Topic: Arnold S how on cable
Just found this online. We get OLN here, it's the cable station that plays bull riding at 2 am. So naturally, they'll show bodybuilding. Bodybuilding shows, in general, are kind of boring to me, even though I follow the sport. I appreciate the hard work it takes to get there more than the posing in their underwear.
Arnold Classic is in Columbus every year, so it's a big deal here.
Here is the cable schedule for watching the 2006 Arnold Classic for August. The contest will be on the OLN Network, seen by over 72 million households.
