearing if not over 50. I'm not saying it's totally impossible (Thanks mainly to assisted reproductive technology) but I would like to have an official confirmation of that...

She won't be pregnant but even if she does compete this line up doesn't really look great and IMO her physique is not what it was and won't add to the quality of competitor list. Where have the Rene Marvens and Shannon Courtneys gone? The future looked bright for a while.

Not sure why Rene dropped off the radar but Shannon's doing an Ironman-type competition circut now.

Trouble is that some of the high profile competitors we typically see at this show, like Lisa Cross, Christine Envall and 'Nique Jones,
have already won or placed high in earlier shows, have qualified for the Rising Phoenix show, and therefreo don't have to show
up at the Tampa.

I'm just hoping that Jay Fuchs and Aleesha Young are so hot we don't even notice.

I believe Deniz Faith (Sweden) and Maria Segura will also compete..at least I hope

Margie Martin is NOT scrawny!
